I do hope so, but could be the other, less exciting lad. Terrier seems to have been mentioned by the more reliable sources though.like your thinking , mon ami - Rennes lets the dog out?
I don’t think Simms would’ve been seen as a long term solution to replace DCL, but then nor am I convinced the Swedish lad will necessarily be much, much better.
Sending Simms on loan probably the right thing to do but, knowing Rondon was suspended, should’ve been done later. Simms on loan could’ve also been a very useful bargaining chip for, say, signing Coventry’s striker.
Cheers mate, just read the story on l'equippe.That French player you like going to Rennes for 25m mate (Euros)
Absolute outstanding weather. Hadn’t been down for year but we rented a wee cottage and we’ll be back before too long.You're not far from me Bob, good fishing to be had on Lough swilly.Great weather eh.
Cheers mate, just read the story on l'equippe.
Seems final agreement close to being made, come on the gazzumping Everton I love
25m euros including the bonuses and a sell on but no buy back.
We should be trying to match that offer tbh
Yeah I’d like to think it would at worst be scenario 2 if not 3. This guy alone does not guarantee the quality we need to compete in the PL. He could only be part of the solution.Don't mind this deal at all to be honest, despite what his compilations look like an all that he still did get nearly 20 goals in a league last season. We all rave about how much of a loss Calvert Lewin is for us when he's not fit but if you actualy put him in a compilation he scores some properly crap goals but a goal is a goal.
Spending just £10m on him also suggests one of three things.
1. That's all we've got left and are spending it on him.
2. We're spending lower on him and leaving more for another experienced player on a loan
3. We're spending low on him as a prospect buy but are trying to structure a bigger more complicated deal for someone like Terrier
Personally I think 1 is unlikely as I think if he was the only one with that price we'd probably go after someone else cheap with experience like Batshauyi or someone like that.
2 is the most like and I think is what we'll be doing, he'd be a player to come in and do a job and grow for a year or so, with a more Richy type player coming in playing regularly enough.
3 is dream scenario obviously and with the way this window has gone for us I don't even think it's out of the realm of possibility. I think getting a lad like him in now that can immediately start helping the squad will allow us to get to basically right to the deadline trying to sort a higher profile player and work on a single deal for weeks if needed without much pressure to complete it as we know this lad is here already. Would also massively help our bargaining power too, if teams know we're desperate for a forward they'll take us for a ride, if they know we have options already they're less likely to mess us about and just get the deal done instead.
In those situations you can often see a player choosing a bigger club and basically forcing their own clubs hand to accept a lower bid than they would to a rival. Same reason you're more likely to sell players to a foreign league than to a PL rival for a premium, Coventry selling him to Boro weakens their team whilst strengthens Boro's, selling to us only weakens them.It would have to be mostly upfront as Boro have already had an £8m bid rejected earlier this summer ?
