Transfer Rumour Che Adams

[mikel_88]

Add to that physicality, because that is what we miss in DCL`s absence....

Maupay 5`8"
Adams 5`9"

Adams is Maupay MKII

Not at all different types of players, this is not saying that i want him here.

Having a striker who can hold the ball and get us up the field is essential for the way Dyche wants to play.

Not necessarily a big fan of Whoscored, but statistically they list "holding on to the ball" and "passing" as Adams' weaknesses.

He has more to his game than Maupay tbh

I think people are focusing on the height aspect too much

Cahill would often beat much bigger players to headers because he could jump and time those jumps efficiently

I've seen plenty of shorter powerhouses and also plenty of tall weaklings, just because Adams is 5 ft 9 doesn't mean he's going to automatically be out muscled every time he goes up against bigger players

Oh; Hindsight is such a perfect science you make it sound factual.

If we had bought him last summer and he had turned out to be rubbish, would you now be saying why did we buy this unproven Premier League player instead of going for a proven PL player like Maupay?

Wrong poster; nope, I picked the right one.

Ive supported Onana, Patterson, Mykolenko, Garner, Branthwaite, McNeil, Richarlison, DCL and others from day 1.

At no time were they classed as 'proven' in a positive manner by the majority of our fan base. The only one with premier league consistency was McNeil who maybe 10% rated.

I was also very vocal about NOT wanting to sign Maupay.

I want us to sign u21 aged players NOT premier league proven players. NOT Harriso and NOT Young and certainly NOT Adams.

So yes, you have the wrong poster.

Really warming to him the more clips I watch. Should be good comedy if nothing else, check out 1:00 but hopefully time-stamped:

No, I did PL only because, funnily enough, Everton are in the PL.

Maupay has played in French 1st and 2nd division so why would I compare that against Adam's early career in England? Not sure you understand what a fair comparison is.

Well then give them a fair comparison and compare their records in the PL and Championship where they've both played majority of their careers.

born in Leicester , plays for Scotland got to be a good omen ?

Just saying like !

If his wages are low he's a great squad addition - just softens the dependence on DCL and now Kermity can develop

No clue if accurate of course;

The Toffees has so far brought in Ashley Young, Arnaut Danjuma, Jack Harrison and teenage striker Youssef Chermiti from Sporting Lisbon.

According to FBRef, Adams earns a wage of £30,000-a-week at St Mary’s Stadium after joining the club for a reported fee of £15million in 2019.

He managed 10 goals and three assists in 35 games across all competitions last season as Southampton suffered relegation to the Championship.

We a clearly very, very desperate.

Not what I saw when they beat us last year.

Holding the ball up?!?! By any chance? That is one of the the Adams fanboys shouts doing the rounds ATM.

This is incorrect, a poster put some info up just now which list holding the ball up as a weakness, looking at other scouting sites it does suggest this whole `holding the ball up` line is a myth or a blatant lie.

Unless there is evidence to the contrary.... which there won`t be.

We're paying Holgate £72k a week. There is no way we're giving anyone low wages.

That’s because most players turn into Pele when they rock up against us

I remember people saying how good Maupay was against us
