Transfer Rumour Joshua Zirkzee

But DCL got lucky that he could play games as we had nobody else worth a place, that isn't the case here, he has to sit on the bench until DCL gets injured or completely loses form. The chances DC L got don't usually pan out, the we want success now brigade don't allow for young players to develop and so it makes no sense as we won't play him exactly the same as Kean.

Nope.

The club stuck with Calvert-Lewin. The player himself revealed how Brands wouldn't sign another striker so he was particularly keen to reward that show of faith.

Even when Moise Kean come in, Calvert-Lewin was the preferred choice.
 

It's like Kean, playing at Juventus, international caps at a young age, touted as the next big thing, comes to us and it doesn't work out, goes to PSG and rips it up there. Even though Kean you could say was further ahead in his development, a change might be what Zirkzee needs.
Yeah, guess it is a bit like the Kean situation. Just seems like he’s gone from being their bright shining light to sellable in a short space of time but I haven’t followed his situation or Bayern particularly closely. Now that DCL is so established and rarely seems to get injured can see why a young prospect who won’t be demanding to start every game makes sense as back up option. As various have said, sure beats Tosun!

And we all moaned at the club for that.

Easy to slate Brands and the club but wow, their faith in DCL is paying off.
 

im all for signing these types of youngsters, its always a shot in the dark.

every now and again you pull a diamond out the bag.

thats a big club mentality, everyone battling for the next crop and im glad we take a few shots at it
 
If we signed this lad where would this leave Ellis Simms as he's a year older?


Don't think he'll make the grade (currently) for me.

Big and Physical, but haven't seen too much else to suggest he could be an established PL player. Always saw flashes in DCL, whether than was with your Burnley's or whatever, but Simms may be a step too much at this moment in time.
