Will 2,958 Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 No way we'll get Bowen like, too good for us especially if we're skint Suppose it depends on whether Hull are even more skint. I imagine we have some money to spend regardless of what Alan Nixon says, and investing in a young player like Bowen would make sense. Someone with some real sell on value. 11 goals and 3 assists from the right wing this season. That's the kind of player we should be spending out money on. And Hull might be tempted to rake in some cash if we can also sweaten then deal with loan player or two. Maybe even Fletcher in a cash + player deal. I wish we'd get him but there's serious prem interest and interest from Leeds. Sky sports yesterday said Spurs want him and could cost around 20 mill Maybe Ollie Watkins is an alternative to Bowen if Prem clubs are queuing up. Watkins will go for well north of £10m when he does. Link to post Share on other sites
LinoJo3 3,098 Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 Why didn’t we go for Bowen in the summer, it’s just bizarre that a player who had obvious talent seemed to get ignored, and now there’s a stampede. I’m hoping we did and got turned down or they wanted stupid money or something, he was such an obvious choice to replace Traore and can’t see why he wouldn’t have wanted the move.

Downsouth 6,176 Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 Jermain Defoe heading to Rangers on an 18 month loan Will be good signing for Rangers and will fit in very well. Must admit the speculation is quite interesting so far, especially the Ipswich link. Link to post Share on other sites
LinoJo3 3,098 Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 Happy to see us looking at the likes of Lowe and Maja. Sometimes those signings are more exciting than the big money howson/besic type buys. Link to post Share on other sites

Hes quality AND exactly what we need. Pls Boro pls With Portsmouth looking likely to get promotion I seriously doubt that they would let him go at this stage, their fans would go mental! DS.

Jamie-H 1,322 Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 Lambert's denied the story of Crockstede and Leadboots said they can't afford it. The local write up said this about the 2 players wages "Gestede believed to be on 30k a week and Leadbitter on similar terms are simply out of Towns reach". Lambert also spoke on Knudsen said it isn't inevitable he leaves but if a player's looking elsewhere it's difficult, speculated there's interest in him from Kobenhavn and another club in Denmark not much sign of real movement there. 60k a week for Crockstede and Leadbitter, what a world.

Changing Times 12,220 Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 Jermain Defoe heading to Rangers on an 18 month loan Probably a better move for him. I'm not sure he'd have been an ideal fit for us and if Pulis is looking at Traore and/or another proper winger type then he'll want a more physical presence up front than Defoe. You'd also have to think Defoe is on decent money even at this stage of his career. Link to post Share on other sites
Tom 2,492 Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 I admire the unwavering dedication to saying 'Crockstede' despite it not being funny the first time. Link to post Share on other sites
