Hanshithispantz Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 Never really saw mich in Broja when I've seen Southampton but Mandoon* rates him I think and I trust his judgement. *Where is he anyway? Account is gone Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
McCormick Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 Broja has all the tools to become a top striker. Would be a fine understudy to Wilson and, for similar money, is more PL-ready than Ekitike. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be amazing but is far, far off being realistic Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keegans Export Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 Broja wouldn't need to be named in the 25 either would he, if he's only 20? There are players I'd have above him on my shortlist but if its in the £20-25m mark I think it would be decent business. Still, this week will be all about outgoings I reckon. Need to start shifting some deadwood. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonBez comesock Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 (edited) K Downie again on Twitter , pushing loan striker and 1 more £££ (winger) if we have enough budget looks like the 80-85 million budget is true , which is fair enough to be honest laying some decent foundations all we have ever asked for, is for our owners / club to try …and we can’t fault them for that ??

Andy84 Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 (edited) Where has this stuff about Lingard come from? I’d say there is a little to no chance we will sign him. As for other major incomings I think it will be quiet for a few weeks and not heat up again mid to late July. There’ll definitely be players we are tracking and waiting on their availability Edited July 3, 2022 by Andy84 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 For me, I don't want us buying a striker unless they are the real McCoy. I don't mean that I'm against Broja, the opposite actually, I'm all for us finding a temporary solution up front until the right person comes along. I want the "Bruno/Botman", of the striking world and that's going to set us back 60m potentially, which means we need a window where its the sole (or just about) target to sign a top rank striker. In essence, we have too much to do this window to sign 5 or 6 players and a 60m striker. In 12 months it might be a different matter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 I don't know much about Broja, but any forward we buy really needs to be a finisher. We already have options like Almiron, Murphy and Fraser if we want hard working pacy lads who will inevitably produce weak end product. I'd be worried about spending significant money on someone who might turn out to be another Nicholas Bendtner. That said, other people probably know a lot more about Broja for me, if they reckon he's the real deal then fair enough. A loan deal would certainly be a good option.

That’s not comparable though is it We haven’t got billions in the kitty You can only spend a % of what you generate (and have around £105 million losses) over 3 seasons ? Or something along those lines if we had an endless pot we wouldn’t be looking at Broja on loan , targett as a 1st choice left back or £10m on pope , etc It appears we have a budget and need to spend wisely.

It will only work once though if we spend £150 million and all the reports/ reporters have been told the budget is/was £80-£90 million They can’t play the same trick again in regards to a budget (as everyone will point to this window) and say we’ve heard it all before. We will know for sure soon anyway , it all promises to be an exciting season for a number of clubs , definitely more competitive top half Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
