We can guess, but we don’t know We don’t know which players we might be able to entice. According to Bruce, we were pretty close to signing Samatta until other interest forced the price up. That shows that, for the right player, we might be able to find the money, as I’m assuming Samatta would have commanded a high price anyway. If there are players like that available, then that’s a route I’d rather go down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluesteel Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 Murphy just joins a long list on the loan hall of fame along with Hector, Connor Wickham, Ben Marshall, Kenwyne Jones, Scott Carson, Bischoff, Broomes, David Johnson. We sign them, they become one of the players of the season then the supporters hope for a permanent signing thats unlikely to happen. Does that happen everywhere or do some clubs supporters just accept its over . Izzy Brown next? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what our situation is regarding FFP as of now, taking into account the ground sale, Joao’s sale and the Covid complications As I mentioned, if we were that close to bringing in Samatta, it’s unlikely that he’d have been cheap.

Monk and coaches know him well, can imagine he would cost a fair bit though. If we could get him I think he could be a very useful player to have. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New broom and all that... What's point in saying this if you won't go into further detail, especially when it's not an swfc signing? It's screams look at me!! Up there with the people who say "I recommended this person 2 months ago and he's now really good/signed for us" Do you want a medal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree Jutkiewicz top end of our budget, but exactly what we need IMO. As for attraction, hopefully Monk/Beattie may hold some sway. That said, no links so either Monk/Beattie have different a different opinion of him or Birmingham not open to offers. Probably not on the best of terms with them anyway given the protracted acquisition of Beattie. Edited August 30, 2020 by striker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope we have stopped doing that. Chris Martin is available and would be an asset to our squad, even though we are heading towards a more dynamic/pacy team. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
