...and get even more points deducted. Not sure I agree!

It was a joke mate, in response to us being linked with loads of players in a short space of time.

Brentford, Frankfurt, Fulham, Porto and us still in the running according to the original tweet, from a Colombian journalist, over 200k followers.

We’re going to have to put up the most money now because as soon as anyone else enters the race we’re last in line of desired destinations 

[Clarkey123]

And is this kid really going to change our fortunes? Where are the striker links

Asprilla will have us as his 5th favourite club to join based on the list above. No chance. Get it locked and direct ALL traffic to the Ayew thread.

Hasn’t been all season, obvs going somewhere, just prob not to us 

[Sunbury Fox]

Close this thread. If he has other options, which seems to be the case, there is no chance he'll choose to join us.

Yep close all transfer threads and move the Ayew thread to the Rudkin thread, this so we can kill two birds with one stone when the announcement is made next week.

I don’t know much about him, but someone I know is a Watford fan and was saying he would be one to watch. That meant I looked out for him a bit and was never hugely impressed.

 

I’m almost at the point where I’d rather we didn’t for that sort of price.

This thread will close on page 22 as another team buys him

How’s about close you instead

Not sure I even want this guy.

 

Need a centre forward, Left back and DM in that order.

We need some creativity in the worst way.

I would argue that in the attacking positions behind the striker we have Fatawu, Mav, Argie, Alves, Kasey and Bobby so enough to rotate whereas we are an injury to Winks away from a mess in that area. 
 

Im no fan of Hamza either and so there’s literally no decent back up to our strongest double pivot. 
 

Soumare a waste of space.

 

So yes in my opinion back up to Winks and Ndidi should be a priority ahead of buying another winger/10.

Won’t be able to get the ball to our 8 or 10 if Winks gets injured.

 

I would much rather us get a proper centre forward in, an attacking left back and rotation option (such as Amir Richardson) for Winks/Ndidi ahead of someone like Asprilla who would limit the development of Alves and Kasey.

Personally feel we need a box to box monster! 

 

Powerful all rounder.

That's no different is it. You're quoting players for 3 positions behind the striker, some of which are very much academy/fringe players. We have 3 players already in the DM role in Winks, Ndidi and Hamza so whilst I agree in an ideal world we'd want to improve that if we could, it's way down the list of priorities.

If Winks gets injured, who plays there?

Do you think Wilf is up to it?

soumare,wilf and hamza  to name a few 

Sammy braybrooke can play there?

Hes clearly not half the player he was 3-4 years ago.

 

It we are relying on Hamza this season and he leads the side out on Monday I’ll absolutely lose the plot.

Soumare is Poo.

 

Wilf isn’t a DLP.

 

Hamza is Hamza.

 

Id love Braybrooke to get opportunities. Same with Alves.
