Gerrard likes them more attacking than Targett is, but even so, strange. We're bigger. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wouldn’t be able to cut it in the Premier League in my opinion. Even David would probably need a year or so over here to start having a decent impact, and I think he’ll become good in time.

I’m sure Sarr balled out against Liverpool and a few other teams though. For context: Watford absolutely murdered us in every area of the pitch that day.

We had Grealish out for about six months with 'a bruised kidney'. That wasn't even a fucking injury before that. I'm surprised Coutinho hasn't done his ACL yet.

toontownman Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 If we manage to add a class attacked like Lingard or Zapata then I will say it's been pretty great. We are an injury to Wood away from being in the shit up front again though likewise ASM. A forward that can play wide is a must really. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

xLiaaamx Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 I'd personally rather have gone for a pacey striker. It felt like we went for clichés about PL Know How rather than buying a player who fits our team. In the past Howe has had Wilson, Solanke, Mousset, King, Defoe, Afobe off the top of my head, and none of those were based on being big and winning aerial duels. He's never looked to use a Wood type before and it feels like an awful fit. We need pace and movement, not "a focal point" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got no problem with Bruno or Trippier (who would), but I think Wood is a shocking signing and I'm not too keen on Burn either based on the times I have seen him. I am far from convinced that we will stay up, if the current players we have remains as it is. 4 minutes ago, woody said: Out of curiosity, what more would you like to have seen?

Emotic Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 The Mirror (lol) seems to think we’ve gone in for a last-ditch attempt to get Botman. I don’t see it happening given that a) It’s the Mirror, b) it’s too late in the window for replacements, c) they’re playing Chelsea next. But sure, blow them out of the water with a huge bid for shits n giggles. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
