[Albion] Armando Broja

[WhingForPresident]

Very good player. Considering the sell on which would go to Caicedo's old team (20%?), getting at least one player in a swap deal makes a lot of sense. If they're definitely not moving on Colwill, £60m & Broja would be good business IMO.

Kelleher would be a great signing from Liverpool. Straight transfer or a loan and buy option. Assuming Bobby is offski !

After his match against Saints, I wouldn't go near Kelleher with a bargepole.

Absolutely not. Liverpool would have finished outside the top 7 if they’d had to rely on him for the season.

 

[Napper]

His stats look shit . Granted he is still young

Not for me

 

[World of Sport]

He’ll probably end up at someone like Burnley.

What's he done to deserve that the poor sod

 

[Pavilionaire]

I agree that the emergence of Enciso, the acquisition of Joao Pedro and the upturn in form of Undav means another striker like Broja is not a priority.

That was one game. He was excellent the previous season when he played more. Needs a run of games.

Chelsea striker we have been linked for the last 3 windows, albeit not strongly.

However he is now strongly linked as a player of interest in the Caceido deal.

Chelsea have now triggered the €35m release clause of Villarreal striker Nicolas Jackson with the deal thought to be completed in the coming days.

It is reported he is a potential Broja replacement, Broja is highly rated by Chelsea and signed a new 6 year deal last season, before sustaining a long term injury.

It is also worth noting that Jackson and Caceido have the same agent.

Thoughts?

Jackson is the player that failed a medical at Bmuff in January, tinpot Chelsea going after plucky players

This

Never thought I’d see the day!

Personally rather we picked up Maitland - Niles on a free. Can play full back and wing back both sides, pacey good skills just needs a good coach and a chance and we've an excellent coach

Palace Marque signing Shirley

Watching Graeme Smith play one game in
goal for Brighton was also enough to make an accurate judgement.

No better than we already have IMO. Been released by Arsenal for a reason.

I kind of agree if we are to be more successful we need a better quality of player for options. We had nothing on the bench against Utd in the semi and half killed Mitoma and co because we couldn’t change it enough.

Couldn’t score a sitter in final though useless

There’s better out there. AMN is not good enough. Maybe 2 seasons ago, but we’re fishing in bigger ponds these days.

My thoughts are that if Ferguson has another good season/even better season then next summer he’ll be gone.

Next summer will be big moves for strikers imo.

Real Madrid just lost Benzema, they’ve signed Bellingham this summer so next summer they may be in striker market.

Harry Kane’s contract expires next summer.

Man Utd literally don’t have a decent striker.

Mbappes PSG contract expires next summer.

Bayern won’t have a striker.

I think the club may be looking at Broja now to future proof the club for when Evan inevitably leaves, it will save us money in the long run not being in the striker market with 100m in our pockets.

Swap players do not devalue the sell-on. They get given an assigned value which is used in the sell-on calculations. They have thought of that dodge.

 

[SeagullinExile]

What is it with this mythical swap deal situation? I genuinely can’t recollect any such deal in English football

 

[Stumpy Tim]

Enciso isn't a striker, and Pedro will be one of the three behind the striker. Personally I think Broja (and Gallagher) make a lot of sense for us

Sanchez and Mikhytarian the only recent one I can recall. Apologies for the spelling on the latter !!

Are you judging him on just one game?
