West Ham or Brighton would be much much better for him and his career, Both in Europe. Bournemouth got away with it last year and with any luck get relegated this time. There 25M is as good as anyone's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deadredfred Posted July 4, 2023 Report Share Posted July 4, 2023 TL;DR Don't bother watching that. West Ham fan likes the look of Alex Scott. Happy that West Ham are linked. The end. 5 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazred Posted July 4, 2023 Report Share Posted July 4, 2023 Still being compared to Grealish, it's so lazy. Alex has more facets to his game than playing with his socks down! I do wonder if the average fan of West Ham for example actually know what they would be getting. He's not a winger. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He also failed to mention the possibility that their interest in Scott may have came from ex Bristol City players Moyes and Rob Newman, which seems a pretty obvious link. I dunno, if someone's gonna put a video out like that, at least get the facts right in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he's a Grealish+ His style is very similar however he has defensive attributes that Grealish doesn't have. Scott could play as a winger but I think his attributes would possibly be wasted there. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched a video the other week by a young City fan re Jason Knight. Fair play to the lad (not trying to sound condescending) for doing a video, it’s more than I could do, but it was 8 mins of saying very little other than his age, what positions he can play, then contradicting the initial view that he didn’t think he was the right player, and then going full circle. In summary it told me nothing about the type of player at all. Do they not plan what they’re gonna say? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this goes some way to showing what an exciting talent he is. It's hard to put a "the next..." type label on him. Moves like Grealish on the ball, combatative and intelligent in midfield like a Gerrard or Bellingham but hard to make direct comparions to other players out there. Versatile but not a classic utility type either. He's fairly unique as a young up and coming English player. Worth every penny for whoever coughs up the cash IMO. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You watch Man City and his defensive work has been superb. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A podcast I really rate finally got to talking about Alex Scott in a 'suggested transfers' video, they spoke of the 'exciting left winger at Bristol'. Almost vomited.

AshtonRobin21 Posted July 4, 2023 Report Share Posted July 4, 2023 More money for Wolves from the Nathan Collins (Brentford) deal. Talk of a £35m bid from Napoli for Max Kilman as well. They now need to replace Neves, Moutinho, Collins and Adama Traore. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Killman also heading off it seems which would bank over £100m (in total) in what increasingly looks like a fire sale. Wonder how much FFP s**t they are in. A long season ahead for Wolves I think.

NcnsBcfc Posted July 5, 2023 Report Share Posted July 5, 2023 Well with the Rice deal appearing to be finally over the line between Arsenal and West Ham, hopefully the "reported" interest in Scott from the Hammers will either turn into something a bit more solid, or they will move onto other options. The next week or so should be a but more illuminating than the previous social media nonsense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taz Posted July 5, 2023 Report Share Posted July 5, 2023 Interestingly, probably due to my locality (30 minutes if that on a train into Stratford/London Stadium) I seem to have been getting a few snippets from fan pages on Facebook from West Ham supporters - also probably because it's linked my activity to City, not that they spy on you or anything...... Anyway, a few "groups" seem to think that they are very interested, with one I've just across a few minutes ago (but have scrolled past and now lost) saying that West Ham representives have spoken to Alex, and further movement was likely. Now I have no idea if there is anything in this, or how (un)reliable that particular group is, but they seem pretty sure that there is likely to be a bid put in, if it's not already happened. £22m was mentioned, but again, no idea if reliable. As I've said I've seen bits popping up a few times tonight, so will make sure if it happens again I'll screenshot, or link the source. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect that these guys are just supporters, like you and I, with as much knowledge regarding any potential transfer and fee as you and I. It’s always good to hear perspectives from supporters of other teams so I’ll welcome any updates you can supply but I will have pinch of salt near at hand when I read them!
