[Albion] The Relegation Pick N Mix: Players To Sign

[Hugo Rune]

Anyone else worth a look?

No.9 Ashley Barnes*






* No, I’m not joking!

 

[B-right-on]

Ben Foster. He’s old. If he’s happy to be number 2 behind Sanchez I think his experience will help push Sanchez on. Probably too expensive. Short term move. Won’t like being a number 2, not inspired.

No. Was giving it large at the start of the season saying that we will be relegated in a podcast. Was highly critical.

Made me happy when he got relegated. I'd happily send him a middle finger and a copy of his Brighton prediction if I knew how to. He can stay in the Championship, again.

 

[Eric the meek]

I'm not sure any of the relegated players would be good enough to challenge for a starting spot.

Don't forget we've already signed Undav and Mitoma who are both returning next season. We should have a fit Sarmiento as well.

We seem to able to turn over good sides now - Arsenal, Spurs, Wolves, Man Utd, West Ham just recently. One of them would have been a fluke, but all five? Something is happening.
I've always understood we've been a work in progress, but we do seem to have 'clicked' of late. The goals are now coming from all over the pitch.

Personally, I absolutely can't wait for next season.

 

[A1X]

Pukki?

 

[clapham_gull]

Welbeck was a free transfer, released by Watford when we signed him ?

 

[Thompson720]

Cornet has that special quality about him, Dennis potentially? As a guess, I don't honestly think we will go in for any though!

 

[Perkino]

The main consideration will be if we can grab a bargain. Someone like Veltman or Lallana for virtually nothing.

 

[Pavilionaire]

I could see Tarkowski and Sarr both at Newcastle next season. Emanuel Dennis is also a decent striker, slightly better than Cornet but I think we can get better value. I don't see anyone else from the bottom 3 making our matchday squad stronger.

 

[schmunk]

Have we ever singed a relegated player, in our EPL era?

Our first ever 'EPL era' signing - Pascal Gross!

 

[OzMike]

What about that Barnes fellow.

 

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

I wouldn't say no to Cornet. But that might be because he's the only player with a spark of ability in a very workmanlike team. He might not actually fit into our style.

 

[HastingsSeagull]

Max Aarons though not for the price they’ll ask.

Out of the rest Weghorst about it for me.

 

[Swansman]

Couple of players in each team would improve the squad but IMO no one worth the chase really... signing relegated PL players is usually more expensive than looking elsewhere for players of a similar level.

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Max Aarons though not for the price they’ll ask.

Out of the rest Weghorst about it for me.

He only has a year left on his contract

 

[HastingsSeagull]

We could do far worse then with signings.

If as a back-up or one of three for two positions, he’d surely go to someone either bigger or richer. But if we lost Lamptey or wanted someone who won’t get injured as much he’d be a good player who Potter would play all over the field. Lamptey seems to be the player who’s missed the most time and who’s spot has been the most ‘makeshift’.

March etc. probably the reason we don’t need him more a luxury, but I prefer Veltman playing in a back three so wouldn’t count him for wing back unit myself except in an emergency. So as close to a ‘need’ as any position probably.

 

[Taybha]

Watford have a couple of good players,really like Pedro,Trouble is now the EPL have decided there's nothing fishy about Newcastles ownership they will hoover up all the could be brilliant players for shits and giggles.

 

[WATFORD zero]

Our first ever 'EPL era' signing - Pascal Gross!

I'm stunned it took that long for someone to mention the Raumdeuter

Incidentally, was anyone keeping count yesterday ? I thought I saw 2 fulls and a half

 

[Rogero]

Pope and McNeil both decent not many others spring to mind

Agreed , they are Burnley’s best players.

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

I think you are right, no repeat doubles which was a shame.

To this day surely opposition coaches what us before a game and tell their players, this is what he will do so plan for it

 

[The Fits]

Cornet. Cucu Hernandez is a very Brighton signing. McNeil obviously.
But this summer we should stick to our guns. Don’t forget we almost added Luis Diaz and Darwin Nunez to this squad at points over the last couple of seasons- it’s beyond the imaginable where we would’ve finished with those two in our squad.
The breakout player id be looking to sign as an absolute priority is Bassey at Rangers. The guy has immense potential and is left footed.
