Because he’s 23 and still has plenty to learn.

Thanks for your input

And you call me bonkers

If I was trying to tell the club what to do I'd email them or rock up at Ryton, not post on a forum. It's a discussion about a potential signing and I'm bored as fuck at work. It really isn't that deep lol

Exactly. And I just can't see them selling for that little.

Thomas Asante isn't having a lean "spell" 11 goals is his best ever league return. He only managed double figures once in 4 seasons of League Two football. Doesn't matter who he was rested for though does it? The point is of those 25 games many were cameo appearances of 20 mins or less, so...

Yes, if we sign him for less than 2m it's a good signing.

It’s obviously not him then

What's yours? BTA has never set foot in the prem and you've cherry picked stats from Simms' worst run of form?

What? Simms was rested plenty, very rarely started more than 2 games in a row first half of the season. He's up to speed and firing now and we have Wright who can play centrally too. I mean if Saddle is right and he won't cost more than 2m then he'd be a good signing. I just don't see WBA...

Even if he does I don't see them selling to us for less than 2m? We want 500k for Godden who's much older and shitter

Because he's been first choice striker for a top 6 club. Why would they sell him to us for <£2m?

Really? I have trouble believing West Brom would sell what has been their first choice striker to a promotion rival for less than £2m. Yeah Godden is done for us, that's not a high bar. He looked finished in all his appearances towards the end of the season.

Anything over 3m

He scored 11 goals for a top 6 team as their main striker, not a great return. I agree, he'd be a decent squad player, but not at that price and I'm sure we can find better out there

He's scored 18 in 2 seasons, not impressive at all. Spending millions on a bang average championship player would be a mistake. People seem to forget where we were a few seasons ago, £2-3m would have been our biggest signing in 20 years and now we're happy to blow that on this guy? He's...

How much is he improving us though? 11 goals for a pretty good West Brom isn't exactly tearing up trees and it's not like he'll be coming on the cheap. If we want to splash the cash I think we can do better.

How much is he going to cost though? If I was WBA I'd be asking for 5m. That would be a massive waste of money for us to spend on a second choice striker.
