TeemuVanBasten 3,327 Posted August 30, 2022 If we could miraculously con Farke or some other German team out of £5M for Rashica then I'd love to see us doing the sensible and rational thing and poach a domestic player on the way up like we used to, this lad is classy. Do we think that shifting Rashica would see us sign a proper right winger or are we going to pretend that Sinani is good enough? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man 3,703 Posted August 30, 2022 If we can get £5m got Rashica, I'd prefer to see that money invested in another defender, personally. We should have enough in attacking areas as it is, but we only really have Hanley, Omobamidele and Gibson as frontline centre backs, because I'm not sure if Tomkinson is ready for a Championship promotion challenge. So yeah, another centre back and then a left back on loan would be where I try to spend any spare cash. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You know Watkins is always one of those players I forget even exists or that he played for us at all. Nevermind that he apparently made almost 30 appearances for us. Must have been the season we drew 0-0 twice to Burton Albion.. Think I blocked most of that season out of my mind for a reason Edited August 31, 2022 by cambridgeshire canary Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NeymarSmith 130 Posted August 31, 2022 Josh bowler would be a good signing, can't see blackpool holding out for mega money so 5-6m would be a solid signing for him! I suppose you can argue do we need him but if Todd walks end of year we would need someone to replace him, so bowler sounds great. Anyone seen any L1 player they think would be worth a punt?

king canary 7,455 Posted August 31, 2022 Just watching a bit of Blackpool v Blackburn and shocked to find out Bowler is only 23- I don't know if its the beard but he looks about 33. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

repman 616 Posted September 1, 2022 Would be a nice signing but we just don't have the room for him, especially with Rashica still here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bovril 214 Posted September 1, 2022 (edited) Nottingham Forest have literally been re-born and signed a whole new club's worth of players. Edit: He's actually off to Olympiakos on a season-long loan. The owner of Forest is the same as Olympiakos. Another case of Waford/Udinese, where owners use the wealth of one club to purchase players for the other, depending on each club's current circumstance. Initial fee is £2m, rising to £4m total.

Ken Hairy 3,682 Posted September 1, 2022 To be fair to Forest they lost something like 15 players in the summer so needed a massive incoming of players. A lot of their Championship squad were loan signings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They also have a Championship ready player to come back and make an instant impact if they go down or easily sell if not. Doesn't quite beat Watford paying themselves £16m for Hassane Kamara though.
