Unless Sarr decides he is suddenly a midfielder who can control and pass a football I don’t see why we need another winger. No criticism at all of him but how does he fix what we all saw today and most of this season? Now, if it’s Sarr and two or three more top players then fair enough. Because we need the other players; in central midfield and defence much more than we need a winger.

Watford fans think it’s happening.
Tweets started in France and picked up momentum with other sources allegedly

If true there must be others to follow surely?

Send Bert to Watford instead of Turkey and swap him for Sarr and a mini-wheelbarrow of cash.

Sarr would make no sense and would smack of panic buying. I'd rather use the £30m or whatever it is and get a proper fucking manager.

Sarr wouldn’t be my choice personally, another 7 stone weakling who plays in a position we don’t use seems pretty pointless, if we want an inconsistent winger who only turns up every 4 or 5 games we could have just kept Traore.

Here-we-go Romano has tweeted it so I'd say this is looks likely now.

Strange signing.

Analysing the squad and this is what Lange has come up with ? A right winger
Are they all on the same page for the supposed way we play
I like Sarr he's quality player and he scored that amazing goal against West Brom this season but whats the plan here Lange ?

Vinnie,  who are these four players that you know that we are after? Third time of asking now.



Sangare was one (pre his new contract), we’ve registered interest in Tielemens but he’s waiting to see if Arsenal make a move, Gallagher is another but waiting to see what Chelsea want to do. No idea on 4th. Outside of this I’m sure more is on cards/enquired I’ve just only heard of these

Vinnie, any rumblings from our owners?

Think we may now have a busy end to this window. Personally if we don’t sign a new bloody top CM then I’m going to be pissed.
Taking my lad (6) to his first game Sunday (guy who sits next t me is away so  got his ST) and I’m dreading it

We are massively lacking in the middle. No presence. But if the tactic is just welly the ball long from the back then we could have Zidance, Pirlo, Xavi, Iniesta etc and it wouldn’t matter. The constant long ball lumping up tactic has to stop.

Thanks. Let's hope one of them comes off.

€25-28m + 15% of any future sale from what I've read which seems reasonable. Would seem strange if it's the only signing before the end of the window but I'm not going to turn my nose up at a winger who scores 1 in 4 every games for Watford.
