Can’t imagine many (if any) teams would these days.If that price tag is true then we might as well forgot about it, zero chance we spend that much on a 30 year old.

Is Peruzzi’s signal still lost around Bermuda way?I heard Peruzzi's jet was picking him up whilst on his way to be signed.
Against a better side that Mayenda miss would likely be punished, mindWe managed ok on Saturday, we've gone on this long I'm sure we can struggle through another few games![]()
I mean West Ham have just paid 27 million for a 31 year old.Can’t imagine many (if any) teams would these days.

We’d be waiting until Leicester sign a couple of strikers I think?You must be logged on to see external linksShould be all over this.
This is also a good indication of how difficult it is to get strikers through the door though. Leicester wanting to buy before they let Cannon go, that Leicester signing might not happen until deadline day. If any club is willing to wait that long to get a player in it's us, but its a gambleYou must be logged on to see external linksShould be all over this.
Sorry, I meant championship teamsI mean West Ham have just paid 27 million for a 31 year old.
Fair enough, market is mental atm, especially for strikers.Sorry, I meant championship teams
I agree. Although think they're supposed to be bringing someone in in the next day or so.This is also a good indication of how difficult it is to get strikers through the door though.

They signed him when in the Championship as a fringe player though, can’t see his wages being that high really. Most clubs in this division should be able to cover them in full like.Think pretty much whole championship would take Cannon and I imagine Lec would want his wages covered in full would be ideal like.
Would you pay 4million for a 30 year old untried in English football from the French second tier? I wouldn’t. I suspect this may become a ‘rising to’ to keep face similar to Hjelde but in reality is much less eg we get up to the premier league we at extra.I mean West Ham have just paid 27 million for a 31 year old.
I would if my recruitment team had identified him as number one target to solve our forward issues from the end of last season. Otherwise, what’s the point of having them?Would you pay 4million for a 30 year old untried in English football from the French second tier? I wouldn’t.

If it meant we were promoted to the PL with him in the team yes, which is the only way it would ever reach 4 million.Would you pay 4million for a 30 year old untried in English football from the French second tier?

Having them as a target for one fee and another that’s more than double isn’t the same. I reckon we could get less of a gamble and better value elsewhere for that fee and rightly we’ll be exploring that. I wouldn’t imagine he was number one target either, he was just a good value one previously where others became inflated/chose elsewhere.I would if my recruitment team had identified him as number one target to solve our forward issues from the end of last season.

How much do you think is a fair starting fee in comparison to other options?If it meant we were promoted to the PL with him in the team yes, which is the only way it would ever reach 4 million.
It’s got nothing to do with me what I think is fair, time is running out so we need to get a deal done. I would say 2 million up front would be more than fair though, then variables which could hit up to 4 is a drop in the ocean if we were to get promoted while he is under contract.Having them as a target for one fee and another that’s more than double isn’t the same.

If he wasn’t number one target then I doubt we’d still be here after two monthsHaving them as a target for one fee and another that’s more than double isn’t the same.

Struggle through ffs.
What sort of ambition is it to "Struggle through" or "plod on"?
