saintant Posted 29 August, 2022 Share Posted 29 August, 2022 The way this is shaping up it looks like we'll have to wait until late Thursday for any signings. It's going to be a nervy one for sure. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dusic Posted 29 August, 2022 Share Posted 29 August, 2022 Brereton Diaz would be a bit underwhelming and I don't think the type of player we need. We need a bit of x factor, someone who can create chances for themselves like Broja did. Any signings from abroad would need to be almost done by EOD Tuesday you would imagine to have enough time for a medical, which certainly wouldnt be rushed if we are to spend a significant amount. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have to wonder why. Same for the Hungarian CB Szalai. at the start of the window I'd have been pleased in signing either but it seems we might have hit on a decent CB pairing although we still need other options.

Forester Posted 29 August, 2022 Share Posted 29 August, 2022 5 hours ago, saintwbu said: Tadic was fantastic for us overall, but he was poor in the last two seasons for us (not the only one) but did basically keep us up almost on his own in the end so my memories of him will always be fond. I distinctly remember him rolling around asking for a foul (nothing in it) at home to Brighton whilst they were on the break down his side and rightly the whole stadium hammered him for it. When you listen to his interview after he left, it makes more sense, he obviously didn’t enjoy the physical side of the Premier League and had had enough of it. This was reflected by his last couple of seasons with us imo. To say Tadic was poor for two seasons is bonkers 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. Same goes to the idiots saying the club are leaking stories so they can claim “they tried”…. We’ve signed several players and, crucially, got them in early.

If that means a quieter end to the window then that’s still a positive overall We've had a good window for sure, but failing to sort out the attack before the end of the window would somewhat undo a lot of that good early work (in my opinion). I think we'll get a couple in so I'm not too worried, but it wouldn't be right to sit here on Friday after not signing anyone and say we had a really positive window.

I think it’s clear we wanted to buy but City rate him that highly that he’s not for sale. As for Dembele, he probably has his sights higher than us. I’ve said this before but I think we should break the bank for Broja if there’s just a slight chance a deal could be struck. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
