[Football] Danny welbeck

[Brian Fantana]

He’s a poor man’s Florin Andone.

 

[Stat Brother]

Oh so this isn't a BG thread?

 

[bluenitsuj]

I like the in depth reasoning mate

No problem.

 

[Simster]

Won't be one for us. Vast wages, injury-prone, reputation for absolute clangers as well as some decent goals.

The new Christian Benteke, one might say. Palace are that desperate for strikers, they'll probably offer him the necessary £130k/wk.

All of this. No thanks.

 

[Hampster Gull]

Where’s the Pole?

Yes

 

[Nixonator]

Nope

 

[Sheebo]

He was heavily linked with a move to palace in Jan recently then broke his ankle....

 

[Southern Scouse]

No way.

 

[brightn'ove]

And there endeth the interest.

High wages, injury prone, patchy scoring record?

Parrish will be on the phone in no time.

 

[Lurchy]

If Palace don't make a move for him than West Ham certainly will.

 

[GoingUp]

I don't think he was ever injured at Man United, seemed to of got the Arsenal injury curse when he went there. Still I think he is on £115k at Arsenal and I cant see him willing to take a big cut in wages now as he has probably got one last good move in him.

 

[crodonilson]

'Welbs' would be an incredible signing, one that shows we really mean business and if we could get a player of his calibre in I think it makes it easier to get other players of similar quality, not to mention the shirt sales revenue.

I see him as a younger, slightly higher quality, Marcus Bent. All power and pace and unplayable on his day.

 

[rippleman]

Best days behind him. Greedy wage demands. Sicknote.

No ta.

 

[Weststander]

Out of contract he’ll hold all the aces, demanding pay of say £150,000 per week. The Albion will have no interest in that sort of arrangement, he’ll head off to West Ham, Bmuff, Wolves, Fulham or CP [as long as they’re playing PL next season].

I’m not bothered.

 

[Wardy's twin]

I think he would be a big risk but assuming he is actually free (no agent/personal sign on fees etc) then 100k a week over 3 years is £15 million which is about what we paid for Locadia without wages.

The risk is probably less his health & game time (again look at how many games Locadia hasn't played in 10 months) but whether he would upset the current 'togetherness'. Someone on the inside would need to suss him out and why he would want to come here.

 

[Blues Rock DJ]

I think he’s been injury free for a while??

he's recovering from a broken ankle ?

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

I think he would be a big risk but assuming he is actually free (no agent/personal sign on fees etc) then 100k a week over 3 years is £15 million which is about what we paid for Locadia without wages.

The risk is probably less his health & game time (again look at how many games Locadia hasn't played in 10 months) but whether he would upset the current 'togetherness'. Someone on the inside would need to suss him out and why he would want to come here.

The problem is we have about 5 players who all have 'top earner' in their contract, so it won't just be starman on top wack. It will be massive pay rises all round.

Anyway, as others have said, he's made of cornflakes.

 

[RM-Taylor]

We will probably have to spend 10 years in the premiership before we have a £100k a week player

I imagine that will happen next season

 

[Wozza]

No.

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

It has West Ham all over it.

HmHin and Wilshire linking up on the injury list again
