Pretty weak way of discrediting Longstaff tbh, he doesn’t deserve a Pardew comparison.. no one does Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Wilson to West Ham is soooo West Ham. I can deal with anyone leaving.... if we sign someone worth signing. I'd be gutted to lose someone and not get at least one quality player through the door. Not that I can see that happening. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BShearer Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Saudi clubs need to look at Ritchie, Kraft, Targett, Dummett etc. 10m each and we can talk. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course unexpected events can crop up, but we can trust that our only objective is to make the club as good as possible. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially after they got Phillips as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

timeEd32 Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Would much prefer to sell Miggy than Wilson, particularly with the fee likely to be higher also. Wilson will improve any of the PL teams that have been mentioned. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

More likely how the season has panned out being the main driver than PSR. These players were always going to go this summer, just brought forward. Feels a little like they're clearing the decks for the next stage in the team's development. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 (edited) £20m-ish is fine for Wilson but I don't get the reasoning for purposely having even fewer strikers. And to a PL rival as well. Edited January 25 by Ketsbaia Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We might have expected to be in Europe this calendar year. So that’s a few million missing. We most definitely targeted finishing in Europe this season. Not doing so will cost several millions. We also thought we had a squad that could last the season. With Joelinton and Tonali out for the season and Willock injured pretty much all season. We are in desperate need for reinforcement. So now there’s a need to generate PSR headroom. If not for PSR, we would only strengthen. PSR is the reason we have to ‘trade’ valuable assets.

We don't have any kind of track record like Everton, of wasting tons of money on average players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 There seems nothing professional at all with how this January has gone down. We’re offering up our senior leaders openly in the press, it stinks of panic. I don’t see any grand plan here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we were offering them up then I'm sure we'd have sold a 33 year old Trippier to Bayern for £13m. If we sell Miggy for £30m I'm sure no one is going to complain TOO much. Wislon ditto, he's a crock, although that's actually the most risky one since it would leave us with one striker. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disagree, if we got good money for all 3 it would have been excellent business all things considered. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
