I'm hoping we sign the kid. He looks to be very talented. When he joins and starts getting some game time then the fun will begin. Liking the fact that he might be versatile enough to play across the front-three but also in midfield as suggested, despite Watford fans not seeing him as a #9. Hoping we sign him, but will be disappointed if he's our only remaining signing tbf Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gdm Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 Fuck sake. I get on board and it’s rejected Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 Personally don't think this gets accepted. Normally you don't even hear about the bid, its just "he's on his way for a medical after a bid was accepted". Let's hope it does get done as it allows us plenty of scope for the last 2 weeks of the window. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d rather we built on the Bruno and Botman ambitions, cause that’s what we’ll need if we are gonna challenge for something (Europe, Cup win etc). I’m all for getting talents but not at the expense of ready-made first team players. There's great value in picking up players from relegated clubs. We already got one this season in Pope and I don't think anyone can look back at the last two matches and say they are sceptical of him? How will talents ever get the chance if we keep signing ready-made first team players? Besides, we aren't in a position to get a full team of Bruno's. We need to take a chance on potential and hope they develop/mature with us as we progress. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Icarus Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 This tactic we're employing might be setting down a marker that we won't be mugged off, but it also seems a bit unrealistic where attacking players are concerned and it's not reaping any rewards at the moment Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 We can't be far off. If we are that keen on him, we will bridge the gap. There's a strategy at play here. I don't know what that strategy is, if I'm honest, but there is clearly a plan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoping we sign him, but will be disappointed if he's our only remaining signing tbf I can't see why he'd be our only remaining signing. Minimum we'll get at least one other alongside him IMO. I'm not worried about his finishing to be honest. Those Watford teams by all accounts haven't been sides that use the ball well, and so he's likely having to drop more to link play and create chances, without then getting chances created as much for him once he gets further forward himself. When used up front, in actuality I'm more excited about his ability to get on the ball, not lose it, and initiate some build up play, because for me these are the absolute worst aspects of Chris Wood. In this 4-3-3 we need someone that can do that when Wilson doesn't play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
