Ivan toney

[bonnet de douche]

Bring him in and if he's not ready for EPL, loan him to a championship team. Easy

why bother ...just a waste of time and energy..let’s just look for someone who can play for us

 

[Flatulent_Bob]

I would have Dembele, not much experience but pace, skill and a great football brain
Admittedly only seen him on u tube but if wilder fancies him as one to develop he is definitely the “type” that we need.

We should Also be looking to poach Peterborough chief scout

Or analyst, I’m sure he’d jump at the chance.

Would think Toney has been sold, but to who?

 

[SufcBilly]

Would think Toney has been sold, but to who?

Would think Celtic are high up the list if Edouard with them being knocked out of the champions league last night

 

[KoppedOff]

Would think Toney has been sold, but to who?

Maybe Darraghs just had him whacked.

Its certainly dragging on this Toney saga, I just don't think it'll be us if we're after Burke and likely to play him up top according to Nathan Hemmingham from Yorks Post. Maybe this will see the Toney move speed up, to whoever that will be.

As for Clarke-Harris, another centre player leaves Bristol Rovers having scored 20 plus goals and he never scored that many before. I don't think there's a club in the lower leagues that's had so many goal scorers, sold them on and most got 20 plus in one season or more before leaving. Off the top of my head, Rickie Lambert, Matty Taylor, Ellis Harrison, Barry Halyes, Jamie Cureton, Nathan Ellington, Marcus Stewart and Jason Roberts.

That's not including Bill Boden and ex-blades Will Hoskins and Gareth Taylor - loved Taylor during his time with us.

 

[FallowfieldBlade]

Toney and Brewster id take that all day long

 

[Blade56]

Who is it in the video Dembele?

 

[SufcBilly]

He rejected Brentford hoping a Prem offer came in, there wasnt one so has settled for Brentford, bet they are chuffed

 

[Sheffsteel]

It’s just said on the Talksport news.
A deal has been agreed by all parties and he’s about to sign for Brentford....made it sound like it’s a done deal.

 

[robbiez666]

perfect Brentford player. Needs a season in the Champ.

 

[Yellarbellyblade]

If true (Talksport!) then surely mean Watkins is going somewhere

 

[Wards]

Villa

Dean Smith in 5... 4.... 3....

 

[TommyAndy]

10 mil to Brentford.

 

[sufcboy95]

£10m for a league one player is bonkers. First season he’s really scored a hatful of goals, and at 24 he’s not exactly a kid.

They’ll sell him for double that if they don’t go up

 

[FallowfieldBlade]

And we'll be one of the mugs chasing him why not buy him now

 

[Ldn_Rd_Blades]

And we'll be one of the mugs chasing him why not buy him now

Because he needs experience at a higher level than league one first and Brentford will improve him I guess

Although we should have bought him when we were in league one, sure we we linked with him.

 

[Stannington Blade]

Gone to Brentford. Wonder if this was as a Watkins replacement?

 

[Grizzly blade]

And this is the first time Brentford have ended up paying a big fee.
This could be the player that breaks them. Wages will be high, fee high...yes Watkins will go to balance the books again but if Toney is a success and they fail to go up again then they are left hoping whatever they sell him for will balance the books again.

I’m interested to see if the actual creative players leave, they have been the ones making the difference rather than Watkins.

They're after a lad in the bundesliga as well for 5 million to replace benrahama

 

[gaffablade]

no denying that Brentford has a fantastic recruitment system.
So we should have bought this one, and saved the ‘is he worth £25m’ debate next season.......

How on earth does it break them. 5m player in, 25m out.

Nah, they've spent papes before. They spent around £6m on Mbuemo and he's already worth at least double that. Jannson no doubt cost a pretty penny too. For all the talk of them buying cheap and selling for high, their first 11 I think cost a good 30m (although our resident Bees may correct me).

They genuinely have a very good business model and scouting system.

 

[Booker4]

Guessing we were never in for Toney anyway, but it'll be interesting to see how he does for them.

 

[Ranmoorblade]

I’m guessing Wilder didn’t fancy him having worked with him before.

 

[BobblesBlade]

He's not going to Brentford. In fact, he's not going to ANY championship club. He's said he'll only move if it's to a premier League team.

?

 

[Danetheblade]

?

he said that in an interview, change of heart or playing for a bigger wage?
