Emmanuel Dennis - Real Madrid slayer

[Brownieblade]

Has Dennis club indicated they are willing to send him out on loan ??

 

[Bladesman2019]

Can see this getting done in January, like the Berge deal. Hope I’m wrong and we see him sign this window!

 

[Yellarbellyblade]

Hope we’re not building this guy up to fail if he does come. If he was the next big thing in Europe he’d be linked with one of the really big clubs (even bigger than Wednesday!!) and he’s not as far as I can see.
He might well be very good but let’s keep our expectations under control

 

[Blade56]

2+2 isn't it??

Henderson, Besic, Zivkovic & Retsos

I thought it was 2+ unlimited overseas

Dortmund, Inter Milan, AC Milan, Atalanta, Arsenal all been linked. are they not in the upper echelon?

Aye but if any one of those clubs was concretely in for him then:

a) he’d have probably gone by now; and

b) we wouldn’t even be in the race.

Not knocking him at all, he’s clearly a talent and think he could flourish with us - he is definitely my preferred striker of all of those we have been connected with this summer. But agree that if this were to come off we need to keep expectations in check, could be a slow burning start (not dissimilar to Sander).

Liverpool and Napoli and West Ham were after Berge didn't stop us beating them too him.

I think he'd need to get used to the pace of the premier league game agree, but would say its arguably easier for a striker to get used to it than a midfielder, especially Berge coming in and playing such a strange and demanding role. we shall see, i dont think we will get him but my hope is there

If youre referring to my idea.
No not at all.
I'm just trying to squeeze him into the hints Wilders has been giving us.

Are they real links though? We’re linked to every man and his dog but how many are real? In reality if all or at least most of those wanted him they would get him ahead of us if they wanted him and that’s not a poor likkle ol Sheffield United statement before I get accused of that

Fair point - think we got the jump on people in Jan and it’s proving harder to do that in the Summer. But certainly share your hope - don’t think he’s a completely unrealistic signing

 

[DeanLearner'sCat]

Have we ever even been credibly linked with him? I know our newest supposedly ITK poster said he was a target, but hasn't he been completely wrong so far?

Depends what your definition of credible is i guess

TBH was just asking due to various posts ha ha

Wilder said with Berge we had to get in him January as he heard big clubs were waiting til the summer to move for him. It is why we moved for him early rather than wait til the summer and get into a bidding war.

It is possible for us to swoop for Dennis as bigger clubs might be reluctant to take the gamble on him due to COVID.

If that's Dennis, then I'll bet the quality of his selfies are fantastic.

Have I missed something ? Apart from this forum, who has said we are after him ?

 

[SouthEssexBlade]

I thought a deal with Atalanta had been agreed? Did I dream that, or has it hit the buffers?

If Liverpool and Napoli were 'after' Berge, they'd have got him.

No we pulled the trigger earlier than those clubs.

 

[Tarqs]

No we pulled the trigger earlier than those clubs.

If they wanted him, they would have had him over us. Fact.

 

[SufcBilly]

If they wanted him, they would have had him over us. Fact.

they were waiting till this summer where he would have had 1 year left, we went in early to secure him.

 

[bongleblade]

don’t get too excited, I really cannot see this happening now, Burke and Brewster much more sensible options in this financial climate and we have already spent £30m+, can you really see us spending £50m+ this window after covid and berge? i can’t personally but i’d be chuffed if we do

if you think our spending is done then we wont be signing brewster if he's going for £20 Mill as suggested.

If Liverpool sell him for £20m he isn't the player he's cracked up to be.

Liverpool need quick cash reportedly

Liverpool need quick cash reportedly

If he's as good as they say he is surely they won't sell, he would be worth £60m plus after a season.

 

[dillis]

Loan with an obligation to buy could work. Can’t see them loaning him out with no obligation to buy.

if Liverpool are selling its because they need the cash now for the Tiago deal. Loan with obligation to buy just makes no sense.

They either want to loan him to develop him for themselves or sell him to get cash in.

 

[Blade58]

Who's that then?

I guess Ramsdale reported at £18.5m

I doubt there’s another £20m for one signing, but I have been known to be wrong before

 

[Blade58]

I’d stop taking everything people at the club said at face value. They’re all playing the game and playing it well.

I think on this occasion, I tend to go with what he's said

But we'll see
