I've said before the only criticism and it is harsh but he needs more end product . In recent games he's had a chance to shoot or fire it across and hasn't but those things he will get better at as he progressesRudoni has been player of the season but it is MVE that is ready made for the Premier League. Got that natural athleticism you need to survive in that league.
Deffo but will help playing with a striker who has better movement than Simms. I like Simms but his movement in the box is incredibly poor.I've said before the only criticism and it is harsh but he needs more end product .

I get that but recently he's been in attacking situations where he could've shot first time , or drilled a low ball acrossDeffo but will help playing with a striker who has better movement than Simms. I like Simms but his movement in the box is incredibly poor.
One of 4 players nailed on to start in the PL (other 3 being Rudi, Grimes and Wright)
We would need Grimes if we reached the Prem. Rarely loses the ball and has a brilliant passing range. His goal yesterday showed how sharp and quick he is. Got the ball and stuck it in the net before they even had a chance to react.Agree on 3 of those but Grimes doesn't have the athleticism to play midfield in prem plus we won't have much of the ball. There's a reason he's never played above champ level.
Id add Dovin as prem ready from what I've seen and the demands on being a ball playing goalie.

Let's be realistic. Most of our present players would struggle. I'd be looking at several upgrades in other positions before Grimes.I agree he is good at what he does but he will struggle to do that in prem. Everyone is bigger faster stronger and the midfield athleticism is the biggest difference. We will need players to break up the transitions.
Jack Rudoni, Gustavo Hamer, COH (eventually).Have we signed a better player in the last 10 years ?
Honestly what a consummate professional, gives it all every game , plays every game and just seems a lovely genuine lad .
Will be very hard to keep hold of him if we don't go up
YepJack Rudoni, Gustavo Hamer, COH (eventually).
I'm not disagreeing with you how good MVE is, but he's not the best player we've signed in 10 years. He's been up and down and had some poor games for us, but since going back to a back 4 and having Saka ahead of him he's really shone through. I really think we need promotion this season to keep hold of him

Vik is the best player we've signed in the last 10yrs.
Not only because of his goals but the money we got for him helped bring in the likes of Van Ewijk, Wright etc.
It will be nowhere near that amountHopefully vik is sold early in the summer and we can use the 8-12m(?) and get some targets in
He's not an £80-120m striker. I'd love him to go for as much as possible, the bigger budget FL has to work with in the summer. But let's be honest, he's not an £80m player. In comparison, Man City payed £51m for Haaland and Newcastle payed £60m for Isak. And he's not better than or worth more than either of those 2. I'd love for Vik to go for £80m+, but in reality I think he'll go for half of that. I'll happily come back here in 2 months time and eat my own words IF he goes for big money. I just don't see it.Hopefully vik is sold early in the summer and we can use the 8-12m(?) and get some targets in
I would really question Wright as being at that level, On his day he’s a top Championship striker but I can’t see him as a starter in a Premiership team unless his performances were week in week out similar to Sunderland.One of 4 players nailed on to start in the PL (other 3 being Rudi, Grimes and Wright)
Closer to 3.5 million apparently.Hopefully vik is sold early in the summer and we can use the 8-12m(?) and get some targets in
Both of those deals were three years ago though. Haaland's was a release clause. Isak's was not but his release clause was £75m.He's not an £80-120m striker.

Personally see him around £40-50m. Like I say, I will happily come back to this thread in 2- 3 months time and eat humble pie when he goes for £80m+, I just don't see it. Even if 2 or 3 clubs start a bidding war, I still don't see his price going above £60m.Both of those deals were three years ago though. Haaland's was a release clause. Isak's was not but his release clause was £75m.
He could definitely go for a similar figure to those, and if there's enough competition even get towards his release clause.
As a LW however he can isolate a full back and really damage many teams, I wouldnt have him as the first choice number 9. I’d be tempted to sign a new oneI would really question Wright as being at that level, On his day he’s a top Championship striker but I can’t see him as a starter in a Premiership team unless his performances were week in week out similar to Sunderland.
