We could have still improved it in other areas.

Get the washer on, it's rinse time.

Marvellous!

Liverpool fan at work just told me they overpaid for him. EXCUSE ME BUT YOU BETTER WATCH YOUR TOAST AROUND LUNCH TIME.

Honestly just stupid on every level if we pay £60m + for Wissa.

Eight hours behind the UK so by the time I wake up in the morning we’ll already be pretty close to the deadline.

 

We better have a striker by then  

I feel that! The wake up phone check and all to inevitable lack of a new player thread we have bid for!

Brentford’s negotiating team

We have overpaid if we spend over 40m. I think they would likely take 50m but time will tell. 

 

Hopefully we have other options because Brentford are clearly perfectly happy to keep him if they dont get the money they want.

[Lush Vlad]

Fuck Wissa. He’s done very similar to what Isak has done, massively overpriced and will be away at the AFCON. We’d get what? A few good seasons out of him?

Piss in his coffee.

I would rather go for Watkins if Wissa is anything above 45m.

The only way to compound this disgusting situation and make it worse would be to bring in Wissa for an extra £25m than he’s worth after we’ve sold Isak for under £25m his worth. What a fucking joke 

[tarie4]

I think Wissa gets done at about 40/50.

Good forward who will score goals. Giving big Nick time to settle. Brentford won't keep him, just like we couldn't keep Isak. Player power always wins.

[Rich]

Signing Wissa after how he’s cracked on makes us look even dafter than we do already.

[Elliottman]

I’ve got absolute faith we’ll make the right decision on whoever we bring in. There’s no evidence to think otherwise. 

[oldtype]

I just can’t possibly imagine that we’d buy Wissa for any price that I’d be remotely happy with.

[B-more Mag]

 We’ve basically stopped at a poorly lighted ATM and started counting our cash out loud.

In Baltimore

[Vaj]

I think we will get Wissa for a massive overpay. I would take a chance on Kolo Muani personally 

[black_n_white]

Well this is panning out just as I expected, one rat out one rat in. Grim.

Can see this. Some sort of horrible fee like £55m

[NUFC91]

If we have let Isak go for £125m (under his value) and pay more than the £35m initially offered for Wissa that's absolutely terrible business...

[Moose]

Wissa - No thanks, ridiculously over priced, written off during the AFCON, behaved like a diet Isak and is so old that he'll be eligible for a bus pass by the time we sign him.

 

JSL - Will cost waaaaaay beyond what he's worth. 

 

Jackson - Could work very well in Eddie's system and is the only PL proven striker we've been linked with who is activley being shopped by his club. The figures being quoted for him are still way too high and it sounds like our interest in him has cooled. Another one we can write off for the AFCON too.

 

Kolo Muani - I'd be happy with him if we brought him in a few weeks ago, I'm not sure if Eddie will be happy to roll with 2 strikers unproven in the PL though.

 

Watkins - In a pre-PSR world, he'd be a perfect Wilson replacement, but now we need to box clever, too many downsides.

 

So in summary: Fuck knows. I'd take a chance on Kolo Muani of all the players linked so far followed by Jackson. I hope we pull another rabbit out of the hat a la Woltemade.

He's lucky he hadn’t said that to old "Liney" me, something of his would’ve already been shat in or full of piss
