He's done well to engineer this level for himself, but I just don't see a drastic improvement. IF we're feeling ambitious, I'd love us to go for the lad at Torino. Expand Bremer? Oddly enough, seemingly not been linked with us this window, despite him being good, a centre back, Brazilian, and built like a brick shithouse. He’s apparently on his way to Inter at the end of the season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Because the media can’t decide whether it’s 8m, 10m, or even if we are even in for him, most of it is made up bullshit until the player signs or doesn’t. Tripper was 25m at one point FFS , they really don’t have a clue on the ins and outs of these bids, the fees, the terms or anything else, they just follow tenuous links and repeat and then say it’s close followed by its dead, then it’s on again, or they get a whiff of a link and claim this is the deal, this is how much and so on.

HaydnNUFC Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 He's had a good season and Brighton fans don't want him to go. Webster is the the better of the two but Burn is an upgrade on Lascelles and Clark, if not a glamorous one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LRD Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 It appears that we wanted to make that huge improvement in Diego Carlos, Botman, Badiashile et al, but found it hard to land our top targets. This is no doubt a short-term solution replacing Clark (done) and Dummett (permacrock, contract expiring). If the opportunity arises towards end of the window or the summer, we will make that leap.

Guest HTT II Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 I don’t mind signings like this, as it pushes the likes of Lascelles and Clark further down the pecking order you’d hope and should we go down, the likes of him and Wood, would boss the Championship. Dare I say it, this would be a very sensible signing. I must add, however, I can’t say I’ve seen him play to be honest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
