Deeg67 Posted 4 June 2021 Share Posted 4 June 2021 Just now, Nick said: He scored 11 this season and a had a couple of assists. In fairness he started the season looking phenomenal but tapered off at the mid point. 40 million is the issue. He's a talent, but the production doesn't match the cost and never has.

Be ideal I've been saying it for years but he's 28 now and I doubt he fits our player model in a number of ways... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gerard Posted 4 June 2021 Share Posted 4 June 2021 3 hours ago, Dusty said: Anyone else find all the links we’ve had a little underwhelming? I think they’re all solid players: Tarkowski, Soumare, Edouard etc but I don’t think any of them progress us that much or improve our starting 11? Feels like there are no Fofana esque signings that are an exciting player that can go on to be world class. Personally think we should go all out for Trincao if he’s available as there is something special about him that could really take us to the next level. Don't agree at all, last year Tarkowski, Soumare, & Edouard were being quoted £30m-£40m each and if we pick all three of them up we'll get them for half that because they all have one year left on their contracts. I'm a tad concerned that there has been no really solid links to a RW and Trinicao would be my No1 target. I think we look pretty toothless playing WB's but a back four we look like we can blow teams away when Maddison and Barnes are fit and firing. I just hope BR doesn't have us using WB's as our stock formation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he is probably past the point of being able to provide something for us, could barely even get into a dodgy Everton side and doesn't have a good injury history Expect to see him join one of the bottom half/newly promoted teams 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happily have Zaha here as a player but we shouldn't be paying £40m+ for a player who is 29 this year. It has loads of similarities of Everton signing Sigurdsson when you're paying top money for a player who is in the latter stages of his career, no resale value and everything is known about him and still the top clubs aren't interested. He's undoubtedly one of the best players in the PL outside the elite clubs and would improve us but long term this is a poor distribution of limited funds.

cruzFOX Posted 4 June 2021 Share Posted 4 June 2021 I'm not getting proper excited until we've signed both Edourde as striker and a solid attacking right sided winger. We may have to prize the winger from an established team which will cost money but if we get it right this time it will pay dividends! C'mon scouting team get to work and find that diamond FFS! No more duds please this is an important position. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darko2k7 Posted 4 June 2021 Share Posted 4 June 2021 Anyone take Fernandinho on a free , 36 I know and not sure what motivation he would have but still had a decent season for Man City. Bit of winning experience in the middle of the park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit of winning experience in the middle of the park. Knowing our luck, all those yellow and red cards he should have received for the copious number of cynical fouls he committed, would come home to roost, should we sign him. So he'd only be eligible for about a quarter of the games. In all seriousness, too old for me and wouldn't be motivated to play for an unfashionable club.
