If he keeps up the level hes playing at, there will be no struggle to recover. I’m not sure I agree but obviously very debatable. He works very well for us and I’m not sure how well it translates, but fuck do I know. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Memphis Posted August 26, 2025 Share Posted August 26, 2025 In our position, in need of a PL-ready goal scorer, we aren’t spoiled for choice. Just how it is. We can relitigate the Isak shit, relitigate how shit our summer has been regarding a lack of leadership, all of that is fine and does affect things - but we are here, and we need goals. This guy will provide them. So I’m fine with it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Id also say there are occasions where you could read this board and assume a player who's left is shite but actually it was frustration. I do agree in general though.

Our revenues haven’t expanded enough for it to be irrelevant. We can certainly extract better value and a 175m or so on this guy, Elanga, Thiaw and Ramsey makes me a bit nervous Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And put it it this way, if City wanted Tonali I dont think we would have no trouble getting 55 for him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitley mag Posted August 26, 2025 Share Posted August 26, 2025 If this lad had been playing first half last night we win the game it’s as simple as that. He’ll thrive with Gordon and Elanga either side of him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It isn’t just crosses in the air either, his movement is so good that when Elanga and Gordon do get played in behind that he will find space in the box to put chances away.

Stottie Posted August 26, 2025 Share Posted August 26, 2025 Just some stats from last season but.... Larsen doesn't shoot much, but most of em hit the target and over one in four is a goal. As a concern, shot volume is low, but not low enough to make the above data untrustworthy. His all-round game sounds limited, but we've been there before with Callum Wilson.

Stottie Posted August 26, 2025 Share Posted August 26, 2025 Given the situation we're in, I'm all for the Forest approach, which is buy more than we need and trade away the ones that don't work out to meet PSR. Our PSR problems were just as much from not selling as they were from buying too much. If the worst comes to the worst, sell a chunk of the women's team. A double precedent has been set for doing so to create income. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
