Welp didn't think Eli's Simms would end up the "little guy" in the new strike partnership.

Mad transfer window this. Can't see this being €9m in installments, got to be heavily weighted to success related add ons surely?

Yep everyone spinning out about the fee has forgotten the initial fee quoted for Simms.

Worth noting that both of these players were unholy flops in English football - American strikers don’t have a great record over here.

My favourite story from the online research I've been doing...

Haji Wright booed by Antalyaspor fans following return to action - SBI Soccer

Haji Wright has been on the radar of several European clubs over the past season, and despite a new suitor reportedly entering the race for his services,

Ahh, so the club were keen to bring McNally back on a permanent deal then they made an offer which Burnley deemed to low I must have missed all of that.

Managed to watch a few clips of Haji now I'm back from work. Like the look of him. Can see the comparisons to Gyok as his dribbling style is very similar. I would imagine that he will do a lot of the donkey work and put it on a plate for Simms. Its nice to be getting some height in the squad. Is that Binks, Thomas, Fadz, Sheaf, Simms, Haji that are all over 6ft?

From his highlight clips he looks like the player we dreamt Bakayoko could turn into.

Bet he doesn't score with his arse from a sliding tackle though

We're becoming the new Luton Town, but with style.

I can't help but get the feeling we're either going to run away with the league, or be fighting for survival.

If we can get Wright in the building, it would be great to not have to rely on 1 player for so many of our goals.

I guess the hope is 2x 10-15 goal a season forwards. Seems reasonable.

Don’t know if he will sign but a deal like this illustrates not only we are going for it but theres on eye on the prem should we get, all these signings the oldest is mid twenties and all except Binks are ours and I fully expect if he is the business we will wrap his permanent signature up.

McNally hasn't been for sale and is under contract for a number of years. We knocked the door and got told to go away.

I started a thread a good while ago asking if we thought we could compete with Rangers for players. The general consensus was no as they were so much bigger than us. SISU were in charge at the time so probably accurate and we had not sold Vik for £20 million. How quickly times have changed if it is true we have outbid then for Wright. If this team can gel, O'Hare can return as good as before, and we can keep or replace Hamer with someone nearly as good surely we must have a chance of going one better than last season. Lot of ifs but lets dream.

With every new starter signing out bench gets stronger too

Must only be 2-3 positions left taken up by young kids on bench now once this goes through?
