[Albion] Andre Ayew

[Icy Gull]

Brian Owen is alluding to needing cover for Connolly.
No mention on Ali J.

Basically saying no to Agnew in the Argus now

 

[Mr Putdown]

No nearly as bad as his brother who does nothing for Palace.

I’m not sure nine goals last season for palace counts as nothing.

One goal less than your top scorer admittedly, but four more than any other Brighton player managed in all competitions.

That's a relief.

Any word on when Super Mario will be holding up the shirt?

Not surprised. I hardly think a retired old cricketer could cover for our Aaron

 

[Swansman]

Im not looking for an argument but your Ayew stats sounds like Ali J before we signed him which may go against signing him

I don’t think we’d be getting anything better than what we’ve got

No, basically no similarities.

I dont think so either, but same goes for the other Championship strikers.

Not being harsh, and I’m sure the lad is a decent player. But he’s 30. In the Championship. His career is on the downwards trajectory.

I would say no personally, unless he was exceptionally good value.

I agree, I dont really want this signing either, would just prefer him over the other players often mentioned (King, Welbeck and Deeney). Welbeck is soon 30, dependent on his pace and very injury prone, Deeney looked really past it last year and King is just.. I dont know, I dont see it.

Anyway, probably wont matter as I think the chance of someone actually signing is like 1%.

I can’t even edit now either

Looking at how well so many of the England U21s and U20s have moved up to full international level, there is no reason why this guy cannot raise his game for the PL.

Would rather see him get his chance until January before we commit to shedloads of Tony's cash again.

Agreed. Potter has a few weeks to look at hime before the next transfer window - I guess we’re taking a calculated risk that we’ll be ok with what we have for a dozen games (including Andi). If he’s deemed ready he stays, if not he’ll be out on a half-season loan in Jan. By that time, we potentially have Andone back as well so may not even need to spend.

........contrary to everything Barber said about the transfer policy on Tuesday night.

1. Would cost £15m+
2. Salary would be enormous (£70k+)
3. 4 year deal with little or no re-sale value once his contract starts drawing to a close, could cost us £30m in total.
4. Would probably mean we’d have to drop our interest in Nunez type Strikers such as Edouard whose value could double or triple if we brought them into the Premier League.

So Connolly and Ali J both doubts for the weekend leaving us with ONE striker and an under 23 that's only ever played at league one level.


Not to bang on about it. But surely unacceptable.

Ayew at CP was a success imho.

 

[Don Tmatter]

WBA picked up Karlan Grant today, he’d have done a job for us wouldn’t he?

 

[Bozza]

....not at 90k a week though. We’re more likely to chuck Zeqiri in at the deep end

Well, yes.

But Ayew isn't going to be earning £90k/week unless he's still at Swansea and they're trying their hardest to find an exit route for him.

That's not to say he's going to be holding up an Albion shirt tomorrow with a cheesy grin, but we're I'd suggest we're working hard to get another striker in, and rightly so.

Couldn't see him beimg able to get to grips with Potterball. Not that kind of player.

Me too.

Seems like he doesn’t do quick progressive one touch football but is fast, strong, powerful and knows where the onion bag is.

Great fit for West Brom.

Where’s the Connolly info from?

Released by Swansea.

Yup... was always going to happen. Their best player but on £80k a week, something they definitely can not afford.

Well if he is looking for a contract somewhere else l very mush doubt it will be on anything like that money. Probably too old now, but we did supposedly show an interest in him last year I wonder if he might be a wild card?

On a free transfer and £60-£70k a week, worth a two year contract in my opinion even if there is little or no resale value.
