I wouldn't back Davis with an open goal from 3 yards.

At the right price Pukki might be a better bet than someone like King - marginally older at 30 with a very good scoring record at Norwich

I think Pukki would be a dreadful signing. On the face of it his stats look ok, but it’s mainly at a lower level with the exception of a very brief purple patch at the start of last season. He’s a Championship level player.

Twatter rumours we are in for Josh King who is even older than Wilson. Seems like Brentford might be pricing Watkins and Benrahma out of moves.

Hmm not much of an upgrade

Reading back a few pages people were preferring King to Wilson.

Depends on the price and importantly didn't Bournemouth pay comparatively silly mages to lots of players and have high wage to income ration?. Anyway not massively keen on either

Agreed. I would sooner have Dwight Gayle than Pukki.

Well teams worked him out pretty quickly seemingly

I hope there are lots of targets that are just not on the Twitter radar that we are after and will come good 🤔

Would you have that young lad Elliott on loan from Liverpool?

What? Surely Twitter is a single source of truth.

Looks as though he is a talented kid, but we have quite a few of our own i'd rather give a go to rather than develop Liverpool's.
