The College Dropout Posted yesterday at 12:29 Share Posted yesterday at 12:29 5 minutes ago, SteV said: You could put Haaland in this current Everton team with Dyche as manager, and even his numbers would be poor. Bar Southampton, they’re probably the worst offensive team in the league. DCL is the player that has most under performed his Xg over the last 2 seasons. All players with decent minutes. It's him.

KaKa Posted yesterday at 12:36 Share Posted yesterday at 12:36 DCL is going to be looking for a big salary as a free transfer. I don't think we'll give him one as a backup striker, with our financial situation. Won't be at Newcastle I don't think. If he picks his next club wisely, I think he's going to bounce back significantly from next season, and look more like the player he was under Carlo. West Ham would be the way to go if I were advising him. Lots of dangerous players that create chances there. Will not be too dissimilar to Wood looking much better at Forest.

All players with decent minutes. It's him. He's certainly been really poor himself too. I can kind of see why though. It's been a demoralising club to be at lately, and he's often the main threat with all the burden of scoring the goals. They don't really create consistent quality chances either. Going to be quite interesting to see what happens with him when he leaves. I think he bounces back in the right environment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it was mentioned he was looking for 100k, and that will be bumped up a bit as a free transfer I imagine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As what's the point spending money on a 2nd/3rd striker option when the big game changers are other positions that will carry big money? Osula is loaned out, then the striker signing would be another young guy. Isak goes, then you will spend on a striker, and it makes more sense then to have your 2nd/3rd be someone reliable in case they don't settle straight away, which DCL is. Just a lot of good reasons to getting DCL as that squad option. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sibierski Posted yesterday at 15:38 Share Posted yesterday at 15:38 Like he's scoffed at DCL, but I'd wager good money that if we don't sign him on a free, one of the other clubs in last season top 5 will. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted yesterday at 16:03 Share Posted yesterday at 16:03 Some interesting names I've seen us linked with recently that are more in line with the better value deals we will need to start searching out, due to PSR. Loic Bade (RCB) at Sevilla - recognised him as I watched Henry's France Olympic team, and I thought he looked a talent. Yuri Alberto (ST) at Corinthians - never seen this guy play in an actual game, but the scouting reports have him down as a hard working pressing forward. Looks like he's scored well in Brazil of late and so is getting linked with clubs in Europe. Kind of value signing we could look at as a back up striker to replace Wilson if our scouts rate him.

I had a thought that's about to get me dog's abuse, but fuck you guys, i'm saying it anyway. Listening to the radio the other day, it sounds as though Slot doesn't rate Nunez. As a loan with an option to buy, on the right and as an alternative option to Isak, I reckon he would be a decent pickup. Gordon - Isak - Nunez has pace, unpredictability and bags of energy. I don't think it will happen for a number of reasons but it would be a lot more exciting than DCL. Come at me motherfuckers! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can see man u going for him as cover / starter in cups etc, they can probably afford his wages for a non first team starter and he probably wouldn't have to move his family.

Well they're never going to turn a profit on him and we've never seen how Liverpool operate under Slot. If he doesn't want him filling a squad place, who knows. Maybe cough up the £50m or whatever it might take to get him. I'd rather spend that money on him than Guehi Edited yesterday at 16:16 by Holmesy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
