Will 2,958 Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 On Assombalonga think it'll drag on for sometime, they will want to sell to a prem club but he may want to come here. Why would he want to come here over a prem club? I'm fairly confident he wouldn't be a starter at Watford, so there's that. Would he start at Burnley, maybe, maybe not. He'd be a definite first teamer here and we may be willing to go all out on wages (which would definitely be bigger than Burnley's with their wage cap) Link to post Share on other sites
Smogzilla 7,385 Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 Can't discount the promise of 1st team football. I still think we've got a chance even if Watford are in for him Link to post Share on other sites

I still think we've got a chance even if Watford are in for him I see it more like... if they get Britt then Deeney will move on (can't remember the premier team interested) so he's more likely if first team football Link to post Share on other sites

If Deeney is actually moving on that changes the situation a bit. Here's hoping big Troy decides against a move again Link to post Share on other sites
Humpty 3,246 Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 Deeney is going to Leicester Link to post Share on other sites
Uwe 3,543 Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 Deeney is going to Leicester I knew some premier league team were after him but couldn't remember who (For some reason I thought it was West Brom) but he'd suit Leicester more That opens the door for Britt although I think it's a big step down from Deeney myself Link to post Share on other sites
Dan1234 1,048 Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 I don't rate Deeney at all tbh. Another one of those players that are probably too good for championship not good enough for prem, plus hes a massive prat. Link to post Share on other sites

teapot 4 Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 twitter saying 15m bid from Watford for Assomabolonga accepted by forest Anyone reputable? If Britt is going elsewhere, I'd hope we are looking for people like Ings and Callum Wilson as well as Afobe Callum Wilson is well beyond us, and he's still out after his second cruciate ligament injury.

Snowblind 1,711 Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 Bit unfair Dan... the lad has been full of remorse since coming out of prison, has repaid the faith Watford showed in him during his time behind bars and has said it was exactly the kind of smackdown back into reality he needed in order to get his life back on track. He came from a difficult upbringing and made some very poor life decisions - as I'm sure many of us have - but the important fact of the matter is that he's learnt from those mistakes and become a very reliable and well mannered guy since. Does a lot of community work, especially with young people from disadvantaged and charities. The Troy Deeney of 2017 is a vastly different man from the boy that got jail time 5 years ago, and he should be applauded for that. Link to post Share on other sites
