[Albion] Darwin Núñez

[Cowfold Seagull]

He’s scoring in a farmers league

I could get 18 in 22 drinking cote de Provence and smoking 20 Marlboro red every night in that tinpot league

In fact , I would have 22 in 18 by now

.. maybe. Or the player didnt want to. Or it was a lot more than £30m. Or whatever. We dont know.

Possible Parallels with Calleri we chase goes somewhere else ends up at West Ham then flops!

Lowballed by a couple of mill, if reports of what they wanted and what we offered were true. looks very short sighted now.

If there is a chance I would like to think we would be in the race for his signature! I'd be gutted if he ends up going there

There’s no way we compete with their wage structure.

USG needs a backup striker

Or the rumoured £44m fee

Or the rumoured £44m fee

He was worth the 20 odd million first time when at Almeria, he was worth the 30 odd we were rumoured last time and he is worth 44m now.

Don’t doubt any of that

But we aren’t the team who pay that kind of ££££££

Shame he chose Benfica the first time really.

 

[Weststander]

With Bissouma, Lamptey and Webster off tomorrow for a collective £175m, we might be able to meet some of Nunez’s wage demands.

Not throwing the transfer towel in, just yet.

 

[Springal]

If West Ham hadn’t taken that investment maybe we’d have a chance. They only have 1 player on over £100k a week , and they only signed him in the summer !

I agree, there's no chance we'd pay that with our model, and it is a tad frustrating also tbh as some other f***er we compete with will pay it.

Wouldnt choose anyone over Bloom to run our club and his moneyball system has generally served us well with the odd spectacular exception fail like Locadia, but you just cannot win games without proper goal scorers and I really wish we would suspend this model with CF.

Maybe one of Zeqiri, Sarmiento, Undav etc will come good, but maybe none of them will.

In this one position alone, I still think that getting the one better player is better than a handful of cheaper punts.
Full kudos to the recruitment team for identifying him, he is the real deal imho and 1 Nunez even at 44m today is still better than 4 or 5 lesser CF punts imho, but as I dont write the cheques, I get thats not our market.

Go all in for Leon Best.
