DCJonah Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 I don't get the hate nixon gets. He reports a lot of speculation, he doesn't usually claim its happening. I think when he does make make those claims his record is usually decent. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 Good player and one that I hope we are in for, I think he's the best striker link we've had so far and it'll be great to piss off the deluded sweaties But if celtic have any sense and don't want or need to sell then he's not a £30m player, joelinton and Haller at £40m and he's a lot better than both 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they miss out on the CL group stages they might be forced to sell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that's about right JV as Watkins is equally as effective on both left and right wings, which are positions that we're also looking to bolster and improve during this window...

Nixon gets a lot of stick unfairly, in my opinion. He was the first journo to report the Abraham Wolves bid, Nyland’s injury last season, Hepburn-Murphy going to Cambridge and also Terry’s appointment. Also, Gregg Evans broke the news of our interest in Heaton, then a few weeks later, Nixon broke the news of our bid 12 hours before the rest of the national press reported it. He gets info, for sure. Some people just love to hate him, maybe because of The Sun. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skarroki Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 We should make a thread for all the tenuous links we have to players, like a summer transfer window thread or something like that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rayk Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 I think Edouard would be a fantastic signing, capable of scoring both wonder goals and the bread and butter ones. But it’s his movement and workrate that really impress me. I said last week why don’t we offer up Samatta on loan as a sweetener. Playing in the SPL may help him get his goalscoring mojo back, and that obviously helps us by making him a sellable asset again. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
