Does no one think Troy can recapture his form and fitness? He ain't that old. If he can catch a shag looking like that I have my faith in him catching anything my friend.
smr Posted 4 July 2017 Posted 4 July 2017 no thanks, looks and plays like a sunday league player from barry bethel town fc.

fleshdaddy Posted 4 July 2017 Posted 4 July 2017 A year or two ago, maybe - even then I'd have probably sided with no. But now? No thanks. He wouldn't improve us, Slimani is better.
StanSP Posted 4 July 2017 Posted 4 July 2017 14 minutes ago, Spiritwalker said: 2 yrs ago - yes 1 yr ago - maybe now - no 25m for a player who can't get a game for Watford - don't take the piss. the only reason he didn't get a game for Watford recently was because he and Mazzarri didn't get on. Mazzarri was a massive **** and used his authority to drop him, much to the misery of other players. If he's at Watford by the start of the season he'll be starting no doubt.
Ric Flair Posted 4 July 2017 Posted 4 July 2017 We are obsessed with strikers aged 29-30. We need a younger striker with a point to prove to push Vardy and Slimani. Deeney to Leicester has passed now surely. We'd be in danger of spending over £45 million on 3 players all uncapped by their country, disturbing.
Lcfcwigstonblue Posted 4 July 2017 Posted 4 July 2017 John Cross is a very reliable journalist not one to write something without good evidence.

Musa's got caps galore, see where that left us!!
Wortho Posted 4 July 2017 Posted 4 July 2017 It's a no from me. He's become a real moaner if things don't go right on the pitch. Wrong attitude imo.
Ric Flair Posted 4 July 2017 Posted 4 July 2017 Just now, Marshall Cockney Fox said: I'd say proven premiership experience and ability trumps an international cap. Musa's got caps galore, see where that left us!! I'd tend to agree to an extent but there's a danger we're paying over the odds for players that might not be that good. This is the predicament a lot of PL clubs find themselves in. It's easier in the Championship, less money and less expectation. We recruited so well under Pearson but recently I'm scared shitless by our approach. Deeney in to replace Okazaki and Ulloa, I could just about stomach but not for the price being quoted.
Super_horns Posted 4 July 2017 Posted 4 July 2017 If we had more strikers and "HG" players we'd probably consider the bid more..

EnglishOxide Posted 4 July 2017 Posted 4 July 2017 All these offers we've put in for him, and he has not once asked Watford to accept a bid. I'm not sure he wants to come here as much as we've shown over the years to want him here. Forget him.
adamlcfcbevo85 Posted 4 July 2017 Posted 4 July 2017 20 mill honestly not worth 7 mill now stay clear rather have Chris wood back
KFS Posted 4 July 2017 Posted 4 July 2017 This could be a diversion for Iheanacho? John Percy been taken for a mug?

lgfualol Posted 4 July 2017 Posted 4 July 2017 We deffo are going to give West Brom a run for most dull team next season. Expecting us to replace one of our interesting players in Mahrez with someone who is probably a defensive winger.
sdb Posted 4 July 2017 Posted 4 July 2017 Worse than Slimani. Why would we do this? 29 and benched by Watford last season. Not inspired at all.
AjcW Posted 4 July 2017 Posted 4 July 2017 As much as I like him and can’t believe some of the personal stick he is getting on here I do feel like 25-30 million could get Dembele from Celtic....whether he would join us is a different question altogether.
mikey54 Posted 4 July 2017 Posted 4 July 2017 Definitely have mixed feelings about this. Having said that, I felt the same when we bought Speedie - that turned out alright (ok we didn't shell out a lot for him) Can you imagine the reaction had Foxestalk been around back then?
