We could look to exploit the loan market for a couple more bottles of pop

Yes you can, but you wouldn't make it public until the contract expires.

Agreed, Riis is better than Simms, but im not convinced hes the best option out there, what is in Riis's favour is the fact that hes a free transfer, so maybe we'd keep all the strikers we currently have and Riis will take Paterson's place, and Bassette goes out on loan. (Purely...

Well go check this out, then come back to me if you honestly believe Simms is better! As for your stats BS, we would never of signed Gyokeres based off his "stats" That's why we employ talent scouts!

Lies damn lies and statistics. We all know what Simms is like in the air. Fucking shite.

Riis is without doubt a better footballer, I'm sure he'd score plenty of goals given the service that he'd receive here. He's also better in the air than Simms or BTA and can play with his back to goal, which none of our strikers are capable of doing.

That's the best that FL has available to him at the moment. I'd be amazed if that's still the best option available at the start of next season.

Third choice behind who exactly??? Simms and BTA arnt getting a look in if Riis comes in.

Just wait till Mike Ashley kicks us out of the CBS, we will be grateful for the improved public transport links to Brums new stadium.

His release cause was lowered when he agreed to stay on till the end of the season. He's now expected to leave for £60m

Tbf you could say the same for MVE who got an excellent assist for Sunderlands winner in the play off first leg.

As was clearly stated earlier, he's a different type of striker to Wright, and could potentially fit our style of play better, and might even play as if he gives a fuck in our must win games.

I'm not scout either but Sargent from Norwich would be good, but he's likely to cost £15m+ which is doable if we sell Wright and use the Vik money.

I definitely think we'd get £12million for him. The issue we have is, hes not particularly good as a centre forward (one good game against Sunderland in the league doesn't convince me) but far better on the LW. But when fit, EMC is the obvious choice on the LW. Can we justify having a...

Or we could sell him, while his value is still high, and buy someone who does fit our tactics.

They should sign ASAP before Putin changes his mind. It's almost as if Russia is wanting the pre existing de-militarised zone agreement re instating. If they don't sign it, America will almost certainly turn off the supply of weapons, and Putin will be free to take even more of Ukraine...

Surely getting into the PL and landing a huge pay rise would be better than a couple of weeks (probably as an unused sub) at the world cup?

That's got to be one of the most ridiculous questions that gets asked every pre-season, Like any of us are paid talent scouts or something! I mean how many of us could honestly say we'd heard of Hamer or Gyokeres, or Sakamoto, MvE, or Torp etc.? Another dumb arse statement that pops up every...

Yea, some bird from PSG

I was a bit suprised we paid big money for Grimes who's 29. Certainly not Doug's usual type of signing but a good one nevertheless.
