Zian Flemming - possible buy?

20/21 olds will either be expensive or not up to it realistically

You’ve got to get them younger

Younger doesn't count as homegrown in your 25 man squad though.

Need to be just about to turn or be 21 to count towards that part.

We need to replace a bunch to have a full 25 man squad next season.

As likely we will only have Ballard, Mundle and 09(assuming we sell Alese/Patto) . So will need to sign 5 unless we resign Cirkin and Moore.

I'd steer well clear, another Andy Gray.

Andy Gray wouldn’t score ten premier league goals regardless of who he played for. As an alternative to Brobbey Fleming is an awkward and hard working radge with some goalscoring ability. I wouldn’t want to pay big bucks but he’d be okay.

10 Prem goals this season for Burnley, worth a punt? Will be 28 when the season starts, could be a good backup for Brobbey.

Admittedly haven't watched a great deal of him, but someone who can get double figures in a relegated team must have something about them.

This. We should be well about the likes of Fleming

Yeah, fair point. Daft comparison really.

I think it came from a perception that he wouldn't do as well for us as he has for Burnley. Look at that, it did come from somewhere.
 
I’ve not once seen him play and thought I’d seen anything to suggest he could step up from being anything other than what he has been this season, solid no from me.

Wouldn’t take a single player from Burnley, I’d maybe have 1 or 2 from Wolves though.

He's done very well in a struggling side. He'd a solid if unspectacular signing

I agree, from what I’ve seen he’s a good finisher and he’s also a decent hold up player.
Could be our version of Chris Wood

Just look at Delap, did well at Ipswich and now he’s looked shit most the times he’s played this season.

Probably cos he’s always coming back from an injury

You don’t need a full squad. You can use younger players. The limitation is max non homegrown. Not a minimum homegrown

Buying filler at age 21 is pointless

I quite like this lad, and I think he's worth a punt if we let Wilson go...
