Don’t we also need him for the 4 home trained players? No, in theory we could name a 21 man squad + leave 4 spaces rather than 4 home grown players We won't obviously but there is a way around it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's all well and good scoring against Stav Lemkin and Gil Cohen of the Israeli league, but we know he can do that already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kidlewis Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 Given our fixtures next year and our lack of strikers, not keeping him for games and loaning him would be thick. if we wanted to buy a young striker tearing it up like him in 2023 it would cost us over £20m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can play for us without being named in our squad at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post villan-scott Posted July 5, 2023 VT Supporter Popular Post Share Posted July 5, 2023 Give him the number 9 shirt and back him. He scores goals. Brilliant how he’s developed over the last 18 months. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWARLEY2 Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 Sell him this summer and you get max £15 mill. Keep him and play him enough and you have a cboice next summer. Sell him for £30 mill or keep him to compete for the number 9 slot. Because the kid scores goals ( and now assists as well ) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'd definitely overpay for an average player and sell a good player for peanuts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwi1890 Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 What’s scary about him is that he’s leagues above premier league regulars in that u21 team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where maybe it would be 20 mill rather than 15 actually i actually get angry thinking about him playing against us in the prem . Because i have every belief that he is going to improve year on year on year. And then i get even more angry that he has done it for Boro Preston and Eng U21s and in Cup games for Villa but never had a chance to prove himself in the Prem . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've thought this myself. The most promising prolific striker in the championship. Only three players ended with better minutes per goals than him last season in the championship, and they were all in their prime. Stewart - Sunderland - 26 Akpom - Boro - 27 Manuel - Burnley - 26 Imagine signing the striker that was just behind them in minutes per goal, that also got more assists than them all , and was 21.

supermon Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 What a finish, him and Ollie as our strikers if pretty damn good. Just get some good attacking forwards either side of the 9 and we are cooking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
