Like Anderson. Like others would take him over Longstaff. He's definitely competent which sometimes carries local lads more than it would anyone else and if were passed him as ever being a starter, especially in the BS FFP era, probably makes sense.

Not bothered one way or the other on this one. Would be happy to keep Anderson and not bother with Killman and trust the club if otherwise.

The Eddie Howe's Brexit army narrative one is mainly just a convenient stick for the people who wish we would exclusively sign European wonder kids they've never actually seen play. 

Clearly Brexit Eddie prefers players with PL experience. Quite a lot of the time, they’re from the UK. It doesn’t matter either way as long as he keeps improving the team.

Maybe we have seen that the "squad" is a bigger issue then the starting 11.

 

I know the answer we want is to bring in a stronger 11 and the purples to happily  drop down to be  squad players.  But in reality that does not happen without a few bumps in the road.

 

Anyway let's not worry about ifs and maybes until these rumours actually land

He scored less goals last season from open play than Sean Longstaff, how is that for a fact.

How does that relate to whether he is a ‘crock’?

Reading through all that was pretty funny. 

 

My take on it is this:

 

DCL - is better than a lot of people on here seem to think, he's 100% I'm the mix with Watkins and Toney when in a good team and fully fit, he's also an absolute monster in the air. 

 

Swap deals - make it sound like not much cash is passed between clubs, which is not the case at all. They're pretty always done as separate deal. Just reported at player + cash if there's an imbalance in cost.

 

Minteh -  still very raw, the club would have had someone watching him closely all season. So, If they have decided he's not the 1, then so be it.

Just got to hope that the deals we’re looking at now are squad fillers at reasonable prices to allow a marque player or two to come in after the ffp deadline is done. 

 

I think we've shown our intent with the effort to go for Olise.

People losing their minds over us trying to pull the same stunt as Chelsea, Villa, and Everton? Except it's not due to some morale outrage, but the deemed quality of said deals. It's indicative of the saleable assets we have. We don't have an academy pumping out prospects to trade like pokemon, so anyone with value is on the block. This is modern football, thanks to FFP. If we shift Minteh or Anderson, it frees up a wedge to reinvest, on top of whoever comes the other way.

To be honest quite like the transfer. 

 

Obviously his injury record is horrific. So it's a bit of a gamble. Back when he was being managed by Ancelotti he was one of the best forwards in the PL.

His last 7yrs he's played 32,35,36,33,17,17,33 league games. Hardly horrific.

I assume that’s not starts in the league? I wonder how many minutes he has played in the league per season/game in the last 3-4 years or so. Sometimes numbers look more flattering than they actually are. Even going by these numbers he missed half a season two years in a row.

The outlay for the below 4 is potentially less than 20m and significantly improves our squad. I'm not sure how you can look at that list and the prices involved and say it's nothing but incredible business.

 

Trafford

Kilman 

Kelly 

DCL

How have you come to a figure of below £20 million?

In the last three seasons:

 

- Calvert-Lewin has made 67 league appearances out of a possible 114.

 

- Wilson has made 69 league appearances out of a possible 114.

 

And a chunk of those Wilson absences are a product of him playing second fiddle to Isak, whereas basically all of Calvert-Lewins’ are through injury.  

 

 

I said this yesterday, thanks for fact checking it, 

 

 

You'd just stick with Wilson, he's likely to play as many games or more, score more, and knows the coach, system, and teammates etc inside out. 

 

I'd add to the above, with DCL you have no resale value at the end, it's more of the same, saddled with average players like we are currently at the fag end of their careers, and nobody to buy them.

 

Bringing back Adam Armstrong makes more sense, in exchange for Ryan Fraser.

And scored how many?

 

You do realise we aren't signing the Everton playing squad and coaching staff along with him right?

 

Once again I remember all the quotes stating how few goals both Isak and Gordon had scored the season before joining us.

 

You sign a player for their attributes and what they will add to your team and style of play, and how they will perform in your setup.
