[Albion] So we all know there's a striker incoming - Who ?

[Pavilionaire]

We don't need another out and out left winger.

What a mouthful. I'm please Tina Turner went with 'hero' in the end...

 

[Mancgull]

I'm remaining optimistic and will say that we won't settle for Brewster or Dia (please ) but will instead go LARGE on a mysterious foreign import that none of us have ever heard of, who'll be the best thing since sliced bread

I think Brewster would be a great addition. Apparently six Premier League teams have enquired about him, which suggests he could prosper with us, albeit on loan. I agree re Dia, that would be a disappointment, but I think he'll be our backup.

 

[Gabbafella]

The same Gotze that's on £120K a week at Dortmund?

That's the one

 

[vagabond]

So this is my theory, for what it's worth. The 'no hurry' remark suggests to me that we think we are in with a chance of landing Brewster on a season long loan if Liverpool do loan him out, which I think will happen (so long as they don't sell Origi'.).
I get the feel that we are probably top of the list for Liverpool as they'd know that we are short of strikers and so Brewster would get game time, plus they have respect for Potter.
We'd obviously have to have a backup and I think we would be strongly placed to land Dia if the Brewster loan doesn't come off.
I think we'd have liked to have got Nunez but we probably always realised it was a long shot.
We must have some indication from Liverpool as to when they make their mind up on Brewster and I expect it'll be another week or two. Thus the 'no hurry' remark from AN.
Could be complete b@llocks of course.

Personally speaking I’m really against loaning young players . Would sooner develop our own. Curious why others would feel different? Can understand it if you’re newly promoted or don’t have an exciting production line of talent...

The ‘no hurry’ statement could also of course refer to the fact that the window doesn’t close for a while yet. So we may expect to do business towards the deadline.

Same question as I posed on the Murray thread. Anyone know if Gyokeres is ready yet?

I was hoping we'd see him vs. WBA but he's on international duty with Sweden.

 

[West Upper Seagull]

Normally I’d agree, but even by our standards we’re bloody short of strikers now.

Maupay and Connolly.

Don’t forget we still have Andone !

 

[West Upper Seagull]

Nuñez, Origi, Batshuayi, Watkins or Edouard, we're certainly clearing funds for someone this summer.

I’d be happy if we got Batshuayi, I think he could do a good job for us if he got regular game time and knows the demands of the Premier League whereas Nunez, Watkins and Edouard would be unknowns at this level.

 

[super-seagulls]

Woods, brewster

If that’s our former Kiwi striker it’s Wood.

I think Brewster would be a great addition. Apparently six Premier League teams have enquired about him, which suggests he could prosper with us, albeit on loan. I agree re Dia, that would be a disappointment, but I think he'll be our backup.

Serious question to you both, if I may?
Have you seen anything of Brewster to suggest he is actually good?
Or is it that he is in Liverpool’s books? I’m not saying he is no good or wouldn’t do a job for us because I don’t know, I am just curious?

[MENTION=457]sheebo[/MENTION] and [MENTION=12291]Bradders[/MENTION] really need to pull their sauces out now it's come to the CRUNCH

My SAUCE at LARNSING disguised as a Mop & bucket has inadvertently been locked in the cleaning cupboard for the last 17 days as BARBER has lost the key !

All I can report is that I saw MUZZA driving away dressed as a WASP !

Make of that what you will

Given Potter liked playing with a tall person up front whilst at Swansea, I’m going to take a wild guess and suggest the 6ft 6 Wout Weghorst from Wolfsburg. He had a really good season and there were mumblings at the start of the window that he may leave them and heard to a English club.

Karlan Grant at Huddersfield would be another option and would fit the versatility that Potter likes.

I like Weghorst but he is at Wolfsburg, meaning he would be very expensive plus he is a bit too much of the "immovable object" type of player, not very dynamic unlike i.e. McBurnie. Similar to the other Dutch tower, Bas Dost. Sure would be a good pinchhitter (as they call the tall supersub in Holland) but probably too expensive not to be a starter.

Karlan Grant would be interesting but seems to be pretty quiet around him.

100% agree. Loaning in such a key position makes no sense with the club’s plans and development model. I’d be very surprised if this was the strategy.

Arturo Scargillio

We don't need another out and out left winger.

Can play as a striker too.

Although he is a bit old now, he works well with miners so could do a job helping bring the youth through...

 

[Blue Valkyrie]

Must be a strong candidate for 4th choice striker but we don't know Potter's assessment of that.

I’m going with the obvious favourite. Which is Mr Nobody,.

Hope not, he offers us nothing we haven’t already got
