Exactly. We are a team who miss too many chances. Why add to the problem?

These aren't the players you're looking for.

His attributes radar is identical to Welbeck' s and yes his goal per minutes is less, but his total goal and assists numbers combined do match up.

Ok some players haven’t worked out (we know who they are) and we haven’t uncovered the next Kane or Vardy (yet) and but Hemed, Maupay , Baldock, Welbeck and Murray are some of the best signings the club has ever made. In its history . Given the goals they’ve scored, their contributions to promotion and our success as a PL club. And further back Ulloa and Barnes and Murray v 1 weren’t too bad either.
“Close to unparalleled “ is a bit OTT for even NSC .
Didn't Fiorentina just go through to the next round in Europe and that was going to be the go/no go for this deal?
Only Muzza and Maupay in the prem era are good enough IMHO
To clarify, I mean in terms of goals scored

It seems that there is a lot of competition for his signature so those who give him the thumbs down might be able to rest easy.

And no one has actually noticed the flair of his squad number being 99

Of those you quote, only Murray was what you could call prolific. The others are great players (I’m a particular fanboy for Baldock whose role in our promotion season is underrated), but none are prolific. We’ve had a few that got away (Nunez, Toney) so I think even the club team would say they’d like to find the ‘special’ one.

Agreed it’s far more nuanced (with even some successes ) than Albion “are close to unparalleled in having strikers who don’t score”.
And yes it depends on the benchmark (“prolific” ? “great players” ? "kept us up", "XG") etc
All our strikers have scored ! Just not as much as we would have liked. (like most other clubs and their strikers)

Even then people would moan. Imagine we signed Ronaldo - "All he does is score, his allround game isn't suited to modern football"
suspected maybe some truth in it , a striker that looks pretty poor so makes sense

Not much info. Just that a loan to buy is possible but Empoli are also interested.
Not only Empoli, Brighton also pushes for Christian Kouamé, an Ivorian striker of Fiorentina who started the season in Serie A very well, playing as a protagonist especially in the debut match against Cremonese at the Franchi.
Graham Potter's team, which has started the Premier season at its best, could offer Fiorentina a ransom loan conditional on the overall number of appearances of the player during the season.
On Kouamé there is also Brighton, therefore, in addition to Empoli, which talked about it with Fiorentina as part of the negotiation that also involves Zurkowski and Bajrami, with the latter who is getting closer and closer to dressing purple.
