Player Suggestion Next "Big" Signing

[BladeInIreland]

We all got excited by the ambition shown in signing of Berge and it looks like we can look forward to similar in the future. So who would you like to see come in who would have a similar wow factor?

Criteria- Not Henderson and a cap of say 35mill. Not looking for the best bargain necessarily just semi realistic targets in that next level.

I'm going to throw in Andrea Belotti, border line unrealistic but will have one year left on his contract in the summer and last paper talk I could find was talking about 30 mill.

Ticks alot of Wilder boxes, hard worker and a captain. Nearly 1 in 2 for Torino and 9 in 27 for Italy. One of the things I like is he scores a variety of goals including importantly headers. Something we seem to lack. A couple of years ago we would have had to pay alot more. Might need European football to attract him, would certainly be a step in that direction for us though.

 

[S40BLADE]

Eduoard or Dennis

 

[Ricky]

Seko Fofana
Nadiem Amiri
Sander Berge
Ruslan Malinovskyi
Emiliano Buendia
Ante Rebic
Jonathan David
Hwang Hee Chan
Mounir Chouiar
Odsonne Edouard


Fuck knows.

It seems we could go after almost anybody.

 

[BladeTillIDie]

Edouard
Zapata
Muriel
Cantwell

 

[tomgclarke]

Barry Bannan.

 

[ScottBlade]

Sandro Tonali. Good competition for Norwood.

Edit
256m price tag!!! WTF

 

[ReeceofBDTBL]

Kalvin Phillips if Leeds balls it up again.
Kyle Walker
Tom Cairney if Fulham don’t go up
Brooks if Bournemouth drop
Buendia
Pukki
Delofeu if Watford drop

 

[FriethBlade]

If we r spending big...again....then it's one position isnt it...centre forward...assuming we dont lose any of our top players.

On that criteria I'd go for Mitrovic as he'll score goals in the premiership. Or we could put a cheeky bus in for Aguero when we make the champions league !!!

 

[Sam64]

I think we'll sign Dennis, so him

 

[Danetheblade]

Belotti would be my wet dream signing in the summer. Highly unlikely however folk were saying that about Berge.

 

[Good Pinch Of Snuff]

Kyle Walker is nailed on

 

[CaptainMorgans]

I'd still really like Florian Grilitsch, from Hoffenheim. Be a huge upgrade in the middle of the park, fairly athletic, two footed, great with the ball, likes to sit.

I get shot down a lot for this, but I still really think Che Adams has it in him to be an excellent player at the top level and would certainly improve our options from the bench as a minimum.

The big position to look at is McGoldrick's and how we plan for life beyond his career. I don't want us to gravitate too heavily towards a direct style of play, so a link man would be ideal.

 

[Kev Gee]

Pietro Pellegri
Eddie Salcedo

No reason other than they are decent on football manager. And of a good age were they can improve.

 

[SwissBlade]

Grealish

 

[Brian Deane]

A younger version of messen. No idea of name or what he would cost and where he is currently playing UTB

Slightly disagree on the 'one position'.
I would rather have an improved version of McGoldrick, someone like Grealish if possible.

 

[Bill puntin]

Barry Bannan.

Out of our league

 

[Ricky]

Cantwell, Tonali and Grealish
(Liverpool)......... (Juventus)............. (Barcelona)

Great shouts

 

[BladeInIreland]

I'd say Grealish would be 60m plus as good as he would be.

 

[Yellarbellyblade]

Out of our league

Literally!!!

 

[Sam64]

I know we got Berge but some of these names being said on here are ridiculous. Never in a million years are we signing Tonali or Grealish.

 

[Nicolaus_Copernicus]

If we qualified for europe, and prior to the start of euro 2020, we should seriously go after Piatek, ex of AC Milan, now of Hertha Berlin. He's 24 yrs old, an international quality forward, who has the skill set to play both for us & in the Prem and would cost about £25m. He's made a couple of bad career choices which have subdued his value.

 

[Ricky]

Suat Serdar

Go on then

*No chance

 

[Tarqs]

I really miss the

 

[blademark]

I'd say Grealish would be 60m plus as good as he would be.

Probably right, he'll be out of our range for sure. But that type of player is what we are missing to enable us to progress even further . Not that I'm complaining at all, but all teams have to look to improve don't they.

 

[Tarqs]

Tell ya something, there should have been plenty of clubs lining up to take Shandon Baptiste for 3m alone, but when the deal also includes Fosu, then it's an absolute no brainer.

Brentford have had everyones pants down with this deal.

 

[Mouth of the South]

Not as glamorous a name as some already listed but I honestly think Ollie Watkins will be the biggest outlay over summer assuming Brentford don't go up.

 

[Large Mendonca]

I think we'll sign Dennis, so him

It would certainly cause a bit of a storm..........

 

[DeanLearner'sCat]

Belotti isn't totally unrealistic at this point. He was linked with every big club in Europe a few years back, but nobody went for him and the club he has most strongly been linked with recently has been West Ham.

 

[BlairBlade]

Florian Belotti or Florian Loren or Florian Edouard, Florian Grillitsch and Luke Woolfenden.

Luke would obviously be the odd one out and cause a bit of confusion with all the other Lukes we have.

One thing about Wilder's transfer policy, does everyone he buys have to speak English?

Would be nice to have a Florian in the team. I was once asked to be Prince Florian in the school play when I was 10. Don't think I slept for a week and it wasn't because of excitement!
