Delphinho123 Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 The links to Wilson + King, letting Samatta + Jota go. I think we’ll bring in another forward player. If we haven’t got one by 11pm tomorrow night, we’ll get one from the championship. Buendia/Sarr/King still available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwivillan Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 I wish they'd asked Smith about Rashica like they did about Roca. I reckon would've been same answer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Rashica links are indeed correct, we'll wait right up to International transfer deadline to see if we can get him. If we can't, we move for King or someone alike. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Grealish gets injured he can fill in and if we lose Barkley, we can push Grealish into the middle and King comes into that left forward role. It just gives us a few options. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might just be we're pressed on FFP at the moment. So we're cutting financial corners where we can. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His heat map last season is all on the left touchline just above half way line not so much corner flag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm saying bullshiter like exAVFCemployee who said last week RLC and Rashica was a done deal. At least PremNews has been ahead of ITKs on Bale and that other Spurs signing etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenjiOgiwara Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 King is much more of a striker than a winger in my book. He tends to drift wide like Watkins arguably does, or Henry for that matter without comparing abilities. He's pretty strong and pacy, but I think his body is pretty knackered at this point. If we signed him, I'm sure he'd be more on the treatment table than on the pitch. Since we let a winger and striker go, I think it's only two ways about it. Either we are signing a replacement, or we are pressed financially due to FFP. And the latter honestly wouldn't surprise me. The questions is whether there are alternatives without a contract that can do a job for us? Lets be honest, when our current options in depth are Davis and AEG, it doesn't need to be a top class player to come in and do better. Can we loan another player from a PL club when we already got Barkley? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least PremNews has been ahead of ITKs on Bale and that other Spurs signing etc FWIW, I think we wanted Barkley and if we failed we would go with RLC. I think the deal with Barkley was done in the week before he was unveiled. There were whispers that he was joining earlier and also that he had had his medical. But he was on the bench for Chelsea’s match on Tuesday then early Wednesday he was unveiled. No way did we close all this out on Wednesday morning, the deal was done, photos taken etc prior to Chelsea’s Tuesday evening match, I think Barkley was sleeping on it and when he didn’t get pitch time he knew the game was up and ratified the deal.
