As every player in the championship is worth £20 mill plus ...surely better value can be found in the prem you know the division we now grace once more...clickbaitlazyjerknalists Much rather be linked to the cream of the crop young Championship players than the typical out of favour Prem castoff links. Can't think of any attainable striker I'd sign from the PL over Maupay for example. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Willard Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 Bristol City or Aston Villa. Not really a competition is it really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's always tonnes of touted deals over the summer but they so rarely seem to take place. We did Adomah for Traore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Willard Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 Also am I the only person who doesn't rate Maupay? Just reminds me of a Scott Hogan MKII. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Albrighton Posted June 27, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted June 27, 2019 Think we essentially sold Ayew for Taylor + cash didn’t we? Player + cash deals aren’t that frequent, but it feels like we’ve been involved with our fair share of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coming from someone who actually likes Hogan. Surely you've got to be sh*tting me? I'd say the height is probably where the similarities end. Maupay is better than him in literally every department.

Luton? Stoke on a wet Wednesday night. Come on, Bristol, £12m for a club of your size for any player is a lottery win. Stop with the unnecessary obduracy, it's making you look like you've got small man syndrome. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 It was sky who originally reported that we've bid for Webster, so going by that we might not even be interested in him, but if we are I think we'll get him for around £15m with a few add ons maybe. Even Bristol City fans think that the figures being talked about in the media are ridiculous, if they can make triple on what they paid for him then it would be an excellent deal for them.

jackbauer24 Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 So apart from Ireland for Milner, Ayew for Taylor, Adomah for Traore and Jota for Gardner... What have player swaps ever done for us?! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villarocker Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 I have it on good authority that we will be signing at least 6 players before the start of the season. My source, Gut Feelingmyson - I think he's possibly Scandinavian? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point is it's practically a go-to type of speculative transfer article for lazy journos that, in reality doesn't tend to happen all that often. If we're talking about what they've actually done for us in terms of good/bad deals, I'd have 2 of the above as the stuff of nightmares, 1 I'd say we got the better deal out of and Jota is a TBC for all intents and purposes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
