TLF10 4,497 Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 Sorry to slightly derail this thread but can someone explain to me Wyke to Wigan move? I thought Wigan were skint and they aim was to simply survive in league 1 and not fall further down the football league pyramid. Yet they gone and signed a fairly sought after striker? Has something changed at Wigan that i have missed? Link to post Share on other sites

Brunners 7,982 Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 not that i don't believe you @diggerlad07but it's always a little suspect when twitter accounts post stuff like that with no source. How do we know he didn't just get that from you originally haha. Link to post Share on other sites
Borodane 6,301 Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 Is All things Erimus known as reliable or has he just liftet it off @diggerlad07from here? Link to post Share on other sites

Yes of course you could be correct but you would of thought they would have released my information when I posted the information on the 26th and not wait for 3weeks later. I obviously knew about south Americans from the screenshot I posted previously and lazaro's name was passed onto me. Didn't have any inkling on the Payero deal so club is obviously scouting the area thoroughly. Good Avenue to go down imo and something I've wanted the club to do for a long while. What's your take on it? Edited July 7, 2021 by diggerlad07 5 Link to post Share on other sites
BoroJake 2,345 Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 It’s good to see us looking abroad. Interesting to see whether this will happen even more once Warnock is gone Link to post Share on other sites

What's your take on it? My take on it is I think it's entirely plausible and I have no reason to doubt your info. We've clearly been scouting South America. Bringing in a couple of South Americans would do wonders for my optimism, I'll tell you that much. Not only does it show we are looking beyond NW, but it is a good way of potentially making a tidy profit in a season or two if they do well. Which will be a change from our old "buy high, let go for free" model. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Borodane 6,301 Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 Lazaro is more of a gamble. Only has 101 first team minutes to his name and some youth caps for Brazil u16 and u17. Can't come with a big prize. Plays as attacking midfielder. Link to post Share on other sites
RiversideRed 1,216 Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 I hope so, we should be looking in South America and Scandinavia. Link to post Share on other sites

Scandinavia is a little harder for WP reasons; the Argentine & Brazilian leagues are ranked far higher than any of the Scandinavian leagues, so you need to make up a lot more points in the other categories to qualify. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
