OxonOwl Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 Another striker? Just what we need. Unless we know we are offloading a few. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OxonOwl Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 Ah, I suppose he might be right midfield/wing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Jos playing wide forwards in a 3 towards the end of the season it makes sense. It wouldn’t surprise me if the club were actively trying to move on Rhodes and Winnall, I just hope we aren’t looking to cash in on Forestieri.

GEE Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 These types of signings always excite me, you never know what to expect, Benfica are a big club too. I just want us to bloody sign someone so we have bit more to talk about, close season is very long and boring Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owls-Fan Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 Ironic that we’ve had a thread all summer designated to SWFC transfer rumours and now we actually have one someone creates another thread about it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodys Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 Hopefully the only replacing in the striker dept is winnall and Rhodes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheffield_dave Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 (edited) Other than paranoia and assumptions, is there any reason people are flapping about Fessi? I've been away so may have legit missed something. If we're looking for players with a bit more pace and trickery to play either side of a front 3 then this makes sense. And it's only a loan. I could see this lad, Fessi, Joao and Matias competing for 2 such spots with Hooper, Nuhiu and Fletcher representing our options for the other more central role. If we're not going to be playing with wingers or wide midfielders then you can probably factor Wallace into this as well. If we can shift Rhodes and Winnall as well then to bring in a loan after losing 3 players doesn't give cause for concern about FF.

It’s all assumptions and guesswork at the moment, if we are loaning this player hopefully it’ll mean Rhodes, Winnall and Matias are leaving. Also he could be seen as a replacement for Wallace.

Guest Hillsborough Mole Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 Exactly - prob Wallace AND Matias. We really need to move out Matias - I'd sooner Wallace had stayed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we can offload that tw*t Rhodes I'd take Nora Batty up front. Or the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tudders Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 Just moved to Benfica from Vitoria Setubal. Maybe Freddy Venancio has recommended him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIG D Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 Would be an awesome signing IMO. Who is he? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
