I think if we are keeping rich go for zirkzee who could be our isak type
Would they turn down a 40 mill bid who knows I like the look of him tho very unpredictable
Unless someone else signs him first and then we'd be freed from Desire.
Zirkzee is a wonderful player to watch and has a 40m clause.
Only questions I have are about how prolific he can be and how hard he wants to work without the ball. If they crunch the data and Ange watched the film to settle on Zirkzee I’d definitely not hate it
This 'journalist' is a known and exposed fraud, wouldn't read into anything he says either way.
Think PSG are eying him to
I know it’s all likely bollocks, but it’s irritating that we’re only being linked with youngsters.
We’re not fucking Brighton and we have to buy established players too.
Do you remember when we were linked pre Napoli and people were fuming, emptying their bowels with Levy soup and saying we always take the cheap option. The Danny Rose Google jokes were hilarious!
You're right, but there's no sense in getting irritated by it, when we know that the VAST majority of these links are pure click bait.
I fully expect that we are looking at established players as well, but the club is keeping its cards VERY close to its chest on them.
Is it? I didn’t know he was one of those fraud accounts
I do.
Thing is, the club had chopped and changed leadership, mangers etc it’s not shocking that fans didn’t trust the scouting. He was one of the early Paratici names.
Paratici could offer us a 3 legged Labrador now and most of us would trust his scouting network.
I've wondered this about Sarr. He has all the attributes for a #6. Great defensively and on the ball. Just needs a bit more positional discipline, maybe that'll come with age. Would solve a huge problem for us if he could play there.
I don’t actually think people were.
He looked incredibly exciting but he was such an unknown prospect, no one had a clue. For that reason, no one ever really criticised ENIC for letting him go.
Every team in world football would have bought him.
Napoli themselves described it ‘as like winning the lottery’.
Osimhen was pretty shite this season, why is he much better than Richarlison?
He has the attributes to be elite there.
Quietly one of our best passers as well. At least over mixed distances.
Yep, just makes things up.
Fair enough. That’s a lot of these journalists tbf
Because one poor season (in which he still got 18 g/a in the league) doesn't discount a 30 g/a season in which he was one of the best strikers in Europe and absolutely terrifying teams. Richarlison has never even got close to that peak.
Osimhen, if available tomorrow, would be wanted by most of Europe. Richarlison, who has almost no stand-out attributes, would not. That says it all about how they're rated by top European teams. Osimhen is far from perfect but he is a level above Richarlison.
