Without any Mane or Salah I’m not sure how effective a false 9 would be for us. Hopefully they see something they can mold, but we need players that can score from the get go cause our final third looks pretty bad if Wilson is not playing or having a bad game Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
timeEd32 Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 This thread is going to be fun to re-read when he’s a superstar in two years. (I know nothing and wild have preferred Ramos — just willing it into existence) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 44 minutes ago, HTT II said: My mate is a Watford fan who gave me some info on Sarr who I rate and would like here and he says we will be buying a future gem of a player in Pedro and that forget his poor scoring return, it’s his potential. Says he just never stops grafting! He seems gutted they could be losing him along with Sarr and obviously recently Dennis. I watched a second video just before and yeah he definitely has something. Really fantastic feet, and you can see how he's very similar to Ekiteke. I am quite excited about this now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven’t seen anything of him to be honest other than the YouTube clips I posted, I’m confident if this fella is highly rated by our manager and staff then I’m happy for us to sign him.

Yorkie Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 I'd love us to get this one over the line, like. It's critical that we have someone other than Wood to rely on and I love the sound of another Brazilian in the squad. You need to be wary of creating cliques a la the Pardew days and all the French players, of course, but Bruno and Joe just seem like such good characters that are so well integrated into the rest of the squad; signing another of their countrymen will only likely be a good thing. Plus, just having a young striker with lots of potential who's clearly got his head screwed on is just exciting when you think about Howe's ability to mould players. Won't really care less at the fee, tbh. I trust the decision makers and all that matters is that he does well here. If he does, then it's money well spent; if he doesn't, it's a shame, but it's not like we haven't searched far and wide to find someone. The prices just are what they are; were not shopping in the bargain bin any more. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BGRM Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 Just been going through the Hornet's nest forum and Watford fans like JP a lot and want to hang onto him. A lot of them reckon he's worth 40+ million like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking similar earlier. As a young developing player, having had a carousel of different managers with different styles in different teams already, must be night and day compared to having someone settled and methodical to coach you, in a team playing with clear instructions. And also a squad with a feel-good factor, compared being in a side heading for relegation last season and likely still reeling from it now. Hopefully we get him, and then it'll be exciting to see if he works out or not. Even if not, then he'll have been given the best possible chance at least, you'd think.

Hopefully they see something they can mold, but we need players that can score from the get go cause our final third looks pretty bad if Wilson is not playing or having a bad game I assume they just mean a skilful central attacker. From what i remember of JP - he was a problem in the air for defenders and was physical. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
