Dolman Block B Posted January 27, 2020 Report Share Posted January 27, 2020 This guy signs for Forest tomorrow. So you would think that’s them out of the Wells race. Leeds brought a top striker in today and are spending no more. so either he stays at Burnley if Vydra goes to Russia or he is bought by us or QPR Really hope this happens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet more clubs come in for him for 7 in the summer anyway. So they might be wanting to get him whilst they can. Also aren't other clubs apparently interested too? You’ll probably find that Burnley’s negotiating point is somewhere along the lines of, “You need a striker, we have 4 of them, you can have one for £3.5m if we can have one of your 4 central midfielders”? We don’t want the midfielder as much as we want the striker, the striker is what will score us goals (hopefully) & put us in a position to compete better higher up the league. Brownhill in theory can be replaced by Massengo, Nagy or Smith for starters & if we feel we need more then we have a few days to recall Walsh or Morrell or both. I guess a lot could also hinge on who instigated any potential deal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need him now and He’s available to everyone at 7m... There will be other clubs interested in the summer. we shouldn’t take 7m now. We are pretty much guaranteed that fee in the summer so might aswell keep him unless someone makes it worthwhile us losing him now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

westonred Posted January 27, 2020 Report Share Posted January 27, 2020 Did Forest or Leeds ever officially say they were after Wells ?

Swede Posted January 27, 2020 Report Share Posted January 27, 2020 I am not so sure he'll be happy to leave West London all of a sudden to up sticks and be told to get down to Bristol. So we lose a first choice captain and midfielder and gain a forward who has settled into a season long loan in London who doesn't want to be here. I am not sure it will end good.

It may not start well but I think he'd change his mind if he found he liked the City and got off to a flying start. Coming from London to Bristol is a big change but it's also relaxing for many. End of the day he won't sign if he's not happy coming here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have to be pretty exceptional if they're really young for them to make an impact at our level don't they? The best young ones are generally being kept by their clubs it seems.

Surely he is a better goalscoring striker than Weimann. I don't really see Weimann as an out and out striker like Wells. Weimann more a support striker or wide forward. EDIT. Ahh you're a Leeds fan?

I doubt very much that Burnley would have called him back from QPR if there wasn't genuine interest from us. Also a lot of well respected Lancs reporters have stated we are after him so there must be some truth in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The hand of RO'D Posted January 27, 2020 Report Share Posted January 27, 2020 As stated in various articles, we are both far apart in our valuations. Burnley are being firm on their asking price and we are a few million off at this point. Burnley always considered recalling him from his loan for their second half of the season so that has no bearing on if he will be sold. As far as I'm aware there has been no talks of including JB in the deal, however Dyche is a big admirer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What would you rather then? People don't talk about rumours until they officially are announced? I know for some reason you think social media is unreliable, but it's really not the case.
