Mason 47 1,471 Posted August 31, 2023 Cannon was the exciting link, but I did think from the outset it sounded like a media move to try and get others bidding. Likewise Lowe, whom Bournemouth would prefer to sell and we've been linked before. Either way, our business has no obvious flops and at the moment we looked to have played it all rather well. So if we do bring someone in- or decide it doesn't suit us- then I think they've earned the right for benefit of the doubt for the time being. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No offence meant of course but a midtable signing for a midtable team..

I hadn't heard of him before and nothing about him since can be classed exciting if you ignore the inflated price tag. I had also not heard of him, don't get me wrong. But subsequent research suggests Cannon would be a very exciting young player with already a decent record at this level and potential to push on. If I'm being really picky, the most exciting link was Reiner from Real Madrid, because he's foreign & played for Real Madrid. My parameters for exciting signings aren't so deep. Personally, I think if we do clinch a deal it'll be someone yet to be linked. Edited August 31, 2023 by Mason 47 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd heard the name but couldn't tell you who he played for. However, 8 goals in 20 Championship games, a ratio of 1 every 2.5 games is impressive. Even more so in a midtable side. In today's market, that justifies 7 million sadly. Look at how much Cameron Archer went for. And whilst he's more proven with two successful loan stints under his belt, he scored a goal less than Cannon in his 20 game Preston spell. I was very excited by the rumour. Shame it looks like it's not happening. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ted Mackie Dee 5 Posted August 31, 2023 Will be really disappointing if after being linked with Reiner, Ogwuru and Cannon we end up with Lowe or no one but Lowe would be better than no one and maybe could prove to be a bargain Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capt. Pants 4,361 Posted August 31, 2023 £10m for Stewart? Scored 10 in the Championship last season, admitedly 26 in League One the season before. Makes £7m for Cannon about right, if not good value, bearing in mind his goals at Preston. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mason 47 1,471 Posted August 31, 2023 Seeing that Kelly @ Bournemouth is being linked with Spurs. There were tentative Omobamidele links around the same time as Aarons went, wonder if its one to keep an eye on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
