I will never give up the dream!!!!! Was no more than a rumour a while back and suggested that he rejected us.

villabromsgrove Posted August 23, 2023 Share Posted August 23, 2023 Brennan Johnson is still my favourite target. He will continue to develop into a top attacker under Unai Emery's coaching, and could be with us for the next half a decade or more. Forget his price, think of the years of top service he will give us. A wise investment in my opinion. (quickest attacker in the PL last season according to the stats) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All those players you've mentioned, we have been linked with ages ago, and some have flat out rejected us. I can't see us wasting time and energy courting players who don't want to be here. We'll have moved on ages ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll have moved on ages ago. Fair… but maybe we have something agreed in the “background” and we’re just waiting on sorting out a few sales…? I’m sure there will be a few signings incoming shortly but have a strong feeling about us making a BIG transfer… Hard to speculate on who that may be, aside from the aforementioned names… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted August 23, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted August 23, 2023 Striker is the area that intrigues me most. We're not going to go and get a huge money signing, it's going to be a value guy, but that's an interesting market - it's going to be someone really random, probably an older guy with good stats who is happy for a few starts and sub appearances. Really interesting potentially 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really interesting potentially Agreed - every year people think we will finish the summer pulling a rabbit out of a hat and signing a superstar but that never happens. Those signings are made early. It’ll be someone who makes sense for us and the squad but isn’t necessarily the big name the message boards get wet over.
