Not had a good day. So I have spent my time in bed watching clips of CF's
I can't see Osimhen happening and I can't see Newcastle selling us Isak.
So I spent to much time checking king out Sesko, Cunha and Delap. These just happen to be three players I think we have a realistic chance of signing.
I am a big fan of Sesko but in the end it was the other two that I think would give us better/ different options. Both can be a bit like Costa in attitude and I like that sort of in your face type attitude.

Sorry to hear that you have mot been well today Tom.
I believe that Cinha might be Man U bound.

Best wishes Tom.
My punt would be Delap, a proper old school striker. I also like Rashford, he is a decent striker but Emery at Villa is a very clever manager and knows a thing or two about footballers so will probably snap him up on a permanent deal. He also likes Felix and I expect him to end up at Villa next season.

I think Mr Potter wants Felix on loan at the happy hammers. In fact I think the hammers might be trying to sign a few of our players.

Tom, hope you feel better soon. I don’t classify Cunha as a CF, though he is a good player. I like Delap but he is a project. I would go for Goykeres.

Think Goykeres is heading to Arsenal, shame about that.

It’s only about a week ago that the gooners were getting Sesko.
The one thing we can be sure of, any signing will not make everyone happy! Unless it’s Isak?.
23 Apr 2025 10:50:10
Tom, we may end up not getting any of the above.

Jimbo, very true. They might all chose to go to other clubs or stay at there current clubs.
It’s the rumours that make it fun, not the fact.
23 Apr 2025 16:26:03
Tom, I think that players mentioned will all move: whether we can attract them will be dependent on a number of factors. Rumours that Man City and Man U are in for Costa: very frustrating if it’s true.
23 Apr 2025 17:03:11
Jimbo, that wouldn’t surprise me. I think he is one of the very best keepers in Europe. I would be gutted.
{Ed001's Note - isn't de Gea out of contract in the summer? Surely he is worth taking? Been back to his best for Fiorentina this season.}

Too old Ed. If he was in the brazillian second division and 18 he'd already be here ;P.
