Cizzler Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 Never been completely sold on him. Works hard, is quick and stronger than he looks, I’ve just always been unsure if his technical ability is really up to the top level. Maupay always looked the better striker when they were both there (Watkins was shunted out wide to let Maupay play through the middle). I think he’s better than what we have currently, I would just prefer Edouard. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Condimentalist Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 Would be a solid squad signing but we can't gamble on him making the step up so I hope we would have another in mind too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farlz Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 I'm all for this, has all the attributes to be a good Premier League striker. £18m is a decent price as well. Hopefully us having Smith in charge should put us in a good position when it comes to competition for his signature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudevillaisnice Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 I think he is an great option for us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 18m thats a steal for me. He is different to our other strikers. Personally sell Samatta loan out davis and get watkins and one othee striker in. Happy if true 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squad player? It really doesn't take much to be a better player than both Wes and Samatta. Edited August 5, 2020 by villalad21 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WakefieldVillan Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 Would be delighted with this signing. Young, quick, strong, knows where the net is (albeit so far at a lower level) and has the potential to improve along the way. Can play up top or wide so gives us an option either way. I just hope we also have a big name proven striker coming in too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't mind Celtic's Edouard, he looks like he could get better at 22 y.o. The Championship is a higher level than the Scottish Premiership IMO. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy if true agreed on loaning out davis. think that's a no brainer. but i've not given up on samatta yet...i think he needs a partner though. hoping with 4 strikers (wes, sama, watkins, 1 other) smith will go 2 up top more regularly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GENTLEMAN Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 Why didn't we just trigger the release clause in Jan instead of purchasing Samatta? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudevillaisnice Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 He is a better option than Davis imo so we are strengthening the squad. Davis should go out on loan or be sold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
