Cavani had a cob on last season because he wasn’t getting games because of Ronaldo, he’s not coming here to compete with DCL, nor are we taking on his wage.
30 million for Iheanacho…Marcel…is that you!?!?Would like to see us go in for Iheanacho, I reckon we could get him for around £30m.
Everyone focused on the striker position because Dom is out for a month seems to be forgetting that we still don’t have a midfield which we don’t actually have any injuries to. They’re all just crap. We need both but midfield still priority 1 for me.
There’s not enough goals in the Side with DCL in it though, nevermind without him. Rondon, dele, gray, Gordon and McNeil got 10 PL goals between them last year, that isn’t even close to being enough. Add in doucoure, Iwobi and gueye and it’s 17. Another attacker should have been very high on the agenda anyway.Hope not. I'd much rather we played Dele up front and stuck to signing a developing player that can come off the bench. We've done without recognised centre forwards before. It is possible.
Yeah they've done well, although Colwill fee being reported as 20-25 mil with a 40-45 mil buy back. Too rich for our blood, and a serious price tag for a kid with one season of Championship football under his belt, especially when the buy back limits the upside. On the flipside though getting 50m the other way for Cucurella is great business so it balances out.Colwill to Brighton as part of the Cucurella deal apparently. He'll kick on and goto a big club for massive fee in a few years. Such a well run club down there. Puts us to shame.
Pity we couldn't have done something similar with them, there would've been deals to be made with them wanting Richarlison and us apparently wanting 22 of their 24-man squadSee Chelsea and Brighton are up to profit and sustainability shenanigans with profit and sustainability with Coliwell and Cucurella deals.
mad that we sold richarlison our best player and brazil's number 9 for the same amount as brighton's left back who has played 1 season for them
He’d want a disgustingly obscene wage so noWe should sign Cavani for 1 season ?

Ah didn't realise they'd included it in the Colwill deal. Smart really because he's so highly thought of and they'll want three world class centre backs starting so minutes will be limitedThey look like they are getting into the practice of insisting on buy back clauses now mate, they did it with Tino last year and Levi here. With the new loan rules think this will be their default with their stable of young players.
We may be better off not going there….
