Ramsdale to Sheff Utd? £20m (-£1.5m) Castagne to Leicester? £20m (+£1.5m) Rodriguez to Everton? £20m (+£2m) It's just the done thing during Covid-19 times.

RicRic Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 We are looking increasingly desperate.. they want £20M for Josh King i am praying we do not pay that amount .. we may aswell get Divock Origi if we are going to pay £20M and just bloody get Benrahma if hes price tag is £25M what are we waiting for .. we seem to be running out of options now we need to just go get these guys as we are running out of time and please do not pay that amount for Harry Wilson either hes not worth it. Its pretty clear we are now going through our list of 3rd choice signings which scares the life out of me and now every link is frightening me by the day. I said before DS is not the right guy to attract a certain calibre of players and our current position doesn't help .. i like DS before you jump on my back but this is football and thats partially the truth.

Looks like he be out a while so maybe we should put that bid in for king? Not sure about King - but thats why we are after 2 strikers IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiwivillan Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 2 minutes ago, tomav84 said: stats aren't everything as others have said. with respect, i prefer to rely on the opinions of those that watch him week in week out, and all my AFCB mates plus my office that's full of AFCB fans don't have a bad word to say about him. they rate him twice as high as they do wilson. i can't claim to have seen loads of him myself, but have liked what i've seen whenever i saw him. when buying a player the reactions of supporters of the selling club is a big tell as to what the player is like. NFFC fans were gutted to see Cash go for example. AFCB fans are pissing themselves at the money they got for wilson. Goal and assist stats per game as wide player he's not an upgrade on what we've got. It's depressing to me that people think this is a good signing.

I can’t see Smith deviating from his favoured 4-3-3, I can also see Grealish pushing to be used back in centre-mid, to help his England chances - and let’s face it, we’ll give Grealish what he wants if it means there’s more chance of him staying. I feel that Watkins and Benrahma will definitely move, it’s just a matter of when and where, as Brentford might just be hanging on for the best possible offers they can get. Replace Watkins with Odsonne Édouard and then we are talking, also wouldn't mind a decent McGinn cover, someone with an engine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OLDVILLAIN Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 so apparently we cant afford to pay "premier league" wages.. I have heard it all now..the amount of bullshittery from the gutter press and social media is staggering Lets just see what happens...strange window goes along with strange times The last day or two of the window might see things Moving at a pace One thing i can see is that we are only one or two injuries away from a disaster of a season if we don't strengthen before window closes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That covers a multitude of things though 1.We can't afford to because of FFP 2.The owners who underwrite us for millions each month - aren't keen to add to the debt 3.DS doesn't think certain players are worth £70k PW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skarroki Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 Pervis Estupinan at Watford could be a really good option to give as much competition at LB as there now is a RB and would mean Taylor has less chance of making it onto the pitch. Assumed he'd get a big move but the transfer talk on him has all gone quiet 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So true, defence worries me after the first team, also someone like Benrahma would have been good to take off pressure from Grealish having to create all the time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
