LRD Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 3 hours ago, Optimistic Nut said: Who do we reckon the two players we’ll end up having to unregister before Saturday will be? Woodman or Gillespie will be one… Do not need to deregister anyone until end of the window-ish when we have to finalise our squad. 20m. Wilson was injured two weeks ago and we desperately need a striker to come in for the Watford game. Either our scouts must be useless for us not to find viable alternatives at this price point and Howe is adamant about this signing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

matta Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 Improvement on Carroll from last year. desperately needed to catch some early form, and is an okey backup to Wilson. Hoping this one pays off, but not to confident here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackandWhite Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 There’s no doubt we’re overpaying for him, but we’re in a desperate situation and we’re fast running out of options. It’s inevitable we were going to be ripped off somehow in this window. Hopefully, he does bang in a few big goals for us and make the fee as worth it as it can be.

WillingtonMag Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 If he gets a chance in the box I'm confident he will score which I couldn't say for any other player at the club other than Wilson. That alone makes it a good signing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stottie Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 Just on Burnley, Cornet hardly scored in France, but has 6 goals from 1.5 xG of shots this season. That's better than even Willock last season (8 from 4.85). It sounds like Papiss Cisse during his first 10 games. It won't continue. If we have been struggling to get a striker in with bigger wages, a bigger budget, and a search which started last month, I'd expect Burnley to struggle to get one in for the money we're giving them here with their wages, their proximity to London, their playstyle (for young players), their "project". Wood will be an upgrade on Gayle and that's all that matters for the time being. We need another striker and a better one would be good, but have three weeks to find one.

buzza Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 Decent signing, needed for next few crucial games... We are always going to have to pay a premium just because of our owners. 20 mil seems about right tbf.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I don’t think he’ll prove to be worth that much. I hope you’re right and I am eating my words with a spoon come May (or even next season if he does well in the league below). I don’t think any other team in the league would have happily bid that for him unless they were in a desperate need like we are. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's got a decent record in a basic team, knows the league and the mix up top might be better for it. He's also a Shearer fan according to the Premier League video on YouTube. His fav striker! Big of muscle up top might allow Wilock to walk up and Max to get higher up the pitch. ...the moneys daft but means must. He's sort of like a poor man's Shearer in some ways. Much clumsier obviously, but he does have a bit of strength about him both physically and mentally, great in the air, and whacks in a mean penalty.

Yorkie Posted January 11, 2022 Share Posted January 11, 2022 Assuming Wood isn't total shit - and we're not totally in the shit by that point - it's a potentially pretty tasty duo with him and Wilson. So much strength at the top end of the pitch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
