If there was nothing close then Warnock would not have answered how he did; he'd have just said there was absolutely nothing in it. The Argentinian links seem confident that a transfer fee has been agreed, and after Warnock's interview, I heard nothing to suggest that this was inaccurate - he was more focused on the fee not being anywhere near the reported level of £5.9 million (including all clauses). It wouldn't surprise me if he's on a plane over here ahead of having a medical and signing. I agree with this. If it was in the balance he would not have reacted this way. If it’s rubbish he would have said it’s rubbish. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
CrazyL 2,565 Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 I definitely hope we sign Payero rather than Michael Smith. Michael Smith is such a common name and Payero is exotic. Even though Smith scored more goals last season than any of our players. Payero just sounds really good. Although I’m joking I’m actually not - I really hope we sign him even though I’m 52 and I’ve seen it all before. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Because even though I’m getting on a bit I’m still a sucker for a foreign signing even though I’ve never heard of him. If you need further explanation DM me 👍🏻 Link to post Share on other sites

RiversideRed 1,216 Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 Hopefully @diggerlad07or @Lurker can find something out about Payero. There has to be some truth in it surely? Too many media outlets have reported it and Warnock didn't shut it down. Just laughed it off and said we wouldn't be paying 5.8m for anyone. He didn't want to give anything away. With Saville gone is Mpanzu or someone else lined up to replace him. Link to post Share on other sites

If you need further explanation DM me 👍🏻 Not exactly clear what Smith has to do with Payero, really. Don't think one is in anyway related to the other. Today's signing of Ikpeazu might have pushed Smith down the list though. Link to post Share on other sites
Smogzilla 7,385 Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 I'm sure Lurker said he was expecting an update today, probably ruined the surprise now with all the news thats come out 😄 Link to post Share on other sites
BearSmog 1,382 Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 I'm not excited by Martin Payero in the slightest.. The last Martin we signed was Cranie (previously Braithwaite) and the last South American was De Pena.. no thanks 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Just out of interest, who would be scoring the goals in that side? Who knows. Bolasie over the course of a season should be good for double figures. Tav should be kicking on to those sort of figures aswell. The other 2 are mahoosive gambles but I expect Ikpeazu to get at least 30 and Payero to score at least 12 free kicks. 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites
