We are surely trying to build a squad though, not have a one in one out policy, especially considering how light we are in attacking areas Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt we'd be so desperate for a squad striker if it wasn't for Wilsons injury record. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HaydnNUFC Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 Their new winger went off injured today so it'll probably be over £35m. Which to me is over market value. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who do you like that isn't already at a big club, or that everyone else isn't already raving about? Anyone unheralded that you seen anything in? Was just a playful jibe mate My interest in football is pretty surface-level these days - if it's not NUFC or Fantasy Football related then I'm not the obsessive I once was. Ashley wore me down. Fwiw I also liked the look of McNeill a year or two back but there is no excuse for his recent stats. We already have enough 'attackers' who chip in with almost zero goals / assists.

Feels like this one is actually progressing past an initial inquiry/first bid. Will likely take a lot of haggling, but I can see a deal being done at around £30m. Whether that's the final figure, or an initial one with performance related bonuses that gets it closer to Leeds (supposed) desired £35m who knows.

STM Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 Looks as though they are going all in on Harrison for now. Be interesting to see what our next bid is. What was our last bid 17-22m? And they want 35? I think we have almost certainly unsettled the player at this point. We just need Leeds to come to the table. If we settle somewhere between 25 and 30m, I think it will be a fair compromise. These days figures are still batshit mind and I struggle to get my head around what is and isn't a big fee. We paid 25m for Chris Wood, so it would reasonable to assume we would pay the same for a first choice winger. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We already have enough 'attackers' who chip in with almost zero goals / assists. Fair play Mike Ashley finished a lot of people off man, so I get it. Yeah, he had a tough year last season, but I think he just needs a change of scenery. Just needs to make sure he picks a club that uses the ball better.
