Unless he thinks there's a player already in the squad who can play the role. Personally I think it'd be a waste to play Ndombele at the base of midfield but if I'm not mistaken he played some minutes there before aggravating his injury, and there's also the possibility that he might play Gedson there. I agree it's bizarre, just as it was that Poch didn't make it a priority, but let's see how it plays out.Weird.

Mourinho doesn't want a DM now because it's arguably the most important position and he has someone planned for the summer we can't get now... Is my bet.
A sensible conclusion, but the Veruka Salt’s on here have an answer for you...Mourinho doesn't want a DM now because it's arguably the most important position and he has someone planned for the summer we can't get now... Is my bet.
I like Dragon1’s Bale ITK. That he is still being mentioned, he could still be an option. The question is how much of a financial punt does the bald one want to make..?

Even if we make a financial punt like that ( which is highly unlikely) it’s not just about us. Bale will need to take a significant pay cut ( not just to come to us, but most teams). Something it seems pretty clear to me Jonathon Barnett isn't prepared to do.
Either he's truly changed his style entirely, he thinks he's got a solution already, or he's got targets in mind that are not attainable in January and wants to keep his powder dry.How does the man who pioneered the “Makelele position” look at our team and say nah doesn’t need a defensive midfielder.
Because nobody good is available. And he will wait to get the right one in the summer. (Soumare maybe)That’s genuinely disappointing.

Fixed
Considering Skipp and Wanyama trained today which indicated that their departures aren’t imminent and the lack of quality ones that are feasible it makes sense to ride the season out best we can then address it properly in the summer.JJ just replied to me on Twitter basically saying Mourinho doesn't want a DM lmfao.
I’m sure he wants his cut of any deal, but as far as I can see a permanent transfer to another team sees him get paid. Regardless of what wages Bale ends up earning.
I find it hard to believe Bale is being forced to stay at Madrid because Barnett won’t allow him to take a pay cut.
Rose to Newcastle confirmed now btw. Loan until EOS
