Also out of all of the strikers linked I think Cannon is the most likely to make an instant impact this season. Echoing @Scout73
Personally think all 3 make an instant impact. I think cannon is a good player but I’ve crying for a big physical centre forward so imo personally I’d prefer one of the other two
I can't get excited about Cannon despite everything pointing to him being the better option for us. I don't know why either
Same mate, sucker for a fancy foreign name even though 90% of our signings from abroad have been bang average haha
100%!! we still haven’t had a single foreign based signing be a success here in this KLD era. 90% of the British based ones have been.
That's it like, it just seems dull. The cynic in me thinks this bid has been leaked to drum up more interest
I don’t see how we need another winger unless we are planning on using Wilson exclusively as a CF. I would ideally like another 2 CF. Despite never having heard of him a few days ago I’ll be gutted if we miss out on Simic but if we don’t get him then I don’t think we could have done anymore as a club. The fact that there’s been no news of the deal falling through can only be positive and that we are being very thorough and professional
Spot on mate. Agree 100%. I worried that we wouldnt get off to a good start due to last seasons form carrying over. Credit to everyone, including Dodds and Proctor, for the pre season and first few games. Momentum is a big thing amd if we can somehow keep it up for 2 or 3 more games then we will have a top 6 cushion so soon in the season.
It's the unknown I reckon. In our heads, Simic could be the next Haaland (even though his record in the Austrian Bundesliga is poor). We know that Cannon is probably an efficient Championship striker with a little growth potential at most. I'd be happy with any of Simic, Cannon and Mendy. I'm not going to be picky. 2 of them would be perfect.
