Box_Man Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 Really like the look of Sebastien Haller Young, quick tall mobile striker would probably cost serious cash to get him, would imagine lots watching him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kilbyj Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 If it was Danilo we were watching at those Porto games recently, bring him on. He looked like the beast we need in midfield and shut out Rooney et al at Wembley under difficult circumstances. But would he swap Europa League for our higher salary.... Must be a wind up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joelswfc Posted June 4, 2016 Author Share Posted June 4, 2016 Joel Ekstrand would be a great signing. Another ex Watford player. Bruno Manga would by my ideal centre back. Physical, pace and scores. Cardiff have already said they are willing to sell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ohgoditsjames Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 Would happily take some more players from Watford's promotion team, Vydra scored 15 goals for them even though he had Ighalo and Deeney scoring for fun too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheEnchanter Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 Not sure what sort of season he's had as I haven't focussed too much on him since the start, when Reading were doing well, but I always rate Daniel Williams for them. Big, strong, attacking CM who always has a good game against us. Wouldn't break the bank but he'd be a great fit in our team I think. 46 apps and 6 goals last season fin a poor Reading side.

Perhaps worth a shout? Can't recall how good is he, Watford had a rate team when they won promotion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheEnchanter Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 He had a big injury about a year ago I think which has obviously meant that he hasn't played as many as he would have done. Looks like he'd be a class signing and replacement for Loovens. Scram will know more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest wilyfox Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 Not a player I'm familiar with. I had to look him up. Therefore, no comment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a direct replacement for Loovens, Ekstrand is all right foot, so would more likely be back up for Lees Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohgoditsjames Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 (edited) Loovens has shown that he is still class however we do need to improve on defending from corners and free kicks, always have my heart in my mouth when the opposition are taking corners.

TheEnchanter Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 (edited) Not a direct replacement for Loovens, Ekstrand is all right foot, so would more likely be back up for Lees Competition for CB then, considering Turner and Sasso are leaving as well as you'd imagine Lachman and Dielna. We currently only have Lees and Loovens who are good enough so I could see us signing 2 more. Edited June 4, 2016 by TheEnchanter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F. Spiksley Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 Dawid Kownacki at Lech Poznan fits the bill for a young striker, he's tall, he is capped for Poland U19s. Appears to be well within our price range got a year left on his current contract. Imagine him and Joao in the squad alongside Hooper and FF.... Leaves us money to spare for the midfield beast we need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
