Wanted to get straight back to trying to pull a result out, great character as well, seems a players player! He has a brilliant attitude. One of my favourite things about him actually. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonVillian Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 Love this guy works hard and can finish very good bargain buy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 If we'd have got him in the summer instead of Wes it could be very different. Half the price and twice the player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villalad21 Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 Other clubs would have taken notice of him. Striker like that is a rare breed. I think he's a real gem. Be hard to keep him if we get relegated i recon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think alot of our purchases have in fact been made with one eye on relegation! I.E having a team either too good for, or at the top end of the Championship, to bring us back up and build on. They are all young players on long term contracts and relatively low wages. Edited March 2, 2020 by JAMAICAN-VILLAN 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That being said Fulham managed to keep hold of Mitrovic something i didn't think they would. So there might be some hope. But all the talk about him being so proud of representing Tanzania in Premier League, i don't think he'd want to give that up. Best case scenario we stay up though.

Genie Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 We bought him with the real threat of relegation on the table. I'd hope that scenario is discussed and agreed already. Hopefully he won't be pushing for a move, but can't stop people trying to buy him if he keeps banging them in. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post rodders0223 Posted March 2, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted March 2, 2020 I think we need to calm down. I am really pleased and he looks a player but he has scored a couple of goals, he hasn't tore it up over 6 months. Was available for 10m and nobody punted on him. Talk of a move following relegation is silly at this point. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know actually doing striker stuff, something Wesley not been doing all season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnnyp Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 I actually think if we go down you won't see Wesley play for us again. Some club in Europe will take a punt on him. We won't get what we paid for him. Samatta will be here next season regardless of what league we are in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only player who should be allowed to leave if we go down is Grealish 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't fancy or looking forward to going up against Bielsa again. With his players running like dogs not giving us any time on the ball. I still have scars from that 2nd half at Villa Park. As a Villa fan it was highly unpleasant . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
