Played most of last season up top for Sheff Utd in a front 2. And I imagine Wilder sees him as a 2nd striker as opposed to RWB or CM. Wilder said the work to sign Gibbs White for Sheff Utd was mainly done during his time prior to our game v them last season Link to post Share on other sites

Foogle 2,078 Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 Still not sure on Gyokeres, it's another case of us buying a striker at their highest value, then we'll be shocked when he can't repeat his form. Fair enough if we're spending 5m on him but 10m is too much of a risk for one successful championship season for me. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Mfcdanny 770 Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 Isn’t it the same situation with us with Spence and Jones? Both had a decent season but fans saying we shouldn’t accept anything less than 15 million. Coventry fans are basically doing the exact same thing but getting called deluded…. And I’d say strikers generally go for more than right backs do. that’s not me saying I’d pay that for him but just trying to look at it from a different perspective 11 Link to post Share on other sites

TeaCider24 12,394 Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 (edited) £8m would be a fair price for his career so far, and even that's probably on the high side. But it's also not a price that would leave you happy to sell him as a Coventry fan, so I can understand why so many are pushing the £16m angle, far more than he's worth and it would allow a rebuild.

I'm not calling them deluded for wanting that much, I'm saying we shouldn't fall into the trap again of spending massive sums on strikers. Link to post Share on other sites
