How would we give game time to Wilson, Watkins, Wesley and Samatta? Watkins on the wing, Wilson first choice, Samatta backup. Wesley, when he returns, ousts samatta and maybe Wilson also. I dont see watkins as a striker if we sign him, but tbh I don't see us signing him if we get Wilson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villabromsgrove Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 I watched a lot of Brentford matches last season and Rico Henry is the fastest LB I've seen. Sometimes he's almost too quick as he can arrive in front of a striker in a dangerous position without the composure to dispossess him. He's good going forward though. If 7 million was an accurate figure he would make a great signing to battle with target for LB, but I reckon he would be 10 mil with a couple of mils as add ons..

We have potential to sign Wilson with a decent premier league scoring record and a decent career scoring record (better than Rodrigo) and it's underwhelming. Literally cannot win. Not for me. I'm actually happy Leeds spent so much on him as it looks a bad deal to me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or he was unlucky, I can remember a couple of instances where the keeper pulled off a really good save which should have gone in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How would we give game time to Wilson, Watkins, Wesley and Samatta? If you'd have said to me at the start of the window we would be sensible with our transfers, and look for good deals and spend approx. £72mill on: Romero (£8mill) Cash (£16mill) Watkins (£28mill) Wilson (£20mill) I'd have said no f***ing way, our club would not be that stupid. Absolutely baffling. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lewis Grabbon got 20 goals last season. Troy Deeley will probably get close to 20 next season. I think there is potentially a top striker in Davis if he can get a run of games and keep injury free. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to stay well clear from any loan deal if there isn't an option to buy or extend the loan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was a suggestion for a scenario where there is no good option for a striker and we save our money to spend elsewhere on the 11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
