And we were odds on favourites to his signature.

Now Villa & Sheff Utd appear to be out of the equation, then could we have a double swoop, McBurnie and Maupay !!!

So if Bloom said yes to signing Barnes you’d retract this recent post
‘’Hope not. Was bang average last time he was here and now is a red card waiting to happen.”

Mcburnie no thanks

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

Dean Smith signed him for Brentford, don’t be surprised if that alone is enough to make him opt for Villa.

yep, If Villa want him he will go there, they have spent heavily already though

Too similar in size and style to Andone IMO so I’d be surprised. We need a younger version of Murray IMO.

Still 2 or 3 inches to tall for a goalie in BHAO

As this window drags on, the more I'm thinking that both Maupay and McBurnie are the striker options which aren't high on our wanted list. If we really wanted them, wouldn't we have put a firm bid in by now? There's no benefit drawing it out for either club, as the figure isn't going to instantly change.

Is this chap the answer, though? A good season, maybe - but we're inevitably after a bit of experience, surely?
Bold Seagull
strong and stable with me, or...
He's been playing professional first team football since he was 16. He's only 22, but he has 6 years graft behind him scoring goals in Ligue 1, Ligue 2 and the championship. 28 goals last season in total in a side that finished midtable - impressive. He's also capable of dropping into midfield or out wide, which may suit Potter's flexible approach.
I'd be delighted to get him in, and keep a bit of gallic influence in the side.
Depends on the question. Two key ones for starters
Can he increase in value
Will he fit into our wage structure
The big one is , can he step up ?

Well as there is no chance of us signing a proven PL goal scorer anybody we sign will be a risk

This,
I am of the mind that stepping up surrounds you with better service (can’t compare last season based on style of play) and almost equal to the next level of the difficulty of scoring.
A lot of his success has come inside the box so we need the right players to service this, which on a change of style I think we have

Anyone anybody signs is a risk icy. Even proven PL goal scorers
