Would bite your hand off for Reiss Nelson would be an instant upgrade, and still young

Upgrade? He plays on the LW every time I’ve seen him…

He's a right winger. Comfortable either side but played many more minutes on the RW in his career.

 

Wouldn't be too excited by the signing though.

Not in a good place at the moment.

All this stressing about RW when we had one under our noses. Hmph. 

Reiss Nelson would be like when linked with Elanga. Underwhelming. 

Honestly, if Chiesa is 12.8m which is what I read recently just get him and be done with it.

Can't let perfect become the enemy of the good, your Raphinha's and those on similar wages are a lot for the club to stomach, and quite literally any RW we buy somewhere north of 10m would feel an upgrade based on what we have

4 goals and 7 assists in 35 appearances/1,557 minutes.

More assists than Minteh then. Result.

 

Not as many goals as Minteh though. Beeew.

We tried to sign him on a free transfer last summer I believe when he was out of contract at Arsenal.

Was that not nketiah?

He’s also currently on £150k p/w, and would presumably be looking for a bit of a raise to come here, so getting someone in to (almost) be our highest paid player, who’s yet to conclusively prove he can reach the levels he did pre-serious injury, would be a tad risky to say the least.

No point buying a marginally better player than miggy then have to upgrade on him again. That RW position is becoming so frustrating it’s absolutely screaming out for a player of the level of Isak & Gordon. Not Reiss fuckin Nelson

The point would be improving our squad, no?

Where did the Brajan Gruda talk come from? I was away that weekend and remember (barely) reading something about him in this thread?

But you can pay for that 150k p/w from the 10-12m you would save on the transfer fee of such a player? Normally they would have expected to have paid 25m let's say, even 20m. 
So the budget is still there so to speak.

Not by much at all. If at all. I know PSR etc dictated we had to sell Minteh but both him & Murphy have better ‘numbers’ that Nelson. That’s just getting a body in for the sake of it. He wouldn’t improve us massively.
