David Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 Show me a footballer that prefers the Championship over the Premier League and I’ll show you a fibber. Tammy Abraham would prefer to play in the Premier League, I could have told you that weeks before Nixon. Has to get an offer from a Premier League club though.

clarkeram7 Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 Id argue that if Vydra got sold tomorrow between 12-15 million we'd have the funds to possibly go out and sign the lad permanently. He didn't have a great season at a poor Swansea side, would you rather sit on the bench in the premier league or sign a 3/4 year contract for a championship side and play every week as a main striker. He's only what 21/22 and with his former youth coach involved it's surely tempting for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whiteroseram Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 Of course he prefers prem, we'll just be there waiting in case he doesn't get any decent offers from prem. I don't think we'll get him, but like any transfer we'll have a list of options, he was probably top of the list and I'm glad our 1st options are the likes of TA, so long as our 2nd and 3rd choices are also high quality Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's only what 21/22 and with his former youth coach involved it's surely tempting for him. Chelsea wouldn’t let him go for such a measly fee, and why should they? He’s a year younger than Zanzala and he’s played for England, was the second highest scoring teenager in the Premier League last season (behind Rashford) and already scored 26 goals at this level - when he was 18! It’s not the right time for Chelsea to sell, but they’d want a cheap buy back clause and upwards of £30m to entertain the thought. Also, he’s on £50k/week at Chelsea according to Bristol City fans.

We won't be able to invest the Vydra money and some on 1 player...it will be used to get some fresh faces in and clear some of the debt....

Sure. My answer was as narrow-minded as the question. There's a lot's of factors which has an effect on decision making. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was rhetorical to be honest as it’s obvious, like you say other factors play a part in where the player moves to. If Derby say to Abraham, you will have the number 9 shirt, the place would be yours to lose in the team, we want you to lead the line and be our key to the Premier League. In come Burnley, hey Tammy, we heard you want to stay in the Premier League, we can’t guarentee you football, you’ll be more of a backup for Woods, which move would he fancy more? By joining Derby wouldn’t mean he prefers Championship football. Month to go of the normal window, he’s in no rush to jump at our offer if one is in. Sensible on his part to wait and see if anything else comes up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The longer it goes on, the more likely we get him I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like we are ready and waiting to see if any Prem clubs go in for him first.

JuanFloEvraTheCocu'sNesta Posted July 9, 2018 Share Posted July 9, 2018 The important question for me is if he did sign will he mysteriously get an 'S' added to his surname like Hendrick did? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
