From memory, it was supposed to be Greenwood to Juve, Chiesa to United and a sell on clause for United but then Juve backed out and Marseille agreed to a 50% sell on clause. Chiesa for a low fee would be interesting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pizy 19,280 Posted July 26, 2024 Share Posted July 26, 2024 Someone or multiple someone’s at the club must feel like this Omorodion guy is a nailed on future superstar or something if we’re still after him. That’s a ridiculous price Atleti are asking for and if we go anywhere remotely near it even I who has been more forgiving to the club will be dumbfounded. I guess working out some sort of deal where he comes the other way in a Gallagher deal makes sense in theory, but in reality is he the profile of player we need? I just don’t think so. We don’t need another developmental project. We need a plug and play guy who can hit the ground running. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eh, from what I’ve watched on YT he looks like a very decent footballer and an absolute handful for defenders due to his huge size. He’s just raw still much like the other big #9 we were after earlier, Duran. These guys certainly look like they can eventually develop into beasts in a couple of years but we’ve already got Jackson and now Guiu who need to develop. We don’t need a 3rd striker like this.

I think the fact the first window results have been so poor has definitely impacted the approach to investment, and also when you factor in the historic wage burden. For me, the pre Clearlake success ratio is frankly fairly normal at this level. After all this is supposed to be the Elite, and not everyone makes it -- even good players may not. Now, I honestly see a single disappointment of over 25 signing during the Clearlake regime: Sterling. The others were just over-the-hill, free, Loans. Disasi just a bad signing from the get-go -- nobody rated him and he does not even look the part (heavy). Goalies should not count given that you can count in one hand Elite sides playing with a U24 goalie (our next goalie signing will likely be over 25). Nkunku yet to be seen depending on fitness... injury history is not a mystery tho. Ironically the list does not include the absolute worst signing so far: W. Fofana -- big money for someone with such a troublesome injury history. All I see from the list above is incompetence.
