Better all round player
Solanke is fine don’t get me wrong but basically all of him, Neto, and Eze will cost silly money. Price of doing business with PL clubs especially for English players. There’s no chance we can fork over money for all 3 of them.
Surely someone from the continent is available that’s a little more reasonably priced.

Balance before performance.
Says it all. Neither are good enough for a club that wants to be taken seriously.
Solanke easily. Would be a great fit for how we play
Cheapus Bargainus est Wheelus Dealus
Depends what they both want in wages.
Say Toney is 45m and wants a 5-year deal at 175k a week, that’s 90m all in.
Say Solanke is 60m and he’s so desperate to play in Europe and make the England squad he’ll take 115k. Puts the deal at £89.9m…
Yes but £11 is not a lot and you may recoup some money. Always thought he was good at Watford. I’m sure he would have made a good sub option.
What is his recent record? Ie for Bournemouth bet that looks a lot better
Both overpriced
We don’t need Ramsey we need eze type or eze himself. Why we wasting time on someone who doesn’t get into our starting 11. I’d rather keep Gio.
Richy can’t even get himsell Fit for a pre season stroll - anything over 4M is a good fee to get that freak off the payroll
Honestly a worse investment than that div Gilberto - what is the noun for a collection of shit, overpaid footballers? Levy’d
Sure but that will cost, conservatively, something like £150m. Likely even more with add-ons.
Each of those PL clubs will demand huge money, the rumours for Eze and Neto already in the 60m range.
No chance Bournemouth lets their English 20-goal-a season striker go for cheap.
This is what I mean when I say Redknappian transfer window. Everyone knows that these players are good for the PL, they're Prem-proven household names from mid table clubs. Random bloke down the pub could've suggested all 3. Problem is they're all under contract and PL clubs ask for silly money for Prem-proven talent..
What are we paying Lange for exactly? This isn't unearthing a hidden gem, it's the 3 most obvious attackers in the entire league lol. Levy will not be pleased. He does not like paying over the odds and above all else he hates losing a negotiation.
What are we gonna do though? Could sign a 21-year-old from the Jupiter League and hope they step up, but you’re introducing a tonne more variables.
They have good experienced manager as well. Who you’d have to say maybe has more top level experience than Ange. Same could be said about glassner who is putting g a good squad without spending shit loads.
Can we not do minutes please when doing goals and appearances. Coming off the bench to play 5 minutes here and there for Liverpool is abit misleading.
Solanke:
20,876 minutes of competitive men's football
Equivalent to 232 games played.
118 goals/assists combined
Goal or assist every 1.9 games or so.
Not bad. Not great.
