If Fulham get him it means we weren’t interested. Or they met Brentford s asking price and we didn't. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe but I think with this player I think I’m right. Not because we are bigger or better but all the other factors and close links between people.

Not seriously, there was rumour about another striker we were interested in that never happened at the final moments outside of the Maupay link.

dudevillaisnice Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 Or he may prefer London? Don’t think it’s as clear cut as if he doesn’t come here we didn’t want him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
troon_villan Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 I'll meet in the middle and say yeah we were more than likely interested but not at the asking price. Good stuff, if that's the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's all rumour I know. But it's been suggested DS pulled the plug on Maupay as he believed the price was to high. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AvfcRigo82 Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 Do we have our eyes set on bigger targets? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodders Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 If we want him, the sounds are we have the money to do so, then we beat Fulham to the signature no problem. My reading, possibly bias, is that it's media noise to hurry up our interest, or we aren't actually that interested. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incidentally, he also said Grealish was definitely getting a call up 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All very well, but if you aim high, miss out on them and the likes of Watkins, you end up with Borja Bastón. I'm exaggerating, but the point stands. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t think it’s as clear cut as if he doesn’t come here we didn’t want him. Which is totally fair enough... Brentford to Fulham wouldn’t have to move house, change anything about his life etc, still get paid millions to see if he can make it in the Prem. I’ve made plenty of career decisions on similar grounds (absent being an elite sportsman and the millions). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think he's going anywhere until they have signed his replacement, we have just 12 days left before our season starts on 6th Sept (live on Sky), so not long to wait. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
