HarvSFC Posted 1 June, 2021 Share Posted 1 June, 2021 Expect Eddie Howe to finally end up at Everton. Could be why he turned down Celtic last week, as Ancelotti to Real Madrid won’t have came over night. Would be a risky appointment, I feel.

They’re actually a really good team but they’re just lacking a half decent center forward. They create a lot of good chances, just don’t put them away. However, Just keeping Brighton in the league is an achievement, to be honest. Given the resources at someone like Everton / Tottenham I think he’d do really well.

Total system player, gets a tonne of goals because chucking the ball into the box over and over is the only way Burnley know how to play. Can't see Grealish and Traore hitting the byline and whipping it in on every attack so he will get very few goals. Honestly wouldn't have him over Adams.

Wolves fan up there has said that a number of rumblings that Nuno was unhappy with the club, and that the 'preferred leak and gossip' was that he was a bit homesick, and lockdown prevented him seeing his family. The other comment doing the rounds was that he was pissed off with the direction of the club, and speculated that the Chinese owners were losing interest.

TWar Posted 3 June, 2021 Share Posted 3 June, 2021 Zaha making his annual transfer request. Might actually happen this time too as he has 2 years left so probably their last chance to sell and make good money off it. Probably worth about £35m, but United have a 25% sell-on so will only make about ~£26m off him. Could be in a lot of trouble if they don't spend well this summer.

saint1977 Posted 4 June, 2021 Share Posted 4 June, 2021 Caveat that it is in the Sun but Norwich linked with £10m move for Ajer at Celtic who is in the last 12 months of his deal. Would be an ideal Vesty replacement and IIRC right footed so good partner for Salisu. As for Zaha, optimistic to think he will have moved by pre season training. Doubt if CP will sell unless it’s a silly offer - which won’t happen with the market a bit down for all bar elite players like Kane - until the new manager in place and formulated their plans with him in and out of them. Plus Eze out effectively for most of next season at full throttle even if the Achilles has healed by new year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
