mrmojorisin75 Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 Attacking wise still feels to me like it'll be a number ten or striker. Hopefully it'll be someone the caliber of Jovetic should we be able to crowbar some more shit out of the door. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alberto2005 Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 We'll get a left back and that's it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zero Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 Jovetic is class but during the Man City era he failed to adapt to EPL and thus flopped back to Series A. I hope this gamble pays off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 Jovetic is class but during the Man City era he failed to adapt to EPL and thus flopped back to Series A. I hope this gamble pays off. Didn't he get injured straight away? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 He hardly started for City tbf and 8 goals in 28 isn't absolutely awful considering he's not a natural 9 anyway, if that's the low end of expectations i'd take it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPERTOON Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 Jovetic is class but during the Man City era he failed to adapt to EPL and thus flopped back to Series A. I hope this gamble pays off. We won't sign him so I wouldn't worry. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zero Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 Not really, I think we really want to sign him due to following reasons: 1. We are able to clear out Rivière and de Jong and that should allow us to sign one more 1xM range player, and 2. The rumour circulated in media for this summer is surprisingly accurate. The likes of Abraham Caballero etc all turns out to be correct. The major stumbling block now, imo, is whether we can offer attractive enough salaries to get him here.

Seymour Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 Have we only been in pursuit of a left back since August 23rd like? He seems pretty happy with Dummett being first choice Its only really since hes been injured Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 If we sign one genuinely significant upgrade like Jovetic then, imo, all of a sudden it becomes a not-bad window. It's still not ideal, and it'll have been reached via the most torturous (and potentially catastrophic) of means - but we'd look in a lot better shape. We'd have an upgrade at CB (Lejeune), an upgrade at CM (Merino) and an upgrade at CF (Jovetic). Would still need that goalie though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'd have an upgrade at CB (Lejeune), an upgrade at CM (Merino) and an upgrade at CF (Jovetic). Would still need that goalie though. Agree. We can still salvage the shitfest of this seasons transfer window with 1 real upgrade of striker. In an ideal world I would love a keeper and LB but that ain't gonna happen, barring Ashley undergoing biblical proportions of a conversion in the next day or so. If we can also offload Siem and even 1 or 2 others then, whilst being far from ideal, there will be some minor merit in it all. Of course we don't get nice things so it's all moot probably.

I would agree, but the problem is, I find it difficult to believe we'll get someone like that here, and from Rafa's quotes he seems to have very little faith in our board either.
