Without Mbappe it’s definitely now more possible.PSG his only option IMO
Say what????I want Toney , think he is class . Hopefully Ange could handle the dickhead persona ( if true?)
Still saying the same thing as you were when we bought Brian Gil.Another day another self-own from you.
Shhhhh
They might be waiting to bring Harry Kane back.If they wanted a cheaper punt on a striker they are letting Guirassy go Dortmund and Zirkzee go Utd for a 40m release clause.
Either they want a marquee #9 or they are planning for a different type of Forward imo
Spot on. Striker is the most essential position for us to buy this summer bar none. Son can't play with his back to goal and Richy can't stay fit (and isn't good enough in any case).Getting the right winger is imperative but if we don’t get a striker that can control the ball with his back to play and bring others into the game we will always come up short. Our front three give it away more than they keep it and we can’t continue playing this way.
You can't coach pace, but you can improve a players technical skills. Johnson will go well this season.Difference is Johnson is 22. And do people really see him improving from this level? He's a pace merchant with limited technical ability.
Couldn't disagree more. How many players have you seen who couldn't control a football at 23 suddenly learn how to later on?You can't coach pace, but you can improve a players technical skills. Johnson will go well this season.
I'm a big Johnson fan and think he will do well this season, but Sonny is still a few levels above him. Sonny's numbers are great every year. He is a great winger and could score 20+ goals a season if he plays as striker, also nobody presses as well as Sonny. Hopefully Johnson can learn things from Sonny while we still have him.13 goals and 13 assists at 22 in the PL. Not many people his age with that output. Maybe Saka?
Does Son add much more than he does?
Toney is a very good player.Openda and Sesko dropping STINKERS today but Toney got an assist yesterday and played a key role in England winning but we're all ageist and prefer shiny new foreign toys from Temu I guess
I hardly think his skill level is that bad. He's a good player and will improve this season.Couldn't disagree more. How many players have you seen who couldn't control a football at 23 suddenly learn how to later on?
Toney is a very good player.
People here have convinced themselves otherwise cos he plays for little old Brentford, doesn't bag 30 a season, and can be a bit of a knob in interviews. Big deal.
He's always a handful for defenders, can hold up anything chucked in his general vicinity, great first touch, can play with his back to goal, his link up play is top drawer, and he brings other players into the game. Plus he's cold as ice in the box.
We could do a LOT worse than him this summer, especially as you say by blowing 60-80m on one of these flavour of the month types on the continent like Sesko who could be very hit or miss in the Prem.
I'd wait til Brentford drop their price at the end of the window and then offer them 30-40. He would ball in a Spurs shirt I guarantee it.
