TheEnchanter Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 Leo Bonatini from Wolves anyone? He went on a short loan to Forest last season and also 15-20 games in Portugal. He was a good member of the promoted Wolves side and is only 26 years old. Wages will be high but wonder if he'd be available on loan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd take him here on a 2 year deal, very clever striker, nasty to play against. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems to be a rumour that is going around. He was poor when I watched him for Malaga, but you suspect he was better than that A bit like Kachunga and Windass, perhaps lost his way If he’s the guy we want, go and get him now, he’d jump at the chance, and it’s the type of player who’d fit in with those we’ve already signed. Same with that Simmonds lad, he was one that we wanted to add to the group, but apparently there was an issue about wages, so we decided to move onto Leko. Well, with the season fast approaching, maybe we should rethink that one as well. We are struggling to move on, so why not see if we can reach a compromise He’s an academy player, there cannot be too much of a disparity between what he wants, and what we want to pay We managed to reach a deal with his mate Fizz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonesy87shef Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 I’m bored and going to throw out a random name. Even if it’s a resounding no gives us something to talk about. I know we should be aiming younger long term but as a free agent I wonder if Gaël Clichy is worth a shout and if he’d realistically play championship football. Just turned 35 still feel he could be of use on a 1 year deal if finances permitted. I think left and right wing back are still very weak areas for us. Just led Istanbul Başakşehir to their first ever league title in a league dominated by Besiktas, Fenerbarche and Galatasary. Played 30 games last season, 25 year before and 31 before that. Quoted as saying he’d love to return to England. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s quicker & more powerful than the other two. Martin is the better all-round player. Bastrd has struggled in English football. I’d rank them in order Martin, Zohore, then Bastrd. That said, depends on the market we’re shopping in, my prefs would be any of: Martin - free Davis - loan Bonne or Akpom - buy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheEnchanter Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 Macauley Bonne would be a great buy for someone. Genuinely think he did superb in a tough situation at Charlton. To come from Non league and score 11 in 33 in his first ever season at this level. I think for the price he'd be a steal for someone like Preston who'd probably buy and develop him into a £10M striker in the space of a couple of seasons. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Under normal circumstances, without the points deduction, and a decent roster of strikers, yes we could afford to leave things until the end of the window, but now we cannot. We have to have all the main pieces in place as soon as there are points to be played for. An additional young centre back, or a fleet footed young striker, those loans can maybe wait, but a proper target man can’t You might just have answered your own question as to why we paid a fee for Windass.
