If this is the case and they really are going for one big name marquee type signing the list of options would be fairly small right now, unless you count the likes of Zapata as a big name of course. It would be someone whos north of 30 and doesnt start week in week out imo so Bale, PEA (please no), Navas and so on.

How are we going to sign one of those when we wouldn’t pay the wages for Coutinho or Digne because Howe doesn’t want to unsettle the squad? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who says we are ? We are talking completely hypothetical situation. Don’t believe the wage thing either, if someone truly world class was available and wanted to join you think we wouldn’t pay the wage ?

Emotic Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 Doesn't look like our style to take on ageing superstars to be fair..either aging players who are still good, or have something to prove, or under the radar/underrated younger stars. Can't see PEA or Bale. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

r0cafella Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 On the plus side, we don’t have long to wait for the surprise. To defend Ando preemptively, he did say all going to plan, we know a lot can go wrong in football. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We aren’t signing anyone ‘world class’. One for the reason I’ve already mentioned, secondly because they wouldn’t come with our position. Any signings would be in the Botman, Carlos, Bruno sort of area. Which is fantastic for us, obviously. I suspect we may end up trying again for Carlos, if anything.

Howe has said he doesnt want to unsettle the squad by bringing in someone on a massive wage, so you'd assume £100kish a week is about as high as we'll go right now Edit: See you what you are saying, wages might not even come into it Edited January 29, 2022 by Nine Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was reported by at least two journos (Hope and one of the Sky lot IIRC) that we didn’t even go in for them because of the wages. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
