Linked with the Blues. Obviously hope that doesn’t happen, but set me thinking just how good someone like that would be for us.

Clearly not our model being 31 in September, and would be ridiculous wages, but imo worth breaking the structure for. £100k per week is £10m over two years, but he’s a beast in the Championship and with how we set up, he’d get so many chances. I genuinely believe that if we do have funds to spend, then he would give us a chance of firing into the automatics.

Get it done Doug!

He's also being linked with Napoli...I can't see him ending at Bin City FC.

No idea, seen it in a few places but stories do get rehashed from socials so possibly.

Good footballer but the sulkiest of sulky trousers in the entire world of football. A David Speedie dialled up to 11. Every. Single. Day. And twice on match days.


If people think Bassette or Kitching have personality traits that haven’t always fitted in with the higher ups at the club then they would see a whole new world w Mitrovic.

Agree although i think more inclined to put up with it if they deliver. In Bassette's case I think hd believes he's already made it without the numbers to back it up.

A striker like him is genuinely the difference between promotion and just missing out.

Never in a million years are the club paying £100k per week on a player in the championship, nor would I want them to. He's apparently earning £21m per annum in Saudi.

Got a year on his contract so there would be a decent fee to pay as well.

On balance I think I would be happy with Brum taking on this liability rather than us.

I've not suggested he is - its in the title! Just saying how someone like this could be the difference. A quality loan also would and where I think we should direct any budget despite 5 on Saturday.

Threads like these show how clueless some of you are

May as well get Ronaldo in while Doug’s out in Saudi.

What’s the point of suggesting a player we’d never be able to sign in a million years?

He’s not signing for them either. But that wouldn’t make it a realistic target for us if he was, they are able to pay much higher wages than us.

It's quite clear (if you're not trying to be a bellend). I'm saying whilst there is no chance or even a rumour of this, it's the profile of player that I think we need of we have genuine promotion ambitions. We're not in the market to buy a special player, so a young potential talent (ala Villa had with Abrahams when promoted) or an experienced quality loan (mitrovic fired Fulham to promotion twice from this same league) are the levels you need.

We can argue all day about whether Hughes or Doyle are better than Thomas or Kitching, but it's a 25 goal a season striker required that pushes us above where we are currently.

In seriousness, the Birmingham link sounds like drivel and even if it wasn't, we're a very different club to them and I don't think the 'break all financial rules going and hope to get promoted before you get caught' is a model we should look to emulate.

Didn't McFadz have him in his back pocket, in both matches of their promotion season?
