Summer transfer window 2023

[Encoder]

Our money needs to go on strikers

Agreed, but we also need creativity. Most out and out strikers don't have that.

Do you think Rodrigo, would be the the centre forward mate. In addition to Harrison & Gnoto.

Would you be happy with that, if that was our business.

Could be but I wouldn't like it personally. I genuinely do think we're in desperate need of a big 6ft5 lump of a striker at the very least who can hold up the ball and win headers, the team is crying out for it as we're basically purposefully built for set pieces and crosses. I don't think a player like that costs much anymore in a certain skill bracket.

If we got those 3, Young and a centre forward I think we'd be perfectly fine, could look to aim for 10th-15th, basically not a relegation battle. I'd like another centre half but I don't think we'll get one and we'll effectively just replace Mina with Branthwaite and not replace Coady. Who knows what the late loan market could bring though, if we could get Young, Gnonto and Rodrigo in for pre season at least I wouldn't mind waiting for further sales or seeing what opens up in terms of deals.

There are 2 very bad things we could do, 1. Splurge what we have now and hope for the best or 2. Wait until the end of window for the majority of business. Think we desperately need bodies now but we can't just pickup anyone that'll come.

Looks pretty good on youtube. Highly rated u19 england player. Can do a bit of everything, like Garner but different style.

I think it would be a good and sensible signing.



IT just makes no sense at all.



Yeah, alright Napoleon...



Disgraceful. Should be actively looking to sell him



Gnonto would be a good move....as long as we also bring in El Bilal or another similar profile forward.

We aren’t getting Toure, I really don’t see Almeria going for that loan with obligation paid in instalments deal the Heil were reporting

Agreed, but we also need creativity. Most out and out strikers don't have that.

We need two forwards who can score goals. At least one of the 2 needs to be an out and out no.9 centre forward

The skills that he's used to bamboozle people into rating him are the exact same skills he uses to bamboozle defenders dave. If he's a bamboozler in one respect then he's a bamboozler in the other and is thus a top, top player.

Top top players dont go to Everton anymore mate, you know this.

No, from what Ive seen of this lad he's all sizzle and no steak.

That should be the first and last time Richarlison is compared with that little no mark.

Er Dave I adored the fella but there were times he looked like he had cinderblocks as feet. But this potential transfer reminds me of richarlison a bit.

 

[Connor]

Harrison

I don't think he's all that, but I'm surprised this hasn't happened yet

 

[Baggzio]

50k PW at Villa was the figure reported when he signed and I’m told by a couple of the journos who have run with it that it will be in 40-50 range with us. It is still significant money and suggests he might play quite a lot assuming his body holds up as well as it did last year.

Not really significant money in this day and age, he's probably on around the same if not less than Patterson and Mykolenko, on less than Davies was too so he'll just fill his role in the wage bill and probably be a far better player for it.

That should be the first and last time Richarlison is compared with that little no mark.

He did score more than Richarlison last season tbf

 

[ToffeeTim]

I watched him a few times last season wondering what the hype was. I watched and I didn;t see it.

I had no idea what he was trying to achieve. He looked perfectly at home with a cluless and ill disciplined Leeds to me.

Harrison is the only one I'd touch from that midden.

Harrison is the only Leeds player id be interested in

 

[blueboy72]

Seems like a reliable source but unless it’s years of instalments or a loan with obligation hard to see how we’d spend that much money on anything other than a striker.

22mil euro is 18mil if we do a 5yr deal it’s 3.6 mil a year. Basically what we’ve just got the simms and the kid who’s gone to Chelsea. The stumbling block is if Leeds what 10 upfront say, then it will need probably moshiri to put his hand in his pocket. But that down payment wouldn’t affect P&S.

Also which has been pointed out by plenty of fans. What we spend now we have 11 months to balance this years accounts

Top top players dont go to Everton anymore mate, you know this.

No, from what Ive seen of this lad he's all sizzle and no steak.

We said that for 6 months about McNeil, maybe Dyche can get the best of him, that’s if the rumour is in anyway true

 

[Librarian]

Impressive

He's scored 13 goals in his career so far...12 of them in Switzerland.

I like it i am not saying he will end up like him but if the lad wants any player to look at it should be rich time here. If gnoto puts in the effort rich did i am hopefull we could get a great player with him
