I remember us playing against Tranmere Rovers at the Goldstone in the old 2nd division (championship), i think it was the season after losing to Notts County in the play off final, iirc Tranmere had just been promoted to the 2nd tier for the first time in their history. We went into the game...
I said on one of the other threads, Jahanbaksh played in a front 3 in Holland, so why bring him here and try and shoehorn him into different positions? We played him up front in the game against Chelsea the other week, whilst leaving Gyokeres on the bench, at present i would say he is our 3rd...
I think Danny Ings has always been capable of what he achieved last season, he has been unfortunate with injuries, but also with opportunities at Liverpool, if he stays fit, i wouldn't bet against him having a similar season again.
Another player at Liverpool who i think is very capable of 15+...
Sounds like Accrington might....MUST have some strikers worth signing, unless of course none of these Leeds kids have spent 5 minutes with Bielsa yet, in which case they'll all still be gash.
Similar reactions at the start of the Adam Lallana thread, i wonder what happened to him.
Fwiw, my opinion is that i would prefer someone younger but he is undoubtedly better than what we have, so wouldn't object. Would prefer a loan with option to buy if both the Albion and Rose are happy to...
Add Maupay in and there isn't a defence in the league that would want to face us, well, not for the first 5 minutes anyway, after that they would only have to worry about the other two while we manfully try and hang on with 10 men.
Seems a bit too specific to me, why not just put up the whole interview? You could be right of course but i would imagine the clubs media department would be informed ahead of the rest of us so they can prepare for the announcement.
Interesting that the club have today posted this section from Billy Reids interview on Instagram, incoming?

Pukki, no thanks. Sebastian Andersson AND Jesper Karlsson for less combined, yes please. Under £10m for both!
Dont get me wrong i would prefer a top quality striker like Dembele like everyone else, but if we are talking Pukki levels i'd rather go for these two Swedes.
I'm sure if we could get someone in this week we would, but the transfer market is still slow so far and we may be needing another club to sign a replacement before letting a striker join us.
The fact we didn't take the same approach with Muzza is probably out of respect for Glenn himself and...
Maybe you missed the bit where i said we absolutely DO need another striker, i am definitely not advocating that at all, i'm just saying if we have to get by until October we can and i'd rather that than a panic buy and get it wrong as we did with Locadia and probably would have with Vincent...
Maybe he will, maybe he wont, but he did play up front against Chelsea last week which suggests Potter is at least considering it, he didn't bring on Gyokeres though.
I wish i had your confidence in a done deal, i'd be pleasantly surprised personally.
Not including untried youngsters, we currently have two very promising strikers who now have a year at this level behind them, another guy who won the golden boot in Holland and a Belgian international who can play up front if needed. We absolutely do need another striker imho, but it's not as...
Yeah i had heard somewhere he was a midfielder, probably on here, i would have said possibly from your good self as you seem to know far more about the yougsters than anyone else on here :thumbsup: But as you say you weren't certain, possibly not.
I only guessed at it being Weir as it was the...
I like the look of this fella too, i get what you are saying about the standard but you can see he's way above that standard.
Both for under £10m would be a steal imho.
If that's right then get him signed up. That's not even a gamble, we spent over 3 times that on Locadia ffs. The step up from the Bundesliga to the Prem is probably less than any other European league, he will get better service than at Union i would imagine and he did well enough for them.
I'm not sure who many of their subs were tbh. His highlights on youtube were impressive, theres also a video there of his debut for Chelsea against Grimsby in the cup, looked ok, a lot of passing sideways to the centre back but nothing special, maybe being his debut though he was told to keep it...
