I do still wonder if we should be getting an out and out 10, Traore isn't our weakest link to be replaced so soon. But yes, Buendia would be a great signing. Maybe Jack is the 10 and we sign two wingers? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted May 25, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted May 25, 2021 If Buendia could find Watkins' runs the way he finds Pukki's it could be a brilliant signing. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodders0223 Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 £40m is a big chunk of change, even in today's market. Would he be the top of my list at that price not really but we don't need major surgery , we have players going out this summer and we have youth prospects coming in. We can afford to splurge on one or two players quite comfortably.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or as I suspect ( would like ), two players which can play all across the front line comfortably. Wing/CAM etc. One stronger on the Left, and one stronger on the right. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GENTLEMAN Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 I briefly glanced at a Norwich forum, and some were praising his ability in the press and in tackling, which I found interesting. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're saying that in the hypothetical scenario that you suggested, that we could spend 40m on Buendia or 40m on Tammy Abraham, it wouldn't make sense to spend that on Tammy when we have a first team quality player in that position, but don't have a first team quality player in Buendia's position But we know we have money for both so why not get both? Having only one striker that we definitely know we can rely on next season is madness. Look how it affected Wolves this season losing their striker. You can cover for most positions in a team with other players but a goal scorer like the gk is a specialist skill. Goals win games, I’m talking about a goal scorer not a striker. I don’t even know why it’s a discussion, we can afford to get both anyway and a CDM as many have requested. It’s not one or the other, we can have both and if we are serious about going after a top 8 spot we need more than just a first XI. Going into a season with one confirmed striker again is madness as while Ollie has a good injury record, a bad tackle could end that never mind poor form, a different option, rest, different alternative formation when it isn’t going our way. Plenty of game time for two goal scorers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although historians and scholars have long since debated it’s origins, it stretches so far back, no one can say for certain when the joke first started.* What experts do agree on however, is that it’s here to stay regardless as to whether it’s amusing or not. It has secured a longevity that Sherwood’s “facials” could only dream of. Expect to see similar over the coming weeks. * Spoiler it started a few years ago 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delphinho123 Posted May 25, 2021 Author Share Posted May 25, 2021 Lookman and/or Neto as well and it’s job done. On a serious note, I’d be so surprised if we weren’t in for Lookman. He’s the exact profile of the player we’re looking to bring in. Young, knows English football, value will increase etc. If we got Lookman and Buendia, I’d just see anything else as a bonus tbh. A defensive midfielder being the other obvious addition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
