I’d have Carroll just on the basis that if we’ve got him we can’t play against him and make him look like peak Sheringham.Leaving the Bosnia/Serbia thing to one side, Besic is 29 in September, has a low mileage in his legs as a footballer and is exactly what we need in our midfield, as a shielder/destroyer. Mobility, tenacity, a bit of devilment and experience of the club. He is also happy living in the north of England. He'll more than likely end up at another championship club and be a success.
Van Ginkel in an enigma. 29 in December and has a low mileage in his legs as a footballer. There is a talented player in there. Great engine, scores goals and has a work ethic. In 17/18 he scored 14 in 28 in the dutch top division.
Bettinelli just turned 29, and was in the England squad in 2018. Spent the season on loan at Boro last season & would make an excellent, proper & competent no. 2 at BDTBL next. Rumoured to be in contract talks with Fulham.
Felix Nmecha, was meant to be the next big thing at city and was flirting with cup game squad. Was out for nearly a year with injury and never really found his stride again. Still only 20, and has plenty of up side.
Andy Carroll, i would have him on a short term/pay as you play deal in the blink of an eye. The type of forward that we are missing & a real threat off the bench. If a championship level club could keep him fit for a season, he'd repay them 10 fold, even if it were limited to last 20 mins off the bench. He could be our new Wayne Allison.
The Dutch bloke....... didn’t Higdon score goals in the Netherlands?!
Would have Besic if he’d play for £10k a week (doubtful).
