Yes he is, to have him opposite Grealish on the RW would be insane.

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?

£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..

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.

I briefly glanced at a Norwich forum, and some were praising his ability in the press and in tackling, which I found interesting. 

He ain't a good tackler but he certainly puts it about. Which I will never fault any attacking player for.

Nobody is saying we shouldn't buy another striker.

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.

I picture Buendia playing in the middle, essentially replacing Barkley

I see it as them (Jack and buendia) floating and rotating during the game confusing the hell out of the opposition....

With Traore just doing a random combo of sublime class and equally baffling shite to confuse them even further. lol

My words exactly from the other day against Chelsea re Traore

Don't they just quote news sources?

‘tis a long running gag about Villareport.

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.

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.
