Guest Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 They really are going to do a Leeds. They fucked up the Play Off Final 2-3 years after relegation and have not been close since. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roke Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Josh King is not as good as his hot shooting 2016/17 season would lead you to believe. https://statsbomb.com/2017/07/joshua-king-and-the-hot-foot/ If he were available for cheap I'd take him but £22m would be big mistake.

Si Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 time to lowball these cunts for Grealish We don't need to import arseholes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astroblack Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Agree. Feel like that 16 goal season was a plateau. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 We are 100% after King, fwiw. At a price we really shouldn't be. Interesting. What kind of price is being quoted? £22m. Bournemouth want more. Suspect that is what this recent press is all about. Crikey! £20m is about what I would have expected them to accept. That's really unfortunate and silly from their perspective. I imagine £22m could get us a really good striker from abroad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
buzza Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 I think he would be a definite upgrade on what we have, so if we think about getting 15-18million for Mitro, why not splash a couple of million more on the upgrade??? He was played out of position this year (why he´s moaning...), and likes to play the lone/further forward striker position which would fit perfectly into Rafa´s system. Big yes from me for only 20m Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big yes from me for only 20m Exactly. Mitro is going, and we could probably get £15m for Gayle as well if we wanted to. Imo we can refresh our attack into one that will play Rafas system without spending the earth. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chopey Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 My extensive scouting network has uncovered the following players Xherdan Shaqiri Abdoulaye Doucoure Richarlison Jack Grealish Hirving Lozano Kahraba Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mighty__mag Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 Not sure what the wankfest over Grealish is about. He doesn't look anything special and possibly a liability on dicipline, so im sure Rafa would give a move a wide birth. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are we really going to let Ashley take us from three shite strikers to none and back up to three (again, please God)? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are we really going to let Ashley take us from three shite strikers to none and back up to three (again, please God)? Well I'm on about if we were a functioning club obviously. I think Gayle will stick around and be backup to whoever comes in aye. Must rid ourselves of Joselu like but who on earth would take him? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raconteur Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 Well, I've defended Joselu in the past, but I'd rather sell him for buttons and keep Gayle - at least until the last week of the window. Any new #9 means we then need only find a third-stringer. But, as you say, much better to be run as a proper club; give Rafa a wedge and let him do the needful.

mrmojorisin75 Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 Ideally you want to strikers like King who can play alone up front and in the Perez spot when required. Suspect we'll see Joselu sticking around as striker number 4 in the Murphy squad spot for when we need to go more direct. Hard to see us overhauling it all like.

Mole_Toonfan Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 He's not that good, would bet money that if West Ham signed him he'd show up for like 6 games in a season at best. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twinport53 Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 Averages a goal/assist every 3 games in Ligue 1. Butttt it's Ligue 1 and he's 29 in a month. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean he's talented for sure, but consistency has always been a massive issue even going back to his Palermo days. I'd be absolutely shocked if he even performs more consistently than someone like Shaqiri. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HaydnNUFC Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 Probably comes under the deluded mag® mantra, but we were linked with Angel Correa last summer. Only has 1 year left on his current deal at Atleti. Nice to dream I suppose. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 Sporting are actively seeking a transfer for midfielder William Carvalho, Sky sources understand. There had been reports in the Portuguese media suggesting the 26-year-old had cancelled his contract, but instead both parties are trying to arrange a transfer to a Premier League Club. Everton have been strongly linked with the player who has previously played for new manager Marco Silva No idea if he is any good these days Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
