[Albion] Danny Welbeck, should we? [18/10: we did - one year deal] - *** NEW ONE YEAR DEAL ***

[One Love]

Fantastic

 

[Luke93]

Quality player. Full England international for many years. Phenomenal for a free fee (plus wages).

 

[Rinkmaster]

Front three looking like they will give any side big problems now. Best lineup trossard, maupay and welbeck. Magic

lots of comments on our injury prone signings, but our medical staff seem to be among the best there is- they kept Bridge going for a year, Zamorra, Vicente, as well. Perhaps its one of our big selling points-a medical facility able to resurrect the lame!- also dont forget the spots the team have made with potential signings and players-Goldsons heart for example, the two who failed medicals a couple years ago. Pretty sure we wont sign anyone who is a walking sicknote .

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

very pleased to see. might not score a bag of goals but really good forward player.

At the very least, the big bustling bloke up front might distract at least SOME not-all-that-bright defenders from the dangers posed by our little blokes up front. Very nice addition to the mix IMHO

 

[DJ NOBO]

We're very much in post-window territory here.

I believe Daniel Sturridge is still available - maybe we should double up...

If it had to be one , I’d take Welbeck over Sturridge

 

[KeithDublin]

That's very good news to wake up to

 

[peterward]

All I can say is no one should moan about this.

Injury prone maybe, but an incredible about of experience and a great option to have off the bench in games. Lets hope we can get 15-20 appearances out of him!

And so was Danny Ings until he wasnt anymore........

This is a truly fantastic piece of business, absolutely buzzing.

Welcome Danny Welbeck.(cant believe I am saying that!)

UTA - now lets smash them Palace w*nkers

Yes, a signing of biblical proportions. It is he allowed to play on the Sabbath?

 

[Jolly Red Giant]

Good signing - if he can stay healthy

 

[Not Andy Naylor]

If it had to be one , I’d take Welbeck over Sturridge

Probably better to have a player with an injury history than an attitude problem.

100%

 

[British Bulldog]

It's like the final piece of the jigsaw really, Don't know about other fans but I think we have finished our transfer window with a stronger squad than we started it?

 

[Uh_huh_him]

Surprised by this.


But for a single season, it seems like a sensible bit of business

Sturridge very much has both

I think Lallana is a better singIng than wellbeck

 

[Cheshire Cat]

Can somebody remind me why Watford released him? Injuries, wages, relegation, over the hill, attitude, or what?

Wages I’d assume.

Why surprised dude?, just curious.

Didnt think we could or that he would come? or because of ability/sickness record?

 

[Biscuit Barrel]

I'm happy with this signing.
