Either would be an upgrade over Jackson.


Osimhen - yes.

I think Jackson in Portugal destroys that league.

Watkins is interesting to me, but I don’t see it happening.

Ekitike has no appeal to me.

Didn’t see the Dario Essugo signing coming. Backup to Caicedo, apparently. Don’t know much about him other than he’s young. More young talent.

Sancho back to ManU. I kind of liked him. Maybe not at the price he wanted though.

I like depth but we need an elite striker.
We could run through the league w/ a scorer.
The service from gusto, madnuke,palmer, James
We have the guys to get ut close we need a finisher

I liked him too. He was serviceable. That being said, for that kind of money, we need better than serviceable.

Jamie Gittens would be a nice pickup in that role imho.

Osimhen is about the only one available. All of the rest are kind of meh.

He was a brilliant signing imho.

He is tough, clinical, and will be available when the African Cup of Nations rolls around.

He was also a bargain at that price.

Agree. He was a problem at Ipswich and basically all they had which means he garnered a lot of attention. He didn’t have a Cole feeding him balls. Can’t wait to see him in the upcoming competition.

Kudus to Chelsea and Sanchez to West Ham in a “player swap.”

The Hammers need a keeper, and Sancho played for Potter, so that makes sense to me.

Also, they are in rebuild mode.

Making Kudus available to Chelsea injects some cash into their account.

Lastly, in a “trade” such as this, your club gets all of the cash out on the books for a sale, while the purchase can (and will be) amortized for 5 years.

Both clubs win financially.

I could see this swap happening for that reason alone.

Lastly, I like the Kudus pickup, and getting rid of Sanchez would be a major bonus.

Let’s do it!

Sounds like we through in Dewesbury Hall in the deal but Hammers said no.

If DH is removed, they may say yes. I think the straight swap is where we are headed. Just my .02.

Going - no.

Watching - yes.

Goal Neto.

That ball by Jackson was a dime ball.
