rayk Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 What I’m living about the rumours this window is just when you think all the targets have been identified it’s like .......BANG....here’s another target that’s EVEN better. I was very happy with one of Brewster or Sarr..... but now the only player I want as wide player / ST is Donyell Malen! Perfect player fit wise, and like Traore, spent the early part of his career in the UK so no questions about him settling! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Delphinho123 Posted October 2, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 2, 2020 It is imperative we bring in another forward player. Our options across the front 3 are currently... Watkins Grealish Davis Traore Trezeguet El Ghazi Jota We need another quality option in there I'm afraid. We cannot be in a position where Trezeguet and El Ghazi see extended game time this season. I know Trez runs around a lot, but he is seriously short of quality. Hopefully we can shift El Ghazi and Jota. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do they keep getting away with it? Absolutely reeks of being another Solanke I think Solanke was ruined by Liverpool. They did this by having a talented young player lounging around their first squad when he should've been out on loan, or at a championship team getting vital minutes on the pitch. Then the foolish boy goes to Bournemouth to be second fiddle to Callum Wilson costing 20 odd mill. He is now having to catch up on 4 years of being on the bench. Fortunately for Brewster he got a loan last season did well and is now going the Sheffield United to get first team Premier league football. Both players were top players at youth level with immense talent. Guided well and Brewster can be a very good Premier league player. Bright young players like Brewster, Solanke and our Jacob Ramsey need managers that guide them well and give them game time. They learn nothing being on the bench and being forgotten about, just to watch as their motivation and hunger get slowly drained by having money and status just for being in the Liverpool squad. Liverpool ruined Solanke and will ruin Brewster if he stays, and are in danger of ruining Harvey Elliot (who to me looks like a left footed Jack Grealish) if they don't get him regular competitive minutes.

That's a bit extreme whilst I agree that reeling another one in would make this window perfect we've had a strong window. Unfortunately we can't do it all in one window. Hopefully the lure of champions League football entices El Ghazi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What happens when Konsa or Mings are injured/suspended? Hause isn't good enough and Engels isn't being considered. Ideally we need a CB, LB and another forward. If we get one of those I think we will have done well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philosopher Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 (edited) It's funny how some on here found my realistic assessment of our transfer window harsh or negative just before we signed Barkley. Now we have one bad result against Stoke and we need 3 or 4 more players. Before Barkley it was a 5 and half out of ten max. Now it a 7 to 7 and half out of ten. Another attacker it becomes an 8.5 / 9 depending on the quality of the signing. Add a left back and it's a 10. Add another centre back and I won't be able to compute and the impossible will have been done. What I'm saying is we have had a very solid window and are in a good place, but there is definitely room for improvement. No need to get down over a bad result. Not point in spunking over what could be. Edited October 2, 2020 by Philosopher 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Solanke was just vastly overrated simply because he was in the Liverpool squad. Anyway it was Eddie Howe who was fooled and that really didn’t surprise me at all as he was vastly overrated as a manager. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely reeks of being another Solanke How's about this: The £23.5m deal includes a buy-back option for three years and the Reds will get 15% of any sell-on fee. So, if they decide to invoke the buy-back clause, does that mean they are essentially only paying 85% of the fee? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
