Sesko to Newcastle. Watkins to stay at Villa. Mateta to stay at Palace. Vlahovic not suited to Amorim's tactics. Jackson perfect for Amorim's tactics but United fans have already scuppered that move - trust me, he'd have been the best foil for Cunha and Mbuemo.
Why is nobody talking about Ivan Toney? He's a great fit, Prem proven and a good age so as not to get in the way of Obi's development. Knows Mbeumo's game well. Also likely to be £40m at absolute most.
No brainer for me. .

I'd have Watkins every day of the week. Experienced EPL striker, knows where the goal is. Seems to have a good head on his shoulders. Handy with the assists as well. If it was a decent price, I'd be all over him. (No innuendos, Danny)
We need to get past this obsession with age.

I didn't realise it was a supporter obsession - I thought it was the (well documented) club's vision to buy young players with potential to save a few quid?

Sesko for me. He has the ability and the presence to fit Amorim's system. 40m is way too much to pay for a player 29-30 years old. That's a poor investment.

Sesko for me but go and get Tony too. They guy will score goals. Leads the line will help the younger players espec Rasmus if he stays plus he rarely misses a pen.

Maybe fans have scuppered that move because his 12% conversion rate isn't good enough.

Toney would fit very well in United and would work well with Sancho in destroying whatever positive vibes that's still remaining in the dressing room further. I'm fully supportive if he moves to you guys ;)

Do we even know Toney is anything like the Toney who left the UK to play in the sand! Plus is the hunger even still there, I would have said yes when he left Brentford, but now would not touch him.
Still I would go Mateta or Watkins, if Isaak not coming…LOL.

Wouldn't touch toney with a barge pole.

That's worked really well so far hasn't it spenno? Sometimes you need to make an exception. Rasmus was signed as he was seen to have potential, we don't need potential, we need a finished article.

I'm not defending it AJH, just going along with it.
It's all well and good buying potential, but you need to buy players for the here and now too, which we haven't, and we've overpaid for the potential too.

We need some experienced players in, players that been there done it and still can.
I’m sure we got plans in place, after all RA knows he needs GK, CB, Mid, striker, so sure they have options A, B&C, maybe 2 of those best we can hope for in this window, for me that’s a striker and CB…. love to say GK but can’t see anyone buying the Clown, so we maybe stuck with him for a while.
