Both! - then we could flog El Ghazi :) I'm greedy

I would like to see an out and out wide player come in and then a young, creative type who could play wide and more centrally as an attacking midfielder, who could offer something a bit different in games.

Add a solid midfielder to play alongside Douglas and give us that solid base and things would be looking pretty decent.

I've done the same . Though as I wasn't logged in I have seen these hurtful comments.
I wish people would be kinder here exactly why I refrained from donating for so long.
I'll have to stay logged in so the comments making fun of me can be ignored.
Mate, I thought some of the comments on here towards you have been absolutely out of order.  Don't let other people's lack of manners put you off posting/visiting.

Out of the wingers linked I would prefer Buendia as he did very well at this level and in a struggling team. He is also likely to cost less than either Rashica or Benrama.

I would really rather we didn't get any more players from Brentford who have already had an entire stadiums worth of cash off us from Hogan, Konsa and now Watkins two of which have been poor value and one of which may or may not be a good signing. Lets not be too quick to give them another £30m.

Rashica has a very good record of creating and scoring in a good league, but is still more of a risk than Buendia. Is the right sort of signing though.

I imagine Buendia won’t cost less and Konsa will turn out to be an excellent signing

It should do. Can you try again please and let me know the result so I can pass it on to Martin?

I just added you and Ads to the ignore list, and I can still see your posts.  Purely for scientific purposes you understand!

Pretty sure Mods are exempt.

I just added a poster to my ignore list and it works

Relieved I Am.

How do it do it?  I can’t even meet them halfway on most things.

So - if we are going to get 1 of them, do people want Rashica or Benrahma?

Rashica.

We're too one paced at the moment and he has a bit of nip as well as everything else.

Definitely Rashica we need a dead moody Kosovan to wind a few opponents up.

Watkins hasn't even kicked a ball for us and he's being included in a group as to being poor value? Konsa was excellent after lockdown and at his age, we could have years of service from him.

No argument with Hogan, however. Different owners, different manager responsible for that one.

When you do it , do you then lose all the replies where someone has quoted a person you've ignored?

This going to lead to some very strange threads in my opinion, we'll at least for those of us that see everything.
