Any suggestions? I mentioned Volland the other day when he came on for Germany. Late 20s and generally had a very solid scoring record in Bundesliga. Been a first choice for Monaco though last season but if they're impacted with french league cash crisis I'd imagine they'd let him go rather than Ben Yedder. He can also play wide so would fit the football profile we should be looking for if not the general age profile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thabucks Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 I think the fact that the potential signing of Tammy draws such polar opposites in terms of views says it all really about him as a footballer myslef. Cannot remember another recent potential signing which has split the forum as much in recent memory. Didn’t really warm to him when he was here and want fussed at all when he didn’t sign. I see the limitations in his game more than his positives and feel it’s a lazy easy link to make and one we should avoid 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkeypuzzle Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 This time last year I was desperate for us to sign Buendia and Benrahma to play either side of Grealish. Well we played Grealish on the left most of last season and decided not to go for either player in the end. Now we have Buendia but I can't help but wish we had Benrahma too. West Ham never felt like a club that would suit his style and he didn't have the greatest of seasons, but he is still one I would love to have had. I think it's too late now sadly Another who could play in a few positions and create something from nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post dont_do_it_doug. Posted June 27, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 27, 2021 I love Lucas Torreira, although he definitely wouldn't satisfy those who want a big beefy beefcake DM, he's tenacious in the tackle and an excellent reader of the game. He has untapped potential and is crying out for a move to a club on the up who can exploit it. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's said he prefers this position as he get more freedom and can cut in onto his right foot.

Tayls Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 I honestly don’t think we need to splash out on another striker… Watkins is the main man, and we have Wesley as back up. Spending millions on another is silly at this stage as they will be benched most of the time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post HalfTimePost Posted June 27, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 27, 2021 I wouldn't mind a forward in the mould of* any of Son, Mane, Salah, Sterling, Bale, Aubameyang, Werner, Rashford, Martial, Greenwood. I'm not against a forward coming in, I'm against spending £40m on Lanky Darren Bent when he doesn't slot into any reasonable XI we play. Competition is all well and good but we have much bigger gaps to spend £40m on. I like Tammy, but he's not what we need. It's claret and blue tinted glasses in the same way we need a Centre Back and I guarantee we will have Tuanzebe mentioned a few times this summer. (The clicks it will generate will also mean we inevitably get linked by The Mirror too, the same with Tammy) * Don't comment on the names, it's more a showing of how these names can all play wide, not as a winger but as an inside forward. They *can* play up top if needed but would be also adept at playing wide and strengthen our team. 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
