useless Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 Don't know, my guess was Leonardo but maybe a bit unrealistic. Marco Branca who was at Inter, is also available. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted July 3, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted July 3, 2016 I quite like the idea of Morrisson. I believe he's worked with Bond before so Bond probably thinks he can get the best out of him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villan-scott Posted July 3, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted July 3, 2016 I have no issue with Morrison coming in. He clearly has talent, and could cause havoc in the Championsip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dounavilla Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 Gestede should be back up at best. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 (edited) The type of football that it would take to get the best out of Gestede, isn't the type of football that get's you out of the Championship, these days. And he's not good enough for us to be building our team around him. Edited July 3, 2016 by useless 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post TrentVilla Posted July 3, 2016 Moderator Popular Post Share Posted July 3, 2016 Just a thought on Gustede. He scored 5 in 24 for us last season and was widely criticised while Ayew got 7 in 28 and is widely praised, I think that is worth taking a little bit more notice of. Yes Ayew is the better player and scores 'better' goals (they all count the same) but Gustede might just be the better goal scorer. A further point on Gustede, he scored 33 in 66 for Blackburn in 3 seasons over the same period Dwight Gayle scored 15 in 63. Gustede has scored 40 goals in the Championship and Gayle has scored 13. Newcastle just paid £10m for Gayle, does that make sense to anyone? A lot of people seem miffed at Newcastle getting Gayle, I just can't for the life of me understand why. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 I've wanted Gestede to do well, next season, ever since I saw the pictures of him feeding the homeless, he also actually apologised for getting relegated via his instagram. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abdomlahor Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 (edited) Ayew actually played well. He linked the play and provided a spark. He worked hard and tried to take the game to the opposition, despite the mediocrity around him. Gestede was terrible. Just awful. Couldn't hold it up, couldn't run, couldn't pass. He wasn't even aggressive (which was meant to be one of his main attributes). He barely even jumped off the ground to win headers. He's shown he can score goals in the Championship if he gets the service at least, but Ayew has shown that he can create chances and score goals without them being handed to him on a plate.

Tiny sample size, but if he usually performs like that then he'd be a good signing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
