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

Think he means outlay now, as in the weird FFP world (i.e, spend is split over 4/5 years).

 

I'm guessing that's the case anyway, otherwise that's some wild maths.

Looking at his injury history, the major ones were a knee injury and a broken toe, suggesting unlucky rather than muscular (he's missed 26 days according to transfer mkt) which is more usually an  "injury Prone" issue.

Is this transfer moving us forward as a squad?

 

exactly.

I'm not sure which side of the argument you are taking.  I think the answer is yes - moving on near 33 year old Wilson and bringing in 27 year old DCL is a move forward, especially as he offers us a very different striker option to Isak when needed.

 

I'm sure some would.take the opposite position.

Everton wants around £37m for Dominic-Calvert Lewin. What a robbery.

 

Just a starting point I'd imagine. They know no one is paying that for him. I even remember seeing an article a couple of months ago stating how he'd be available this summer for a "cut price of £25M".

 

Bearing in mind he was being looked at by Arsenal and Man Utd 2 years ago and they were told £75M.

This is a more exciting rumour 

 

 

Whoever said put an I on the end of kilman is spot on here mind cos lots will want him instead despite not a great difference in quality. Another left sided CB isn't he? Not that I don't rate him like would be a good signing.

He’s right footed, plays mainly RCB I think. A lot younger so I would prefer him over Kilman (who I do rate). Just think this one would make more sense for what we need.

He has played both sides. He isn't predominantly one or the other BUT he is right footed so you'd assumed hed be a Schar replacement. Has played very occasionally as LB and RB.

 

Botman - Tomori as a partnership would be as good as anyone could hope for without being in Europe.

Tomori?

Played on the left every time I saw him although thinking back was next to that bairn so understandable really. Certainly wouldn't be upset either way like. Good strong CB and Brexit Eddie will be happy

Aye it was me. Although admittedly I'd prefer Tomori, I reckon he's got a few more air miles on him for his age.

 

Also, if we signed tomori, the anti-anglo brigade wouldn't make a peep.... all because we would be signing him from Milan.

 

Both Kilman and Tomori are good defenders and it's no surprise that we are looking at them.

Ah definitely, both would be good signings. Like you say tomori probably suits better, especially at around 40 if possible

Aye, fair point. Been a bit optimistic with those costings but whichever way you look at either as real term costs offset by players going the other way or in terms of FFP, it's still fantastic business imo.

Looks like West Ham are going back with another bid for Kilman. 

 

As someone said in his thread, it felt like Wolves released the news about our bid to John Percy so West Ham upped their bid

Nope. Owners have actually surprised me how smart they’ve been in the transfer window.

Read that as referring to the obstacles put in place by the Premier League in an effort to thwart our inevitable meteoric rise.
