Transfer Rumour Evan Ferguson

I don't think he's saying that at all. Because a Beto or a Maupay isn't a 10-15 goals guy.

A Richarlison is a clear upgrade on those two but isn't a Lukaku in terms of out and out goals. But he's capable of 10-15. Just to provide an example.

He cost £45m and had scored 5 premier league goals in 37 games when we bought him. A guy who scores 15 goals costs at least £80m.

It's Catch 22, any player without a question mark against them are either too expensive and/or wouldn't dream of joining us. So the only players we can sign have a huge question mark against them for some reason. I think there is a smaller question mark for Ferguson because there is a good body of evidence that he has the talent to be a huge success at this level. I'd sooner take a risk on attitude (which can improve with age, environment and management) over talent (which can't be improved).

I agree mate with the sentiment mate and agree he is the type of signing we should want.

Just don’t think we should be spending £40m when the squad desperately needs more than just a striker. And essentially, that’s what it would end up being, all our money on him.

It’s clear we don’t have a lot of cash still. And we need more than one position resolved.
