Random Rumours

So we are signing both Emegha and Panichelli from Strasbourg. Should go well with their fans.

I'm currently more interested in when Disasi, Fofana, Tosin and Badiashile leave on the plane to Saudi captained by Laurence Stewart

Wondering if we’re able to cancel the Emegha move and just ‘reallocate’ them to Panichelli.

I know which one looks the better prospect.

 
I did see rumours we were interested in a January loan move for Ivan Toney. I would be open to it because he has experience in the league and is a good goalscorer. I'm not sure these young strikers with potential are going to cut it as we need experience up top this season. I worry that we are relying too much on Delap and Pedro.

 
Also, on a side note, remember when I posted rumours we were linked to Woltemade on here. Doesn't look like such a poor signing now, does it. He would have been a great option for us up top, that's for sure. I think we were interested for far less than what Newcastle bought him for too.

I think they decided on Emegha instead for lower fee. A Haaland sized striker on the cheap basically ... and not on £500K a week either LOL

Or as Maresca said we have signed 2 st this season 😂😂😂

I am personally confused with this Emegha signing because our manager said we sold our starting st from last season because we already have 2 st.

The bought him to sell him for profit later.

It is very hard to get profit if you don't play the player and put him in the bomb squad.

Of course all this assuming that Emegha can't get minutes as we have 2 st already in the squad as Maresca alluded.

Emegha was bought so that Strasbourg didn’t sell to another club.

It’s that simple and it’s the model we’ll continue to use going forward.

Strasbourg with their smaller running costs can sell to us their better players at a high price (for them) to continue to turn profit, in turn we can (hopefully) make even more profit when we shift said player on.

Panichelli looks to be the real deal. Emegha is just more profit to be made at a later date.

 
Endrick links resurfacing, not averse to them at all it’s just who makes way!

Looks like he’s going to Lyon on loan, but I’ve no doubt we’ll be sniffing round in the summer. Feels like this is one of the dream wonder kids for blue co.

Seems strange that for once the Spanish clubs seem to have got the wrong one and we got the better South American superstar....so far.

 
I still feel like Endrick will be a good player. The move to Real Madrid was just too big too soon. He's not the first, look at Odegaard.

He needs to leave the club though, and should have left once they signed Mbappe. He is never going to get enough minutes to develop in the “9” role.

Shades of Victor Roque at Barca who was also expected to be the next big import, loaned out to Betis, and now back in Brazil playing for Palmeiras. Not sure a half season loan changes anything for Endrick, he needs a permanent move away. I am not also convinced he will hack it in Europe as a lone “9”, he needs to be paired with a foil.

Yeah given his profile, he screams as an inside forward for a side that plays a back 5.

Italy may beckon.
