Borodane 6,246 Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 Burnley, Sheffielu Utd, WBA and Fulham all badly need goals. Could also add Newcastle and Wolves to that list. They all have money and Britt isn't the worst investment. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I’ve always made my opinion of Britt clear, he was never going to live up to a £15m price tag. I honestly think we’re lucky to get a fee so any decent sum is a bonus. I bet we'll have told his agent, that he needs to find a club that is willing to pay, or we will be triggering the extra year (if that exists) to protect our investment. That effectively means that we have a decent championship striker with 18 months on his contract who consitently gets into double figures. I reckon that could get us at least 4 million.

RiversideRed 1,216 Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 I think Sheffield United is a strong possibility along with some random team from the Middle East. Could also see Fulham going for him. Don't think anyone else in the Premiership would go for him mind. Link to post Share on other sites

A lot of championship forwards get moves to the Prem when they consitently get into double figures every season. Look at the managers Britt has had here: Monk (clueless), Pulis (attack gives him seizures), Woodgate (abject) and now Warnock who likes a different kind of striker. It's not like Britt has had managers that play to his strength. Link to post Share on other sites

That's a definite possibility. The team needs to use as much leverage as it has against all options. Link to post Share on other sites

Don't know where to and for how much yet though Any idea on whether it will be done quickly or will be one for later in the window? Link to post Share on other sites

Fletcher could have a recurrence of his injury, not improbable that Watmore could also get injured and Roberts looks to be on his way or not in the managers thoughts. Browne is back but is a bit of an unknown entity at the moment. We need goals. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Christ, Pulis even played him on the wing. Is arguably better when he has a partner up front or a supporting number 10. He is a good finisher in and around the box, so that's where he needs to be and not having to drop 30 yards to flick on high balls lumped up the pitch. Link to post Share on other sites
