Jim Smith 2,339 Posted June 8, 2023 You’d imagine the club will bite their hand off if they get any sort of offer for Nunez at that level. im undecided on him to be honest. Has moments where he looks great but then others where he lacks strength and gives the ball away a lot. Another who has suffered from our imbalanced squad as he looks best playing behind the striker but inexplicably rarely gets played there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ekoku: The Ambassador Of The People 122 Posted June 8, 2023 If that was the price offered for Sara i could understand it, but Nunez?! Would drive him there myself for that fee. I like Nunez and think there is definitely a player there but £17m for someone who went missing in games quite a bit i would be more than happy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

king canary 7,669 Posted June 8, 2023 Of all the posts to call Cambridge out on this is an odd choice. As much as people might not like the local journalists there will be a semblance of quality control- they won't be posting articles based on random twitter accounts. Perfectly reasonable to highlight a story on the pinkun main page on the pinkun forum. 10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just because it doesn't seem believable to us as fans doesn't mean it's wrong to post it when the source is actually a local journalist. I quite like Nunez and with a proper pre-season and no injuries think he suits a pressing Wagner side - didn't he have the best running stats of anyone in our side? But anything above £12 million is pretty crazy money for someone who's not yet proven in Championship football. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lake district canary 4,545 Posted June 8, 2023 Would hate to lose Nunez as he has the potential to be brilliant for us. The game where he scored twice showed exactly what he is capable of and in a confident team under Wagner, he'll look so much better. PL clubs still have too much money to take a punt on players and we must resist the temptation to cash in on him. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hogesar 9,743 Posted June 8, 2023 (edited) If this is true, how are some fans going to be able to do the dance between claiming Webber's recruitment is a diabolical mess and wishing desperately for us to be as good as Brighton at recruiting players?

The game where he scored twice showed exactly what he is capable of and in a confident team under Wagner, he'll look so much better. PL clubs still have too much money to take a punt on players and we must resist the temptation to cash in on him. He's a very likeable character who clearly gives his all. There are valid reasons for his in-out performances this last season and tantamount is that usual period of adjustment following such a massive change in lifestyle. Also, he has apparently had a lot of other things to contend with, as if that wasn't enough, and has, by all accounts had a demanding schedule of games far, far away for his national team on top of a decent number of appearances for City. Quite some load to take on board for one so young experiencing a different culture for the first time. There are similarities with Onel in his apparent love for his new environment, never to be ignored. His moments of brilliance and work rate are hard to ignore, he should become stronger and will benefit from a rest and a decent pre-season. The best is yet to come from this boy. These factors favour hanging onto the player, but £17m is hard to ignore considering the club's present state. Would be a pity if he was on his way out. If it were to be that amount I would spend the lot on an accomplished defensive midfielder and a versatile "sniffer" for the forward line-up, Perhaps most, like me, shudder at the thought of Webber being entrusted with such amounts, although he has done well thus far without spending a fortune on fees, at least.

Branston Pickle 3,687 Posted June 8, 2023 I posted this in the other thread - I’d definitely prefer to keep Nunez. £20m or thereabouts is a decent sum for a guy who was a bit in-and-out, but I always though after a rest and pre-season that he’d kick on. As to this rumour, who knows - seems unlikely but you never know. But having a go at Cambs for posting something from one of the pinkun journos, which is now their lead story, feels a little harsh. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Midlands Yellow 4,076 Posted June 8, 2023 Didn’t Brighton poach our head of recruitment recently. Maybe he rates Nunez but no way will he move at the rumoured price. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pyro Pete 1,919 Posted June 8, 2023 While this information sounds more like something a player's agent has fed to the Chilean press to generate interest in their player, it's a bit unfair to criticise Sam just for reporting it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
