nunthorpered 1,920 Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 I don't get the hype with Gyokeres. Seems solid but not the stupid prices thats been banded about everywhere. Seems massively overhyped to me. Tailed off spectacularly towards the back end of the season too 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Tailed off spectacularly towards the back end of the season too All depends on the price for me, hes young still with his best years ahead i think he would be a really good fit for wilders system also he scored 4 in his last 8 games of the season so wouldnt exactly say he tailed off Link to post Share on other sites
2plus2 290 Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 (edited) Here's hoping Spence has a screamer today, on one of the biggest stages. There's a real opportunity for us to add £5m+ to his price tag on one game alone. 4 Link to post Share on other sites

He is certainly someone I would like to see in a Boro shirt. He excelled in all he did at the Riverside………. bar score that is, so he would slot in seamlessly 🤣 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe in that game yeah, but for me he's not even top 5/6 in the league imo. Been hyped up to massive levels. you'd have thought he's the next Batistuta the way some of the fans have been going on Link to post Share on other sites

People definitely need to taper their expectations of the quality of the likes of Gyokeres/Twine or whoever else we bring in. Wilder needs to consider what type of strike force he wants to go with. I'd personally love a Gyokeres/Twine partnership as I think it'd compliment well. I do have some concerns on Wilder in this department though. Link to post Share on other sites

Oh yeah not arguing that he's a very good player, but hes being billed as the second coming for quite a few. Maybe he is in relation to the crap we've had who knows 😂 Link to post Share on other sites

Been hyped up to massive levels. you'd have thought he's the next Batistuta the way some of the fans have been going on He was the 7th highest scoring striker in the league this season, and most of those ahead of him were signed for significant sums. Brereton Diaz cost £7m, Mitrovic cost £22-27m, Grant cost £15m, Solanke cost £19m. Piroe, Weimann and Gyokeres were all signed for £1-2m. Obviously if we were to sign Gyokeres, he'd cost significantly more than that now, but most of those above him are even further out of our price range. Link to post Share on other sites
p_mards 1,363 Posted May 29, 2022 Share Posted May 29, 2022 I think Nottingham Forest getting promoted is best for us. It should help drive up the price for Spence, they’ll likely be a bigger promotion threat than Huddersfield next season and I’d fancy our chances of transfer targets picking us ahead of a Championship level Huddersfield, rather than a Championship level Forest. 3 Link to post Share on other sites

I think he will stay but I imagine there will be other offers on the table for him. I would have thought he'd be nailed on to replace Fernandinho at Man City. Link to post Share on other sites
