The original Bild article says the release clause only applies from this summer - now they're saying it expires on 15th June? Must have been a very narrow window.

The Prophet Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 Absolutely gagging for us to hoy a bid in for Paqueta. He's exactly what we need, a hard working, goal scoring midfielder who can play up top or out wide if necessary. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
M1tche Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 I personally think DCL would be brilliant here. Yes he's had a bad season full of injury, but he's a monster physically and we've seen that once he gets his form he scores goals in the league. On par if not slightly better than Wilson for me Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
duo Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 DCL is a completely different type of striker to Wilson so am not sure he fits into the style of play Howe wants us to play. We've already a Target man in Wood - DCL doesn't make sense to me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanshithispantz Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 The fact he bought Wood who turned out to be shite surely indicates he would be interested in another target man? The ball sticks well with Wilson tbf to him but if he gets injured we're possibly fucked even if we do sign Ekitike. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

M1tche Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 If the rumours are ture and we're looking to sign Paqueta and Ekitike then i could see us looking to cash in on St Max this summer. Both those 2 look like they use the ball really well and also have that can beat a man x factor about them, where I think St Max is more exciting, but his ball usage is lacking at times and sometimes tries 1 trick too many. I'd love to have all 3, but i dont think we're at the stage of having players of that quality not playing week in week out unless we switch to a 4-2-3-1.

Hanshithispantz Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 As much as he can irritate you I would love to see him in a proper functioning side where he isn't automatically the main man. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I not doubting St Max's quality at all, I think he's class and hope he can also push onto the next a become a really top player. My point was in our current system having him, Ekitike and Paqueta 1 would have to ben on bench and they would rotate in and out as and when. We're not at the stage for that kind of luxury yet and could see any one of the 3 getting frustrated with the lack of game time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 Ekitike would likely start on the bench and push his way on eventually. It feels like it'd be invaluable to have that pressure on Max. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
M1tche Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 That's the obvious choice, but someone who seems quite highly rated, supposedly with a few decent options aswell coming to sit on the bench probably isnt something he's looking after a breakthrough season. It's bloody exciting to be discussing these sort of options though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WilliamPS Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 Bemused why some fans are so keen to sell the best players; ASM, Wilson, Dubs, Lascelles have all had people saying time to cash in. The old adage is pretty true; never sell your best players. imo none of the starters from the last season should be sold as there’s is a total absence of depth in the squad. The players to shift are the ones who couldn’t get a game Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
McCormick Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 Ekitike isn’t PL-ready imo. He’ll play second fiddle to Wilson until his inevitable season-ending injury, maybe a few cameos before that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Howe gives precedence to the player that was there until the player that wants in forces the issue. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
