Odss of another signing before we go away must be dwindling..Perri in goal for America then, chance to change Farke's mind but if he has a mare...value drops further

We shafted ourselves on Summerville! He's destroying his career for money and we didn't include a sell-on fee when we sold him! I said at the time we were being shafted...

He had a 25M release clause that West Ham triggered

West Ham have made £150mil from 2 sales.

Shows the stupidness of all the release clauses we put in.

He's still young enough to hoover up generational wealth and come back to Europe in his prime.
Yeah, that's what Gabri Veiga did

If West Ham don't go up now, that would be embarrassing

West Ham getting more for Summerville in the Championship, than we got for Raph in the Premier League, is embarrassing

Obligatory video.

Could be interesting, young, decent record, Midtjylland also have a decent record for finding gems.

He's also quite different to DCL by looks of it, more capable of making his own chances which is useful.

I like the look of him. 22 goals in 34 appearances last season across all competitions including Europa League (his league record was 17 goals in 21 appearances). Not withstanding the lower quality of the Danish league, he looks to have good technique and all-round game, plus he's a lefty too. Also is the right age profile (22) with plenty of ceiling and would probably be quite content to be playing second fiddle to DCL for a season in the PL, or as a second striker with a different type of game to DCL.

Seems they're open to let him go, but of course want their valuation - about 25M Euro.
Better profile for me in acquiring a striker - uoung and with talent, who we can grow and then if need be make some money off.
There hasnt been many rumours about a striker - as opposed to the 7 goalkeepers we've been linked with :shock:

Aston Villa have a habit of signing obnoxious players.

Another reason to hate Villa imo!

The way they keep buying overpriced players off each other, it's clearly some sort of money laundering thing going on. I wonder what connection the two US owners have to eachother. :duno:

Personally, think he’s a half decent player.

I’ve nothing against a bit of nastiness, arrogance etc. In fact, I quite like it 😁
