Alexandre Mendy (transfer rumour)

[Eric gates hair]

I’d much rather have Stansfield on loan than Mayenda as first choice, but on the flip of that I’d much rather Mayenda as first choice than some random PL U21 player who hasn’t kicked a ball in senior football.

I’d rather have his aunt , Lisa up front .

 

[Hongkongphooey]

Surely , surely , they can’t think they can do another season with no striker.

Surely.

Somebody will be along soon with the , but we have 3 stock answer

 

[Drexl]

It’s alright, our strikers currently on the books scored…

*checks notes

…3 goals between them last season, we don’t need a new one.

 

[Hot Since 82]

He cost 7m didn’t he?

Thought to be less than £4M.

 

[Vauxie]

Speakman owns nothing, for a start..

He owns KLD though

2, Burstow had 1

2, Burstow had 1

And Burstow needed a deflection from a yard out

 

[G Force]

Think that’s unfair tbf, he definitely can make it at a much higher level than League 2.

But he absolutely shouldn’t be leading the line in the Championship yet.

Agree

Mayenda certainly has potential, although feel a loan or as a number 3 that will get minutes without the pressure would be best

We should be signing 2 strikers this summer. Can’t believe a few days before the season our options are still only Rusyn, Hemir and Mayenda

 

[Nelson!]

Thought to be less than £4M.

Best I can find is £4.3m initial payment, with another £1.3m to be paid later.

£7m is what Leeds are rumored to have offered this summer.

 

[Sid]

Yeah 100%. Likes of Boro will probably have 4 or 5 half decent centre forwards this season, we could have none. That Lath for them 18 goals from 36 games last season, how the fuck do they find these players but we can't.

We could have bought Simms but preferred to spend the cash by taking punts on Hemir, Rusyn and Mayenda.

 

[kingkeane]

Well, let's face it. If Regis hadn't have gotten his former club relegated, there's a good chance we could have still been looking for a Head Coach to go alongside the never-ending striker hunt!

They like to give the impression of a Swan, seen to be calm and graceful on top of the water, whilst flapping like fuck underneath it!


Wonder where he's going then?

Well he's not playing for his current club again.

 

[RGZ]

He was canny mate but it's completely unfair on him to be our main man going into the new season. Le Bris said as much as the weekend.

i agree

 

[Hongkongphooey]

And Burstow needed a deflection from a yard out

Celebrated like he scored from 30 yards out

 

[Teed]

2, Burstow had 1

Word on the street is, he's coming back on loan.

Scored 2 mate.

 

[magnum]

Jobe has to start upfront, Mayenda needs a league one loan,no way he's ready to lead the line In the championship.

 

[G Force]

Behave

The comments from Dodds that Jobe could become a striker might be coming true at this rate

 

[Hongkongphooey]

Behave, even Speakman isn't that thick, oh had on.....

 

[Vauxie]

Celebrated like he scored from 30 yards out

Ball hit him and rebounded in didn't it

My guess is they’d have expected Mendy to be here already, and would try to get a good PL loan on deadline day as a lot of those are sorted out late in the window.

The Mendy situation is obviously unusual, but they need to be 100% confident he is coming eventually if they’re going to keep waiting.
