Clockwork Cheese Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 Yeah, can't see there much in Zapata talk. I'm sure the club has sounded out and made various degrees of contact on many players that we're hearing about. Deals like the Diego Carlos, Botman, and Lingard are the ones that have gone the distance to be taken serious in my opinion - the rest is just fluff and guff from Twitter and the various creatures surrounding the interest of Newcastle United and this transfer window. Just doesn't make sense to me we'd spend £25M on Wood when we're ready to commit to spending £40M on someone levels above in Zapata. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not saying I think Zapata is a goer but I don't know why the bold would be so farfetched. We've got one PL quality striker and he's made of glass, hence us desperately punting on Wood. I'd be very concerned if they consider getting him as being job done on the striker front. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slim Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 Sheff United paid £23.5 million for Rhian Brewster who has scored 0 prem goals for them and 2 in the championship. Granted he is a lot younger and can improve but don't think 25 Million means that much tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, heaven help us. Let’s hope we’re never in Man City’s position of having to splash £100m on an attacking midfielder when they already have Foden, Silva, De Bruyne, Mahrez… Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 1 minute ago, ManDoon said: Yeah and Zapata is also really good. He'll be 31 in April, that would mean 3 strikers at the club around 30yrs in age, for a combined fee of about £70m. Actually it doesn't sound that bad when you look at it like that.

PeepShow4life Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 Don't understand why we are in for Zapata if it's true. We should have gone for him instead of Wood but too late now. We don't create many chances so not sure why we would want two big, physical strikers up front. We should be going for more of a winger/striker with pace imo.

toontownman Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 Zapata would be absolutely immense. He is a beast. Agree it seems like absolute press rubbish though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 Zapata could actually be a reason we’d stay up. He’d bang in some of these half chances and bully defenders. He’s an upgrade on Wilson tbh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lush Vlad Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 7 minutes ago, ManDoon said: certainly not slow, definitely physical He would be our only player that uses both feet. Sign him up for that alone! In all seriousness, his numbers and highlights make it seem like he'd automatically be our best source of goals and assists.
