    Depends though, they were making it sound like he takes about 100 shots a game from ridiculous places. Just plays with his head down and rarely passes

    Of course they might be a bit bitter about his impending departure but seemed odd to me that a player who had scored so many goals last year there were a fair few with major doubts about him scoring at the next level

    It could be because his teammates are ****e. He wouldn't get away with that in the PL.

    I think that’s exactly their point, and why they don’t think he will cut it in the PL. If he has been doing that his whole career then it is something that will have to be worked on which might work/might not and will take time

    Guess we’ll just have to wait and see sounds like he is going to end up in a PL team whether that be Saints or somewhere else

    We didn’t seem to have enough shoot on sight players last year so I’m not sure I would be mad. Then tap in specialist Che Adams (as I believe he has been called on Saintsweb) can follow them up

    I do wonder whether those saying he isn’t good enough are just upset he is going. It happens (see: Danny Ings thread)

    But he can also play wide so that covers for the winger you mentioned you’d like

    I’d still be disappointed if we aren’t seriously looking at Delaney. Or someone who can also play the Romeu role is Romeu isn’t fit (or take it off of him)

    The rumours are this Broja deal is pretty much done. Which if true has come pretty much out of nowhere like the other Chelsea ones

    So maybe that is true of the “main” striker target as well. Difficult to tell but definitely interesting

    If the two come in i assume Shane Long will be moved out on loan and I guess Obafemi as well?

    Tella might be used more as a 10 if another one comes in. Plenty of options if so.

    Broja looks decent to be fair. Clips from his Chelsea debut against Bompey.

    If you’re not living on the edge, you’re taking up too much room

    Was about to say the same - you love living dangerously :)

    I am battery paranoid, wireless chargers in every room and never let it go below 40%

    Thank you to those who are concerned about my battery. I have pretty significant ADHD so it’s very on brand for me.

    Also my phone is an old iPhone SE. The one that looks like an iPhone 4. It’s old and the battery is trash.
