Thereās only one fraud around here and itās that Belgian flop at Madrid.
I agree with @Phoebica , Dusan to Juventus is so obvious. Fiorentina have looked like big dopes lately when it comes to transfers to Juve. I think it might actually happen in January so they can extract a fee.
We just have to pick our moment when everyone else isnāt looking like we did with Partey. Hopefully that moment is in January because so far weāve been linked to Watkins, DCL, Jovic, Vlahovic, Issak, and more, we should have the means and method to get someone if weāre serious.
Iām actually not too worried that weāll find a suitable replacement for Lacazette soon, the market isnāt as bad as it once was for CFs.
Be prepared for the club to say they spent a lot in the summer, excusing relative inaction over the next 1-2 windows. Just saying, the club owners and executives will have to be kept as honest as possible by fans, otherwise this club will continue to always be 2-3 key signings short from being truly competitive.
I like Isak but there are still many questions around him.
Is Isak a striker, a second striker or a winger? Can he score 20 goals a season? Is he clinical enough? Can he utilize his height?
With Vlahovic you know what you get. He is a striker. He can finish the ball. He is a monster physically.
Iām hyped for this signing, get him and another good CM and weāre getting towards a strong starting XI.
Whatās the maximum youād be happy for us to pay for Vlahovic? (Assuming reasonable wages).
