For $6m may have been a gamble worth taking yeah. Although the new work permit rules would probably have been a problem. Will look forward to seeing him in the MLS, watch a fair amount of that league, it's pretty exciting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Work permit would have been fine, played in the final of the Copa Libertadores this season, would have shit work permit points for fun. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clever Fox Posted 27 April 2021 Share Posted 27 April 2021 4 hours ago, An Sionnach said: Might get him on loan if we can afford his wages. He won't be staying at Fulham that is for sure. He can be very good to terrible. We don't need that and not at his likely high Salary. I think we can do better, Someone like Soucek at WH. 6 ft 4 box to box midfielder who also scores goals. That's what we need. And the bought him for 19 Million. approx. Dacoure was another we missed. We need to find the next one that's out there playing.

Ric Flair Posted 27 April 2021 Share Posted 27 April 2021 I know it's highly likely Edouard is going to be our main target this summer but I'd like us to go for Jonas Wind from Copenhagen. He's an all round centre forward who is strong and quick so can lead the line on his own or drop in and link play. Doesn't get the hype that Haland gets for obvious reasons but like Isak is another quality young Scandinavian forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NasPb Posted 28 April 2021 Share Posted 28 April 2021 Some relegated players that we should be interested in Serdar Harit Lookman Andersen (Fulham) Rafa mir Maybe Ryan guald? Just bored so took a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dayday Posted 28 April 2021 Share Posted 28 April 2021 Somebody I would love us to sign is Eze from Palace, can play left, central and right wing. Probably out of price range now though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just bored so took a look. I wouldn't mind Serdar - the kind of midfielder we could do with in the squad. If Bournemouth don't win the play-offs, I'd throw Phillip Billing into that area too. I certainly think a rangy box-to-box type would be a nice option. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
An Sionnach Posted 28 April 2021 Share Posted 28 April 2021 One thing about Edouard is although he ticks a lot of boxes , he is unlikely to make an instant impact . All his goals have been scored against lower standard defences. He will need to sharpen his thinking considerably to outfox top class defences . So we should give him time to step up and not get on his back too quickly. He will probably be a impact sub for a while . If he shows he can work well with Iheanacho and Barnes though our attack could make the Vardy transition much more easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially strikers that feed off confidence. On the whole, I think we are pretty good in that respect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

murphy Posted 28 April 2021 Share Posted 28 April 2021 Apologies if this has been mentioned before, (if it has I haven't seen it), but Watford and Norwich's promotion will save The Premier League £83m in parachute payments that would have been due if they hadn't been promoted. This figure could increase if Bournemouth make it through the play offs. I believe that this translates as a windfall for each club of £4m+. Not to be sniffed at, that's a Jonny Evans or half a Justin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost like the Premier League is becoming a closed shop now making it very difficult for non-recent Championship clubs to get to the promised land. Next seasons promotees, WBA, Sheff Utd and Fulham?

It stops relegated clubs with players on PL contracts going bust but also gives them an unfair advantage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
