Joel Valencia having a medical at Brentford today, could clear the way for Maupay to leave, although apparently they are also trying to sign a lad from Amiens, Ghoddos or Khoddos or something, played for Ostersunds under Potter
Needs 15 goals to become our all time top goal scorer, cant see him doing it unless he gets another season after this, but i do think he will get close.
Whether he ends up here or at Villa, hardly ideal preperations for Maupay with Brentford not playing him, sending him home from training etc. Has he played ANY of Brentfords friendlies? I'm sure he'll be fit but probably a bit rusty, gotta feel for the lad imho.
Couple of lines in todays Argus about people close to Maupay thinking we'd be a good fit. Sounds encouraging, lets hope somethings happening on this one, i like what i've seen of him.
Yeah i did think that, i remember a few on here raving about him last season, but i just dont see it at all, i remember him playing for Swansea in their last premier league season and thinking how crap he was, ok last season he certainly found the net plenty of times, maybe that is Potters...
I can see your logic, but really hope you are wrong, never been impressed with McBurnie, yes he scored a few last season but always looks clumsy and seems to fall over all the time, i'd rather go with our existing strikers than waste ANY money on him.
Just my opinion, but if you are right, he...
Nope, but i'd like us to, i dont actually think we will sign a striker at all, i think Andone will be a far better player this season, you could see he was frustrated last season, tactics, Hughton, not enough starts, being substituted earlier than he would have liked when he did start, probably...
True and Citeh do all right with Aguero and Jesus sharing the role, neither strike me as being Murrayesque in stature.
Ok, before anyone points it out, i am aware that they have ability way beyond Andone and Maupay, but it does show that good movement is just as important, if not more so than...
I know Potter normally only plays one up top, and we would definitely lack height, but Andone and Maupay would be a real handful for a lot of defences, really impressed with Maupays movement and ability to be in the right place for rebounds etc.
