VillaFaninLondon Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 10 minutes ago, Mazrim said: Not fussed with Wilson. He's potentially decent if serviced but I think we can do better. I'm not sure we're after him at all but if we are, and we really want him, we can beat Newcastle to him. We’ve had an official bid for him rejected and returned with a new one today. This isn’t ‘fake’ news, it’s official. So unless we’re making bids for the sake it, then we’re obviously after him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Farlz Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 I’m 50/50 on whether I want Wilson but it seems clear now he’s someone the club want. If we can’t get it done over Newcastle then that is a bit of a concern for me. This is professional football, him being a Coventry man means **** all really. Doherty is an Arsenal fan and who’s he just joined.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomaszk Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 Is there a reason we aren't going for King instead? He was great towards the end of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doherty is an Arsenal fan and who’s he just joined.. Spot on. It’s not him being a Coventry fan for his preference, he clearly sees Newcastle as a better option. Some in denial about this but it’s a very big concern. And if they (Newcastle) sign him, Fraser and Lewis they definitely ain’t going down next season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Steve Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 Newcastle-based journalists hyping up Newcastle. Sky journalists trying to influence the betting markets for which they have a stake in. Let’s not get sucked into their manufactured dramas. Wait and see. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surprisingly, the negative stories are very believable. I wouldn't call these people bedwetting idiots or anything because that would be rude.

That’s that then We can but hope. Obscene money for a 28yo injury prone AVERAGE striker. Pay Celtic what they want for Edouard. He is only 22 so will be an increasing asset. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're a player at RB Salzburg, you know that all the top clubs in Europe are looking at you and you'll get a move to one if you keep performing. There's absolutely no point in a player like him moving to a team like us right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rayk Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 The thing about Wilson I worry about is that he is instead of Ollie Watkins. I’m not the biggest fan of Watkins but Wilson for £5m-£8m less is not the answer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyM3000 Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 I certainly want some experience in but I don't personally think Wilson is someone I'd target. Anyone is going to be an upgrade on what we have but he's 28, only scored more than 8 prem goals a season once, 20m isn't a lot but I feel this could be better spent elsewhere.
