Wouldn't go for him yet though, give it another year to see how he progresses there. 42 minutes ago, Harry96 said: He’s certainly a good player however not sure if he’s ready to step up yet. 53 minutes ago, Ric Flair said: He's very good but probably needs one more season in the Championship before he's the finished article. More of a goalscorer than creator but very fast and physical. Buy then loan back for a season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like he is strong and built for the premier league. Do you honestly think he could make the step up if a team signed him in this window?

I really think he could, he's adapted so well to English football in just one year, very strong and powerful with a good turn of speed as well, will do well with you, but with the attention he's now getting he won't come as cheap as chips anymore.

OadbyBlue Posted 27 August 2020 Share Posted 27 August 2020 15 goals from the wing last season (granted in the championship, though Gray only got 6 in his last full season in brum and that was his highest scoring season), exactly the kinda player we need. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbtcity Posted 27 August 2020 Share Posted 27 August 2020 I’d take him and if I’m being honest I’d have him over Benrahma... he’s exactly what we’re lacking at rw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suzie the Fox Posted 27 August 2020 Share Posted 27 August 2020 Brentford fans say he is the real deal, some of our fans turn their nose up. Since i don't know much about him i know who's opinion i will go with for now 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mint23 Posted 27 August 2020 Share Posted 27 August 2020 From what I’ve seen he’s the least developed of Brentford’s front 3 but also has the most potential. Could we buy him and loan him back for a year with maybe another player thrown in on loan to sweeten the deal? Maybe let them have KDH for 12 months?

Popular Post Ric Flair Posted 27 August 2020 Popular Post Share Posted 27 August 2020 I feel if we signed Mbuemo and Edouard that we could afford to let Iheanacho go. Mbuembo could play alongside Vardy in a 3-4-1-2 or out wide in our favoured 4-1-4-1. I think Rodgers wants wide players like Barnes and possibly Mbuembo that are comfortable playing up front so that the systems can be chopped and changed easily. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m with you 100% but I’m not sure he’s quite ready for the prem yet and I’d rather us buy him now than wait another 12 months and he cost us an extra £10m because he has a belting season and helps Brentford win promotion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good positioning/movement, average dribbling for a winger, poor finishing at times from what ive seen. Was dropped for a few games post lockdown due to being out of form.

They have to hit the ground running if we are going to pay £15-20m for a player right now. I think we have about £75m to spend this window and we need at least 4 players.
