It’s bit about anyone in particular, guv. 

I was just taking the rise. I've no idea what a meta-post is

[Kimbo]

He sounds like he fits the bill as much as the other young forwards we've been linked to. The bid was rejected though, and I get the impression we move on rather than go back with higher bids.

Joao Pedro would be an excellent signing for us. Can't see why anyone would complain about signing a player like him. Far more proven than Ekitike that many were excited for at £35m+ and roughly same age. His versatility suits as well as he can play across the front 3 and would be a very good backup if Wilson broke down. 

Always liked you Flip.

Just finding it very amusing people shouting about signings then instantly disliking any link.

But that’s bollocks. Majority of people like the likes of Ramos, Gallagher & Pulisic. You’ve picked one player to make this ridiculous point about  it’s called opinions.

Don’t think Watford need or want to sell, so would take a huge bid, can’t see us going back in.

Do Watford have a say in this? 

Yes they said he isn't for sale.

If not Wood, I'm sure Murphy or even just Anderson on a season's loan deal would look decent to them.

Not sure, could easily end up getting him for £25m or so. 

[McCormick]

Unlike us to bid for a player a team doesn’t want to sell.
 

Mentioned this earlier but he’s actually pretty decent.  Don’t see them selling though unless it’s a silly bid.

I’ll be willing to give this kid a go but it absolutely can’t be the only player we bring in surely 

[Kanj]

I signed him on Fifa the other week

Luckily we have plenty of championship level players to offer them.

This is a shit attitude to have tbh. Condescending as fuck.

Personally I find overly negative hyperbole more offensive.

Instantly disliking any link? I’ve seen tons of people that have been happy about quite many links so far. Each to their own, but I find it odd and not right the way some people go on about others posts and opinions. This is aimed at people from both sides of the coin. As in people who are frustrated and people who are chill about it. I’m in between and won’t say too much before the window actually closes. Just wish people would go on differently about it. Whether people agree or not.

I am getting fed up of us going for players that clubs are unwilling to sell like. This appears to have happened literally just after they flogged Dennis.

But if we value him at 17 or 20, will we pay an extra 5? I would guess not.

[Hanshithispantz]

Honestly thought it was universally agreed he was a really promising player 

 

Come on here amd apparently he's pureblood Ameobi.

 

I really like the look of this kind of signing with a couple more in.

[Geogaddi]

Never seen the Cunt play but know he will be 100x better than Chris Wood.

It suggests we are juggling between a few options.

 

I reckon it wasn't a "bid" but more us sounding out another potential players price.

Does this theory only apply to the people that don’t like him?  how many times have the people raving about him watched him play? Probably much the same. 
 

 

The difference is that the people that like the possible signing are basing it off his potential from the scouting reports on him, and the opinion of the Watford fans. They're hardly saying he is going to guarantee goals and be amazing. It's a fair assessment that gives him a chance to come in and show us what he can do.

 

However writing him off and calling him Chris Wood or whatever other nonsense that has been posted is based on what exactly? That is ridiculous, but sadly typical of a few on here. It's embarrassing really.

I mean, I don’t know, but we have to buy someone eventually, and it’s easier to overpay for a cheap player than an expensive one.

Every player is for sale, it’s us not matching the asking price that means deals don’t get done.

[The Prophet]

Strange that we seemingly went up to €35 million with Ekitike and are rumoured to be consider a similar bid for Ramos, but we open £10 million light here. Given it was allegedly last week, I wonder if it was a test the waters bid before we made our move.

Doesnt look like this is a goer.
