If you take out his hat trick against Wolves he's only got 4 goals and 3 assists in the league this season. Don't think that's great numbers

Yes but everyone is massively underperforming there currently. It’s almost as if an ill suited manager and toxic environment makes a difference. 

[PauloGeordio]

Would love Mbeumo here.

[Kanj]

If we wanted to take advantage of a relegated team’s plight I’d sign Ndidi as a backup DCM.

Nah - aim higher than him - he was decent once, but that was about 3 years ago 

[Mikky]

There’s probably 3 or 4 worth a look that would benefit us based on their age profile 

 

Dibling - Delap - Abdul Fatawa (possibly Harwood-Bellis)

 

Theres only Delap that provides immediate benefit 

[gbandit]

Think Dibling immediately comes in and offers us something different and better in some respects, worse in others. Murphy is clearly much more well rounded in his strengths now, crossing in the final third is exceptional and actually one of the best on the RW in the league. He’s nowhere near as good as carrying as Dibling. Dibling is much more direct with dribbling. They’re such different players but Dibling is clearly the future. If he did come in, he’d get the Hall treatment with Murphy getting the lion’s share of RW starts 

[Rafalove]

Aren’t Southampton wanting £100,00,000 mil for dibling.

We need a RW that makes an immediate impact - Murphy has been brilliant, but in a European season we need the ability to rotate

His younger brother would be cheaper but his ball carrying stats aren't as good. 

 

Dibbling's sibblin's dribblin's middlening

Not really, just a bit of a soundbite they put out to try and get as much as they can.

[STM]

I'm in the, just get Mbeumo, camp now.

 

He can fix two areas in one swoop (RW and ST) and has a fantastic fitness record.

 

We can perhaps box smart with other positions, i.e signing a young player etc.

 

I just dont feel like we will go for the obvious choice. I also think Brentford will price us out.

Its actually sound logic. Paying ~£60m for someone who is essentially two positions of need and a starter in the biggest position of need. Plus you then keep Cordeiro for depth rather than loan him out.

I thought him on loan as 5th choice and sending Miley to Leicester for a season could be good all around.

[rebelrouser]

I like our chances w/ Mbeumo better now that Salah is coming back, but Liverpool could still make an offer. I think the player will want to leave with a weekly salary around £ 45,000. Contract up '26, but Bees have a one-year option.

Once Angelina Jolie speaks I listen, let's go with her pick.

How many years left on Mbuemo's contract?

1

[ponsaelius]

2 in reality as they have an option to extend.

[Whitley mag]

Can see Mbuemo being the number one target can play across the front 3 and guarantee’s goals, can’t see the funds stretching to a winger and forward even with CL football.

 

If we got Mbuemo, Trafford and Huijsen it would strengthen 3 key positions and would be hard to argue that it wasn’t a good summer.

 

I can see Longstaff and Wilson leaving to free up wages and possibly Pope, if Trafford arrives.

 

Would like another dynamic attacking midfielder in an ideal world, especially if we secure CL football, as the system we play requires more than Willock and Miley in reserve with the potential extra games.

[Drewboy74]

Would playing Mbuemo up front not just be the same as playing Gordon up front?

No, as Gordon is hopeless up front.

Think Mbuemo looks a far more accomplished finisher than Gordon and seems to find himself in central areas like his first goal on Saturday regularly.

[kingxlnc]

Bloody use the loan market if needed too 

 

villa smashed it by doing so in jan 

[Optimistic Nut]

I'm guessing if we'd been in Europe by the January of our CL campaign, we'd have made some sort of additions even on loan like Villa did. 

[r0cafella]

To those who think we should be getting Cunha and Mbuemo (both very good players) can you please keep future complaints about FFP, not having squad big enough and having to sell players to yourself please. Thanks.
