Kodjia was as slower than my gran, wouldn't pass the ball even if you threatened his family with death and was actually a pretty poor finisher truth be told. But yeah, they're identical mate Nobody has said they are identical. I said he looks and reminds me of Kodjia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted August 17, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted August 17, 2020 I think Ramsdale would be a good signing. Though, if Heaton is fit he starts for me. But Heaton may be crocked for all we know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suggesting, it could've been a lot worse last season for Bournemouth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_eristic Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 Sure, we do need a better option than Nyland and probably Steer while Heaton recovers, but am I the only one who'd be a bit deflated if our first signing were a keeper? Just plain burnt out on them at this point, and after all this spicy winger/forward talk! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wezbid Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 With De Gea seemingly un-droppable despite many of his own and Henderson returning to Utd. I wouldn't be against a move for Romero. 33 is nothing for a keeper and he always looks good when he plays. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pintpotvilla Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 If we are looking for a top quality young Goalkeeper for the future then I cannot imagine a better signing than Ramsdale 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that the SPL is a weak league, but to dismiss it out of hand is crazy IMO. Certainly when we are a club who avoided relegation by the skin of our teeth. We CANNOT sign the best players from the teams above us. No matter how much YOU want us to. Bang on. There’s been Moussa Dembele (Lyon), Kristoff Ajer is going to go for a packet, a certain Stylian Petrov, Mark Viduka and Henrik Larsson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tried to do some more research after we started getting links on here mind. Reminds me of Kodjia. He’s worth watching more of, he’s very good.

I think you also said Edouard wasn’t pacy enough for counter attacking football which was very odd given how quick Edouard is. But the most baffling thing though is you’ve formed this rigid view on Edouard, and the comparison to Kodjia when you openly admit you’ve seen very little of Edoaurd. Thats a real head scratcher. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goalkeeper is a specialised position and if you buy cheap you buy twice/thrice/quice/quince with our record of keepers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just plain burnt out on them at this point, and after all this spicy winger/forward talk! It’s intrigued me, that maybe we’ll spend more than we thought. We know the forward positions needed money spent hence thought no money for defence but maybe we are opportunists as well that if quality comes up we’ll spend more ie like Ramsdale. You always want to improve your team but even better if you can supplement that with opportunity buys. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the contrary if were to spend big on a young up and coming player in the the lowest priority position in the squad it would surely bode well for the higher priority areas in the rest of the window. I think the front 3 will be the hardest areas to recruit so we'll have to wait to get the best we can get. In reality we'll be getting players like Rashica when they know that we're their best option and clubs further up the foodchain are no longer an option for them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
