You wanted to spend £50m on Callum Wilson just to be a 3rd choice striker replacing for Tosun and Niasse????

We'll rename it the World Soccer Cup, but of course only English teams will be in it.
That's cool
33 years old and a striker who doesn’t score, sign me up.

We will get 30m tops combined if we're somehow able to offload all of Tosun, Sigurdsson, Bolasie and Schneiderlin.
£30m would be absolute dreamland stuff for that group, I would honestly have no qualms whatsoever in letting all of them go for free.

I doubt we will be signing a striker this summer, unless we get a crazy offer for Richarlison or DCL. And ings & Wilson are both 28/29 with a history of injuries, there’s not a chance Brands would entertain going for them.
Zaha, while again he is better than what we have on the left at present, he’s not a true elite footballer. Which is what you should be getting when paying 70mil for 28yr old. And he has 3 goals this season.
And doucoure not even worth debating, bang average
literally no to everything you’ve said
Always difficult to know considering what a poor league the SPL is. For every Henrik Larsson there is a Nikica Jelavic, but currently has one of the better goals-to-minutes ratios in Europe.
Also back this one. He's doing better than Dembele done and he's about to get a big money move to the PL in the Summer.

I wouldnt want us to sign all of them like - as you said together for the money spent it wouldn't be that big an increase in quality to justify the outlay however I would certainly take one or two at the right price.
The problem for us is that until we get back into Europe our options are rather limited- we either a. Offer CL quality players daft wages (which I dont think Brands will do) or b. Sign attainable players who whilst not massively better than what we have can come in and do a job rather than the squad we have now filled with players like Tosun, Davies, Coleman, Niasse, Martina, Schneiderlin who realistically offer us little to nothing and in some cases can be detrimental to us ie. Niasse.
People forget before Man City signed the likes of Silva, Toure & Aguero they had to sign players like Elano, Santa Cruz, Lescott, Adebayor- players who weren't great but good enough to push you into Europe that opens up the door for you to attract those 'next level' players.

I've said it for years, I wish we could have capped the foreign players to like 3 per team. Money and foreign players have spoilt our league. People won't understand who have been born watching chelski and wengers French arsenal team. I grew up watching 90's football with limited foreign players it was brilliant. It was only towards the end of the 90's it started to go sour.
Drive them there ourselves won't we Mike hahahaahahaa
