paul514 Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 He is surely on the move after the result today and the possibility they didn't want him cup tied or to get injured (even though that was the stated reason for leaving him out) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demitri_C Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 I think this would explain maybe why we havent bid for watkins as we want this guy. He is bettee than watkins but id rather have both. As we can use watlins out wide too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomaszk Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 ITK silliness yes, but I have it on good authority Celtic need to sell and raise at least £15m this summer. That was before they lost tonight which is a great result if we are in for him. Not sure who else they have that they can raise money with to be honest. From what I've seen I think I'd prefer Watkins to be honest. Haven't seen much of Eduoard though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Posted August 27, 2020 Share Posted August 27, 2020 10 hours ago, rayk said: Yes that is the risk but I’m hoping Rodgers will have to offload a ST (Iheanacho) first? Problem is, Leicester seem to value the player they are looking to replace, at very near to the amount that Celtic are reported to want for the player they may well want to replace him with. That's a problem for them and for Iheanacho, as well as anyone who may be interested in taking him off their hands.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thinknit boils down to.... Edouard looks pure class (in Scotland) Watkins looks pure class (in the championship) Question is, how will either translate to the Prem? Personally I would like both, from watching bits of them it seems to me either could play anywhere along the front 3 if required, although both would almost certainly prefer the striker role. Edouard would probably demand the steiker role, where as I reckon watkins would prefer the striker role but would be happy to play anywhere across the front 3 if he got games.

I began working at a college in Leicester not long after Little had moved from Leicester to Villa. I walked out of the staff room drinking from my Villa mug right into a group of students. Few shouts of abuse and turn around and walked back into the staff room. Was an interesting year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree but to be fair to Edouard he has pedigree coming from the PSG academy and has a top notch U21 record. I agree that getting in both would be great. Who reckons when Wes gets fit we’d play a front three of Watkins, Wes and Edouard? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
