He's basically a slightly worse version of Anthony Gordon. Getting the popcorn out for the rage posting if that's what we are aiming for Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LFEE Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 (edited) 1 hour ago, SteV said: It would be a pretty hard sell to fans like. Not quite as hard a sell as @LFEE’s belief that we should have replaced Isak and Wilson with DCL and Vardy mind, but still one that would cause ructions. You’ll laugh… And I’m going to test @AyeDubbleYoo memory on this one to back me up! Though I think I mentioned it on here also… …but I actually discussed Jaidon Anthony years ago when he played against us for Bournemouth at SJP and I thought he stood out a mile that day. We’d just signed Isak if i recall (and they’d just signed Anthony) so was probably his 1st or 2nd home game (always mix them up with Crystal Palace). Did Bournemouth sign him from Arsenal’s academy? Seem to recall Ian informing me of this. Edited May 12 by LFEE Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was available 2 seasons ago for around 20-25 with only Monaco as competition Im fairly sure. Sam as countless others we’ve missed out. Small pool of players, the most nonsensical comment ive heard. Every team in this league bar the bottom 2 have players who’d improve us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 11 hours ago, Kimbo said: There’s been reports that he’s agreed to go to Villa, which makes sense. Such a Villa transfer. Good technician. Good not great player. Useful rotation option for a side in Europe. Replaces Sancho. Who across all comps has played a lot for them and seemingly just ticked by.

SteV Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 This has obviously been fairly well-known for a while, but have we ever seen it clarified as starkly as £45m for Gomez and £75m for Gordon before? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gbandit Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 £45m for Gomez? when he shouldn’t have been any more than £15m with Gordon going for fair market value. What a fucking shambles Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LFEE Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 2 minutes ago, duo said: We wasted £250mil last Summer so it's going to have repercussions No we didn’t. I’d say we wasted around £80-100m. Thiaw and Ramsey good signings and will be even better next season hopefully. Elanga would fetch £25m easily if wrote off. Wissa £15m. Nick £45m. Where do you get £250m from? Especially as we got £20m for Kelly from nothing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smal Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 £75m for Gordon - at his peak at that time - would’ve been a terrible deal as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicken Dancer Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 PSR workaround or not, the fact somebody thought it was OK to pay £45m for Joe Gomez man, Christ almighty. Add that to the ever growing list that includes Elanga, Wissa, Strand Larsen et al of signings/bids that just blow my mind. Pure cucks for bang average players playing in the Premier League.
