andycap Posted yesterday at 20:54 Share Posted yesterday at 20:54 It's got missed opportunity written all over this bakayoko fella. Mbuemo huijsen of late that we didn't buy when the fees were small. Watch him go to Brentford and have a great season and be too much to buy in the future. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crimson Cardigan Posted yesterday at 21:16 Share Posted yesterday at 21:16 (edited) 30 minutes ago, Keegans Export said: He's not really a punt though. Assuming the reports are correct, we've scouted him extensively and have been interested for quite a while. Would we rather have him and £33m to spend elsewhere (eg on a midfielder) or Elanga at £50m? I don’t know. Elanga had the third most assists in the league in a super defensive side and can get better. Bakayoko might never get near that. If Eddie and Co are unconvinced they’ve earned our faith I think.

Toonjam88 Posted yesterday at 21:23 Share Posted yesterday at 21:23 I mean if he is going for £17 million after apparently being the next big thing you have to think he either has a bad attitude or is shit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

junkhead Posted 13 hours ago Share Posted 13 hours ago 12 hours ago, KaKa said: This will be so annoying if he goes elsewhere in the Prem and does well. He's a talented player and is still so young. We were supposedly keen for a while but got put off by this past season. But I think it was a bit of a weird one because I don't think PSV were happy with him not signing a new contract, and so messed him about a bit. This fee is crazy low, and if we saw something in him previously, surely we ought to have another look?! Aye, it can be very frustrating missing on seemingly great deals for popular young talents while we're fixated on expensive established PL players. Compiling the manic shortlist, it's evident for me, that pure football ability and potential is simply not enough for Eddie. Not even, coupled with physical qualities and a decent fee. Imo, the main thing that our transfer team is fixated on is personality and character. Although I've spent hours defending Eddie that he's not obsessed with british players, I think there might be a preference for local players after all. Simply because we can collect much more extensive data on their personality, background, entourage etc.. than we can from some dodgy foreign agent. I might be wrong but I think we simply lack the business connections the top clubs have in the european market, so it's harder for us to guarantee that some young millionaire is not a complete twat.. which reminds me of Bakayoko's wiki picture Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
McCormick Posted 13 hours ago Share Posted 13 hours ago I think it’s just because he’s had a very poor season and is a bit of a risk, even at 17m. He’s honestly looked awful for 6 months now. We have the money to push on and buy a real PROVEN quality addition for that right-wing spot, which is what we’re going to do imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really hope we go for it this summer Think what I like about our chances of this is we play a brand of football that upsets the bigger sides who we'd need to take points off to achieve that. Other sides try and just play the same brand of football better vs the top sides whereas our style and identity is uniquely different. There are teams I dread to play because theyre bogey sides, but not one single team now that I don't think we can beat, and not because it's an 'on our day' job, because we're good enough to go toe to toe with anyone now.
