Lush Vlad Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 Haaland Watkins Isak Nunez Toney I'm guessing Son counts as more of a hybrid wide forward/attacking mid/striker, type? As I still think he is absolutely brilliant and if he counts, he'd certainly be in my top 5. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nufc123 Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 Think Watkins got to be second after the season he has had. I wouldnt swith Isak for Watkins but hes been the best striker this season really. Haaland Watkins Isak Nunez Hojlund Solanke Toney Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sends out completely the wrong message regarding ambition. Selling Bruno hugely hinders any progression we hope to make and also will send out completely the wrong message to the supporters. The owners have to find another way around FFP or ignore it or go to court. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Froggy Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 I'd have Nunez second personally. Think he's massively underrated and could become scary good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

His ceiling is high just like Hojlund, but hes got to be more clinical and better in front of goal. Dont think he deserves any higher than fourth.

You would take Nunez over Isak if your club had the choice? Unrelated question, but are you bald and do you wear polo necks? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Away Toon Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 Go and drop 500 million in the next transfer window which should be enough to make us top four competitive if spent wisely and if it costs us 10 points so be it. We'd still finish higher up than if we have no money to spend this summer Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe, but we just don’t know as there doesn’t appear to be anything in writing as to what the potential penalties are. They seem to just make them up on a case to case basis.

TRon Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 1 hour ago, healthyaddiction said: Isak is obviously a better footballer, but what Haaland does, is SO elite, he is still comfortably the best striker in the league. Until Isak, or any other striker, bags 25+ league goals in the season, it's really just Haaland and then everyone else. Haaland is more a typical number 9, and a fantastic one at that. At the end of the day you just know he's going to be top goalscorer every season and that's what top clubs pay big money for. That said, if Isak can go the best part of a full season without any injuries he's got the potential to be even more frightening. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
timeEd32 Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 Haaland Isak Watkins Nunez Hojlund Solanke Toney Nunez and Hojlund both have the potential to climb a tier or two. The next tier probably includes Adebayo, Awoniyi, and Richarlison. When you do this exercise you realize that it'd be insane to sell Isak for anything less than a top 3 transfer fee of all time.

TRon Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 It makes me kind of furious when I hear talk of selling Isak for £100m. He's 24. Spurs got the best part of that for a 30 year old Kane with a year left on his contract. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
timeEd32 Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 That fourth tier would also include Alvarez and probably has to include Wilson also, which is why I'm not as keen to rush him out the door as some. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 15 minutes ago, timeEd32 said: Wilson could be fit enough if we could use him responsibly. You could be right, but even if you are, Howe isn't about to dial down the intensity of our training regime or match day work rate for any player. I just don't think it works out for him here, or another top club tbh. He needs a Steve Bruce type club where the manager's only requirement is "let's play!"

The Prophet Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 21 minutes ago, timeEd32 said: Wilson could be fit enough if we could use him responsibly. I'm not sure I agree, his career injury record is poor. He's currently out with a pectoral injury for example. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
