toddy Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 Asked if we are bringing in anybody .......''My answer is the same as it has been for the last few weeks, we will add if we can......trying to bring 1 or 2 more players time will tell whether it is possible'' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rample Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 The last interview I heard he said 1 or 2 But it was worded very much that it would more likely be 1. It really is a mystery what is going on this summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toddy Posted August 24, 2016 Author Share Posted August 24, 2016 I know previously he said that any players brought in would have to be better than we currently have and would have to enhance us, but that is the same with any team. So I am thinking every player that has been sold so far in the championship is no better than who we already have? Alan Judge is available, would he enhance us? Is there any issue where we need to sell before we can buy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YouRams Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 John Percy from the telegraph linking us with Scott Hogan from Brentford. Hardly played the last few years guessing he's injury prone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philmycock Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 Surely anyone is better than Blackman? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hardly played the last few years guessing he's injury prone. I'd have him in a heartbeat. Had a nasty injury last season but made a really strong finish when he came back.

Dont know a great deal about him tbh, Pearsons next hope at a Vardy mark 2 looking at his previous clubs in recent years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sexydadbod Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 Would love Hogan here. He works his socks off and was on absolute fire for Brentford at the end of last season. He is as close to a Jamie Vardy mark 2 as you can get. Would only cost 3 to 4 million too. I can see why we are interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PistoldPete2 Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 Time will tell? Blooming heck there isn't much time left. The business we did on transfer deadline day last year doesn't look so smart in hindsight. Why leave it so late when we've had all summer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YouRams Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 He's also been linked with Hull and the figure mentioned was £7m surely he's not worth that on the back of the injury good end to last season or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yani P Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 Think it will be..we would like to bring in 1 or 2 more but its pretty certain that whoever they are they will end up at Newcastle or Villa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnigmaRam Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 Let's bid for about 8 players and Newcastle and villa might miss a couple so we actually buy someone!! Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair comment though Pearson did add the caveat that the player would also have to be value for money as well as an improvement on our current playing squad. Given those criteria combined it's little wonder we haven't made any cash signings this summer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MackworthRamIsGod Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 Boro proved with Stuani, Watford proved with most of their squad and bristol City prove with Kodjia, there are teams that play football in other countries around the world, some of which have players who are willing to move to England and cost half as much as a player in England. In the current transfer market it would be more than wise to maybe look abroad, bag a bargain and turn that into a profit in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really is a mystery what is going on this summer. Not really a mystery both Newcastle and villa are taking everybody who is available to the championship who would improve us or the figures quoted to us for others are hugely inflated for our available budget.

Is there any issue where we need to sell before we can buy? He wouldn't enhance us at the moment, but purely because he is still recovering from a broken leg - I would definitely take him if he was fit. However the rumours appear to suggest Newcastle are in talks to buy him anyway. 24 minutes ago, Yani P said: Think it will be..we would like to bring in 1 or 2 more but its pretty certain that whoever they are they will end up at Newcastle or Villa 21 minutes ago, EnigmaRam said: Let's bid for about 8 players and Newcastle and villa might miss a couple so we actually buy someone!! Lol Anyone we want to buy just gets taken by Villa or Newcastle. We are not on a level playing field financially, so unfortunately we will struggle to get anyone of any quality from the English leagues if Villa or Newcastle are even remotely interested (which they seem to be for every available player). We also seem reluctant to buy anyone from the rest of the world, so I think will struggle to get anyone unless Wisdom feels like coming back.
