Jamie-H 1,322 Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 This confirms what Warnock said about Zohore that he's on a massive wage packet after promotion that alone might have ended our interest in him, even with a clear run up and funds to buy him permanently Sheff Wed can't match the wages he's on.

Jamie-H 1,322 Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 (edited) https://www.walesonline.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/who-cardiff-citys-mystery-striker-16686971 Ok so here's an interesting comparison to our situation, last year Warnock had a mystery striker target on a 2 million budget he wanted a tall and fast striker (he seems more keen on the tall part this time). They eventually unmasked his main target as Ibrahima Niane who scored 10 goals in 30 matches in Ligue 2 the season before. He couldn't get him in the end so settled on Isaac Vassell right at the end of the window. Between Sala/Niane/Sanogo he seems to love the French market for forwards, got to remember this striker position seems to have quite a bit of budget to it given the offer for Moore and wage packet of Sanogo I'm not sure how far that kind of money goes in the French market but I think it's a given we're looking in Europe right now because domestically nothing fits the bill financially. Waiting around doesn't seem like an option either given the reason for not signing Sanogo was that he wouldn't be fit until October. If his recruitment model here follows Cardiff after we get a big lump in he might target that pacey option as a 4th which might excite the people hoping we sign pacey wingers.

I think your right there. It’s clear he wants a Target Man (Moore, Zahore) and a pacey striker (Sanogo, Bonne). It’s going to be interesting these next few weeks, I can see us acting fast because if Britt or Fletch get injured we have no one... Bobby Wood is a player I’d look at, he’s mentioned in that article too. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 I think NW would be willing to move Britt or fletch on, I'm surprised that fletch at least hasn't been offered a deal that we know of, I'd hate to lose them both for nothing Link to post Share on other sites

Also he likes both of them, so I doubt it anyway. Link to post Share on other sites
sanddancer 1,964 Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 BORO need to prove they support the town and cough up four to six players Warnock wants and fast. I don’t just mean any player but those he named and not dross offloads from clubs we are competing against. I don’t want to read talk up of a player we had no intention to target but end up with. Act now or repent! Missing targets on and off the field seems to be a BORO trait almost in its DNA and it’s laying the club to rest. Do something, do it now! Link to post Share on other sites
