Ivan Toney

We still need a top striker. Add a top goalscorer to this team and we can really compete in all competitions. I’m back to my original thinking that Toney isn’t the right option for us.

It is if Havertz is our only consistent presence there. Depth is certainly needed but like you say, maybe not top of the list since the new year.

Even if not 100m, it will be still within 70-80m I can tell you.

Really doubt it.

If you. Think Eddie worth 40, then Toney will get a lot more.

Nketiah is younger, on a long term contract and plays for a big club. The sort of player that Brentford would be bending over backwards for.

Spurs bought Johnson for 50m from Forest. Is he more established than Nketiah?

There are many reasons why Brentford will need to be realistic with their Toney valuation.

Eddie proves nothing yet, and he is not 18, he is 24 already.

What had Brennan Johnson proven?

Because he has a better profile?
Younger, better body built?

I also think, if the big 6 are interested in you, you can fetch more than market value.

Do you see any big 6 (excluding us) is looking for Eddie’s service?

35m isn’t big money for a Premier League. Nor is 40m. 100m is.

Doubt we go for Toney anyway but think he’d be a smart pick up. Anything over 60m, less smart.

We definitely still need a striker. I don’t trust our front 5 to not go on a goalless run again in the future. We need a killer in front of goal — final jigsaw to this team in my view. Another 1-2 back up DMs/Wingers and we’re golden.

Toney on Filthy Fellas at some point in the future:
“So you see that game at Emirates yeah, that shot Aaron saved, if I scored that I would be playing for Arsenal now (kisses his teeth), it’s their miss but you know I’m very happy at Ipswich now, no complaints (sips drink)”

Social media really is full of people eager to make something of nothing.

Arteta didn’t mug Toney off there at all lmao. Toney was clearly communicating with someone else out of shot, Arteta crossed his path, they shook hands, patted backs and moved on. What am I even meant to be watching here? Such a routine interaction.
