Yeah, Gregg has probaly scouted through this tread and come up with it. Would love it though, think Weston McKennie would be perfectly suited to the PL and us.

Thought the case was he's pretty average, but got a lot of hype because he is on RS books and scored a couple of free kicks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feels like it’s erupted in the past 2 or 3 years for some reason. Its actually ridiculous when you think about it, second tier players going for £20M+ We probably didn't help this with the fees we paid for McCormack, Kodjia and Hogan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its actually ridiculous when you think about it, second tier players going for £20M+ A big part of the reason is probably the money we spent on Kodjia, McCormack and Hogan. Then a 20 year old Maddison went to Leicester for about £20m and made the step up with ease. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better than stalling and ending up with nothing or going for 3rd and 4th choices. Benrahma and Watkins will go straight into our first eleven and improve us. I'd say that is worth 55 million. There is no evidence to say they would improve us.....its all a gamble and 55 mill is a big gamble.......Brentford have won nothing and they are amongst their best players.....it was not long ago 5 mill would have bought the pair.....profit is fair enough, that is extortionate. its ok gambling on a low fee or a big fee but as near as hell a certainty......but anything in between is nervy.....They are not certainties. I suspect Brentford still have an issue with Dean leaving them and that is reflective in the pricing of their players to us......they can do one.

sne Posted August 20, 2020 Author Share Posted August 20, 2020 Isn't Wilson a bit soft and weak? Not saying we need a brute playing on the flanks but I'd like some aggression and someone who will help us win back the ball early. I imagine this is why Klopp don't fancy him. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted August 20, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted August 20, 2020 Not a fan of Wilson tbh. Has never really impressed me when watching him other than the odd 30 yard screamer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My main worry is I have seen that lots of Bournemouth fans haven't taken to him even though he got decent goal figures. Factoring in the British premium I'd probably still take him for around £10-12m if our management team think there's something to work with.

jacketspuds Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 I didn't think Wilson was particularly skilful or quick. Isn't he just some that takes a good free kick and occassionally hits a decent long shot? We need lots more pace in this team. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PieFacE Posted August 20, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted August 20, 2020 Though, Wilson plays on the right and cuts inside on his left doesn't he? We definitely need a right winger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Tomaszk Posted August 20, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted August 20, 2020 Wilson will lash in a few goals but not contribute much overall. We already have Hourihane for that. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
