16.75 mill seems to be around the sort of price that Parish would like and the player has put in a transfer request

only thing that goes against our transfer policy is his age, 28. Parish likes to go for younger than 25 year olds so they keep their market value (Cabaye was an exception for obvious reasons)

Lets hope Slimani is an exception too.. by all reports, and his goal scoring achievements, he seems to be exactly what we need, a 'goal machine'.. fingers crossed..

based on the two £30 million bids for strikers we have allegedly made already?

 


the dignified don't even enter in the game

Based on the fact that we have made one 30 million bid and not got him, another to Benteke was reportedly less tan the 32'5 mill Liverpool wanted and it appears we will not push the bid to this. Basically this 30 mill mark is the maximum Parish will go to but it seems he is unwilling to just throw 30 million to sign anyone. Believe when we looked at Silmani previously the talk was of Lisbon wanting over 20 mill for him and that price gave us cold feet. with the player putting pressure on at 16.75 and us not being able to land our first choice transfer target I think we might be able to get him for around 20 million.

Long story shot i think we have tried to get a marquee 30 million striker, not been able to so are now looking to get two strikers and hope one of them is a bit more of a hidden gem for 30 million instead. Putting my neck out I would say Silmani 16-20 mill and Babacar 10-15 mill

28 is still a decent age for a striker, still got 3/4 of his peak years left and might still command a respectable transfer fee for the next 2 years.

I think we need more youth in midfield (Cabaye 30, Jedinak 32, McArthur 28, Puncheon 30, Ledley 29) but a bit of experience up top might be a good thing.

"Just finished watching the first half of Sporting v Porto (1st and 2nd here in Portugal) where Slimani has scored the only goal thus far,

Good goal. Powerful header from a free kick on the left of the area. Very poor marking but he took it well.

Having adopted Sporting over Benfica as team to follow down here, I've seen a fair bit of him. I'm still unconvinced,but he's winning me over each time I see him play.
He's by no means prolific, but he scores important goals. Like now he's just tucked away a second very well indeed against Iker Casillas after hitting the bar 10 mins ago.
It's just that this is the Portuguese league, not the Prem and I'm still not convinced.
Yes, he looks strong, but then so would my grandma against these powder puff Portuguese defenders (and she's dead).

Remember Bébé at Man Utd? Jardel at Bolton? Porfírio at West Ham and Postiga at Tottenham? All super novas here, black holes in UK.

10-12 mill might be a winning punt, but it IS a punt and Sporting won't let him go for less than 20 anyway."

Still feel the same

Looks like we have got fed up with the Benteke and Berahino fiasco(s)?

I think he will definitely make a move to the PL, but as with any top striker we would have to overcome a lot of competition from other, 'bigger' clubs

Slimani £16m and Bony £13m sound a far better deal to me that £30+ for Benteki.

Started a Bony post when I saw that he's likely to leave and Swansea are favourites to sign him. Even if both he and Slimani were the same price it's Bony every time for me- proven Premier League striker and suits our style. Please SP, make this happen!!
