Good job I didn't say the lazy cliche isn't it? I think it's alreet to different on this one personally mind. As I said to Rich, let's wait and see what the Fee is and the contract length then we can draw more conclusions. After all 25m on a 5 year deal isn't too bad (unless the wage is mad) 45m on a 3 year deal would obviously be insane.

Thanks for coming up with some targets, let's hope the club is on it.

i didnt mention exclusively, without those 4 names we wouldn't be sniffing champion's league.

Our transfer preferences appear to come from the manager. Our rival clubs aren't so fixated on premier league experience.
-
Yes, he's obviously one the manager likes as he's premier league proven (nothing wrong with this) but ultimately we can't always get the managers preference. The manager will likely not have a full understanding or amortisation or squad cost as the nature of the managers job is very much a focus on short term goals. It's why I mentioned as a club we really need to have a collaborative approach which involves trust across the entire team.

We have scouts. You can punt Sesko or Openda, guessed, goncalo Ramos you can dig out lots of names.

Your a canny fella, going to feed off some of your positively, sincerely.
-
Your absolutely right it is not but again let's not pretend that Wissa is the only striker who's available to buy this summer.

Good question, if we fill all of the gaps with players of the profile mentioned then yes, I think an exception would be ok. (Speaking personally to avoid any doubt) But for me, we need a keeper, some more cover at full back. A starting centre half and a CM. And maybe I have little faith but I'm not seeing it man.
-
No fretting we can and should aim to use our resources better that's all. But let's see how much the fee is if agreed and how long the contract is and that will dictate the cost and can be used as a point of comparison.

He's a Good player no denying that. My points are it may turnout to be expensive and he will lack sell on value. We should be looking at younger alternatives, I've made the point before but in our position we want to be able to pick and choose who we sell at any given time to make the most of market opportunities. We are not in a position where we are adding the final piece to the puzzle, ffp changes the entire dynamic of how we can operate in the transfer market. Take a look at our squad for example if we were tight on ffp and needed to raise funds we'd be forced into selling one of the players we really don't want to sell because we have a high of squad players who are ageing.

Wissa has proven himself in which champions league? Imo we need someone who can come in and improve season over season. Someone who is ideally 24 or younger but can come in and make an instant impact and learn from one of the best strikers in Europe. Someone along the lines of Tino or Hall who have had the benefit of training with Trips day and day out. Orsula is very raw because his development throughout his career hasn't been great. He barely played for a struggling Sheffield United side and continues to barely play for us. Obviously we need someone who's further along than that.

Pick a striker who is score more than 15 goals in any top 5 leagues and is below 24. Alternatively pick someone younger. Who can develop. Options exist.

Many alternative exist it's more a case of are we willing to roll the dice.
