BobLoz3 492 Posted May 28, 2021 I think with Byram what we all need to remember is that there is absolutely NO way we would have been able to buy him for 750k had he NOT been so injury prone in the past. I remember him being at Leeds and there was loads of hype about him. I think West Ham forked out a fair few quid for his services. Look. He's a brilliant player when fit and even kept Jamal out of the left hand side. Which is pretty impressive considering he's an RB. He's doing individual work at the moment and this can only be a good sign. I know it's tempting to write him off due to his injury history but I think we could be pleasantly surprised. And if we can keep him fit then we have an excellent player for that position. We shouldn't rely on that but hey... We don't even know if we'll need to yet. Everyone on here is just making assumptions based on things Webber said and heresay. It could be that our three most "saleable" assets are all still here come the start of the season. And I for one wouldn't be surprised if that was the case. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Norwich believed to have £30m to spend before sales and after £15m spent on Gibson and Dimi Targeting a left back, left centre half, two central midfielders and a winger who can play as striker Claims Josh Martin might be sold if the right deal came along, with Stiepermann, Placheta, Hugill and Onel Nyland expected to move on this summer, still a way to go on that one though Josh King is a target but is believed to be a target also for Eddie Howe when he finally takes the Celtic job Credits us with an interest in taking one of Amad, Brandon Williams or James Garner on loan It seems - one never knows in football - that Howe is not getting the Celtic job.

How long have we got until the window opens? Would love to see us sign someone early on who makes our current players think ‘this is good to see, we mean business this time around’.

Icecream Snow 761 Posted May 29, 2021 Koln won 5-1 to stay in the Bundesliga, which means Sebastiaan Bornauw isn't relegated. Not sure how keen we were on him, but probably doesn't help us much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
birchfest 397 Posted May 30, 2021 A few names mentioned on the pinkun today! Id say the buyout clause alone with Dike would put him out of our price range also seems a similar style to Hugill, though an upgrade. The spanish winger is a bit more of an interesting one, would be about the right price for us and what we are looking for. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They couldn't afford him and one of these? I doubt they could attract either Sterling or Mahrez, could they?  3 hours ago, cambridgeshire canary said: Don't see Dike joining us just to be benched by Pukki Would Dike be a regular starter for any Premier League side? I think he'd initially be a squad player wherever he'd go (in the Premier League). I can't see us spending anywhere near £18m on a targetman this summer, though.  Also, the press in Spain and Italy are saying that Atletico Madrid have made Rodrigo De Paul their main target. He's a similar(ish) type of player to Buendia and a regular starter for Argentina, so hopefully that one comes off. The opening bid was apparently £20m plus a player which has been rejected, so maybe that's a sign that aren't prepared to go big with a cash offer?  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
