Confirmed Signing Demarai Gray

[T LEAFE]

He could be being told that there'll be sales and cash later in the window. Nevertheless, atm we have a cheap as chips approach, and maybe he's ok with that...for now.

Well we are a small club so he should be happy with it

 

[davek]

5million pounds a year, for 2 weeks work, thats why.

He's a disgrace and you've backed him to the hilt.

YOU should resign.

 

[Brett Angell Delight]

I assume the SEXINAME at RW is Townsend. You've convinced me, we're going to win the treble.

My mistake. I’d meant to put Townsend as backup and leave Iwobi out altogether.

That’s the spirit, though!

 

[Nippydan]

I suppose it does improve our bench to be fair and actually have people who can come on and potentially do something different to who they replace.

I'm trying to be positive and think that Gbamin is essentially a brand new 20m plus midfielder who we haven't seen yet and ignoring his first stint with us, we've signed a 25m striker from PSG who scored a goal every other game in the French League.

I know I'm clutching at straws, at least we are going into the season knowing that top 6 is unachievable and we don't have to go through the whole hope, disappointment, crushed, why me cycle we go through every year.

I would imagine our profile on Talkshite will be raised somewhat, Jim White and now Townsend. We just need Alan Brazil in as fitness coach and we're well set.

 

[ValBlue]

We have depth. What we lack is quality.

Sadly mate, we lack both. Even sadder, it’s so tough to address both when we’re so strung by awful mistakes from previous windows, FFP and a new stadium.

We'll see. I guarantee if there is any way Benitez can curry favour with fans by pushing a narrative of "the club don't match my ambition" he will.

 

[MikeH72]

Comfortable with these 2 lads, Townsend will likely be more effective than Bernard and Gray is very direct, they give good options and definitely improve the squad

Why is this a theory that exists?

 

[StuBarlow]

I mean they aren't exactly inspired signings but given we have Iwobi and than midget Brazilian it's a position we need a bit of depth...

I do hope if they do sign they are squad players and not first teamers.

 

[StuBarlow]

Why is this a theory that exists?

easy, Bernard and Iwoni are dogshite.

 

[Jebus_lives]

Gray "Benitez wants him"

 

[Everton1654]

We should have signed Iwobi for around £1.5m

 

[roy vernon]

Solo lo mejor

Solo lo peor

 

[akkers]

Why is this a theory that exists?

Purely based on personal observation of both players and factoring in wages, Townsend is a grafter and can work for 90 mins.

 

[Kev50]

City have matched our bid for Gray.
It's now down to the player.
