Aye we have enough inconsistencies and unknown quality in attack without resigning somebody who blew hot and cold for 6 months on huge wages and a huge loan fee. Also the links to Barcelona, they aren’t even concrete. He said he wants to go there but financially, it is going to be impossible. And even then, the links mainly come from Cancelo and Ansu Fati having the same agent, one player who Barca are trying to sign and one they're trying to shift. Plus Atletico and Simeone don’t want Felix. So considering Mendes has a good relationship with Deco, the sporting director, Felix needs a move, its easy to see where these links come from. Not actually been anything on Barca’s end saying they want him or are going to make an offer. Villa have made an offer for him though apparently.

Pizy 18,985 Posted August 27, 2023 Share Posted August 27, 2023 At this point my only hope is that when the name of the player we try to sign is revealed at some point this coming week I’m not asking “who?!” Or worse, we try to get someone who’s well known but super underwhelming. We need a legit difference maker for our attack. Not just a body to make up the numbers. Like, if we decide to get into a bidding war with the Tater Tots for Brennan Johnson and wind up paying £50m for him that would be extremely stupid and embarrassing.

mkh 620 Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 Lyon starlet Rayan Cherki won't be leaving the club this summer, despite plenty of interest, according to L'Equipe. Cherki, 20, has been scouted by Chelsea, Newcastle United, Aston Villa and West Ham United, while Paris Saint-Germain made moves to sign him last season. The France U21 winger remains on the radar of all of the above, but Lyon are looking to hold on to him, especially if PSG manage to sign his teammate Bradley Barcola. Cherki likely won't be moving away from Lyon this season. (ESPN) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caicedo and Lavia are huge investments that the club will surely prioritise in front of the kid now. The kid is seriously good. I think he can challenge Caicedo/Lavia if either slip up Before this Forest move, Porto was looking at him. A good loan could skyrocket his value too Fernando 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mhsc 1,109 Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 The thing that totally throws me is Poch said it’s pointless unless they’re a PL player, as it will take time to adapt if they’re not and by then Nkunku is back. So who the fuck could be a surprising signing that knows the league? Leroy Sane? Hazard? Eze? Fuck knows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mhsc 1,109 Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 Maybe it really could be Eze? He’s got PL experience, and plays on the left or through the middle. He’s good at long shots where we are generally not great, and in general just the sort of profile you could totally imagine slotting in immediately. He’s also a little older (close to his prime) which Poch has been asking for. mkh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneMoSalah 8,887 Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 Eze could be shout. He is still youngish (25) but also experienced enough although Palace is one thing, Chelsea is another. Whether or not he can do what he did for Palace last year for us is the question but his age, experience in terms of games played and profile is what we should be looking for.

Not necessarily someone who is or has actually been in the PL. Probably doesn’t want another situation where it takes a player months to get up to speed with the pace and physicality of this league.
