Aleksandar Mitrovic

[ThatJa]

Will Jokanovic tempt him?!

38 goals in 61 Championship appearances!

 

[Yogi]

Not knocking him as a player or his record but given the amount of work that needs doing elsewhere in the squad and the fee and wages he’s likely to command this would appear to be a luxury we just can’t afford.

 

[HoodedClaw]

Some midfielders first please.

 

[FriethBlade]

Getting in a bit now too but he's proven at that level. Only way he come in is if McBurnie or Brewster are sold for good money

 

[Yellarbellyblade]

Tom Cairney please

 

[SwitchBLADE Smiles]

Only if the Prince wants to pay his £60k p/w wages. Probably more to get him out of London.

 

[BladeInIreland]

I think he was one of the players the Prince said he wanted to sign before he got to England. As said above we would need to lose one to justify getting him in.

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

We have a Jebbison, don't need a Mitrovic

Hes 26

 

[DifferentClass]

It's a yes from me if only for the song which Wigan fans nicked.

 

[jono_t2000]

Apparently gone AWOL at Fulham. Some sort of bust up, pretty likely he's going to leave.

Sell Oli Mac to Rangers and get Mitrovic in?

He turned down better offers than Fulham previously to join up with Slav and was pretty upset when he got sacked.

Im a fan of McBurnie but Mitro makes me feel funny in my nether regions...

F in he'll mate u r correct, he's been around ages and I'd assumed he was 30 plus....he definitely hasn't aged well

sell mcburnie and bring mitrovic in i think he would be a fantastic signing and would become a cult player at the lane

Without wanting to trot out cliches from this last year or two I’m going to have to say it. I don’t think we can afford his wages

Your probably right, but its likely the squad will be trimmed down quite a bit, Rodwell, Jags, possibly Bryan, Moussett, Burke,, will they all need to be replaced, or can the U23s step up and offer cover

 

[dillis]

Unless we want to smash our wage structure there is absolutely no way we’ll be signing either Cairney or Mitrovic

Jags and Bryan I’d say can’t be replaced from the under 23’s at present as both saw significant time this last year and the 23’s centrebacks no matter how talented aren’t ready for championship men’s football in any capacity imo. Rodwell could be replaced by anyone as he’s contributed nothing. But we’ll also need to replace lunny and Berge.

 

[CaptainMorgans]

I was at the game where Fulham turned us over 3-0 at Craven Cottage. They looked superb that night. Mitrovic scored a couple & absolutely bullied Richard Stearman. After one of his goals he stood in front of him, towering & tensed both his biceps before barging past him. Animal.

He'd be such a good player at this club but, sadly, I can't see him wanting to join us & I don't think we'd pay those sorts of wages for him. As above, we probably have bigger priorities too.
Having said that, if we could shift McBurnie & bring in Mitrovic then it's an absolute no brainer.

Robinson, Lowe, even Enda are options at Left back, agree re Lunny/Berge and obviously a lot of pressure on JOC to come back fit

We dont have a wage structure. The Prince said so in the interview when he threw Wilder under the bus.

 

[ancientblade]

im not so sure these players will be out of our reach could be loans with a view to buy if we get promoted back to the prem and financially we should be in the top 6 championship clubs dont dismiss it so easily

 

[Yogi]

I’m comfortable with our options at left back in fact we need to ship 1 or 2 out. Also pretty happy with both our current and future options upfront. We need first team centremids and cover at centreback. Then depending on formation we’ll need either a 10 or wingers

 

[ormester]

Proven scorer we do

 

[Newbury Blade]

You’re asking if Rodwell will need to be replaced?

After a couple of years with relatively no injuries, last season highlighted what can happen, add in mardy arse Lundstrom and new players trying to fit tge system Ampadu/ Brewster/Burke/Bogle/Lowe, its about getting the balance right in terms of squad size and saving on wages to bring in what's missing, think a few will be worried, a few maybe even surprised at the interest/options they have, Bogle to Norwich, Mcburnie to Rangers (paper talk)?

 

[Hagansbootlaces]

No I am highlighting some that could be off the wage bill and if the U23s could offer cover, Rodwell, Jags only named on the bench or got a game because of a never ending injury list

Yeah I think we’ll see a fair amount of turnover in terms of squad players going out. Bogle won’t be worth us selling for what Norwich are likely to offer mcburnie on the other hand maybe.

 

[ancientblade]

15m mcburnie no brainer if any club is daft enough to pay us that much for him and in any case just dont see him as a jokanovic type of player get rid

 

[robbiez666]

He was our player of the season but I can't imagine we could afford him or he'd want to come. Might go to a newly promoted team on loan. Maybe Norwich.
