Agree, but I wouldn't want Denayer either. Anderson looked really ponderous whenever I saw him in Ligue 1 for Lyon, I watched Lyon loads and never once thought "like him". But then there's much less long ball shite in Ligue 1.
I thought Denayer looked really good last season for Belgium and Lyon. His performances to get Lyon to the CL semi were really good.

I think he's decent on the ball, deceptively quick and strong. Reads the game pretty well. Actually reminds me of a better CCV.

Why don't you like him?

I don’t dislike him per se, he puts it all on the line and does bits of everything ok, I just think he’s got limitations in all areas, I don’t think he’s the most mobile on the spin, he’s not great when pressed, his use of the ball is ordinary.

I don’t hate him but think there’s better out there.
 
Impressive stats this season 18 goals 16 apps in Austria.
Contract to 2024.
Described as a CF who can play LW and RW.
tmkt say worth £18m
Yeah and the report says he's gonna cost atleast 20 million euros, which is £17 million. I reckon due to high demand the price will be pushed up from 17 to £20 million.

Given Vinicius is already 25 and isn't even starting in Europa League, he's clearly not good enough despite his goals in very easy matches. Go for Daka instead.
 
Every time I have seen Sam Johnstone at WBA he looks a class above the dross around him. Not sure if it is just because they are so poor that anyone reasonable appears better but he looks to me to be a good keeper
It's always worth scouting goalkeepers at teams lower down the table. They may end up shipping more goals. But you get to see them work more and develop a clearer picture of them.

Johnstone could definitely take a step up in his career. He's a good goalkeeper.

Our best buys have come from lower teams in England and Wales.
Haven't bought from Scotland or Ireland in many a long year.
 
We should be looking at Daryl Dike, currently at Barnsley.

He would be an impressive young striker to deputize Kane. I think he's an immediate upgrade on Vinicius and at a younger age.
 
Big fan of Sabitzer. Seen him a number of times now. Has a good engine, decent defensively, can spray the ball out of midfield effectively, isn’t out long with injury and also has a goal threat. Definite upgrade on Winks/Sissoko and would challenge Lo Celso in my opinion. Worth $40m and try and get something for Sissoko. Would definitely have him and good player to have in the squad

Would Leipzig accept a swap with Dele? Otherwise I'm worried we can't afford him after Ali Gold reported that our acquisitions will be mostly funded from player sales this summer.

Different kind of player to GLC.

We definitely need a better long range passer in midfield.

Not keen on his age though. Think we should be buying younger to get better value from our limited budget
