Neal Maupay has made a great start at Brentford, 8 goals in 6 games. That kind of form up to January and he could be worth a swoop. Ollie Watkins is also meant to be a good prospect. I believe that the pair only cost Brentford a total in the region of £3.5 Mill, both signed by Dean Smith.Brentford also have the highly rated defender Chris Mepham.

Oliie Watkins has started very well this season too, though I expressed myself against paying over 15 million for him in the summer. I still think that value is too high. You'd think Brentford, which has probably the fewest fans in the Championship, would sell their players cheaper. But they're asking for a lot of money. SO I don;t imagine Maupay being that cheap either. A nice team though. Everybody is really young up front there. Neal Maupay is 22, Sergi Canos is 21, Brazilian born Marcondes is 23, Ollie Watkins is 22, Said Benrahma (recently brought from Ligue 2) is 21. This guarantees them a lot of money from upcoming transfers in the following years. All these players are doing good and the club will do better and better, maybe even ascending to first level of football in 5 years if the money is well invested into other good players.

It makes you wonder how a club like Brentford can unearth these gems when we clearly can't.

Good post and info. You are right these players won't be cheap but could be great additions. It's bizarre to think that players can't make the grade up to the Prem when we had a fair few who managed to acquit themselves well enough when we were promoted 6 seasons ago ? Nobody would of thought of ditching FFS, Yannick, Jedi etc. All the teams last season managed to survive with plenty of personnel from there. Personally I'm just praying for something better than this Jan, with 2 players disappearing and an unproven striker who should be top dog with such a low threshold to break into the team at the moment, being jumped over by Ayew, who came in the summer not Jan.

Can't touch Maupay for less than 10 million though. LUCAS JOAO from Sheffield though is my proposition. 25 years old, just reached top level and will keep it up for years to come or even further develop. Out of contract next summer, they either sell now for cheap or you make a pre-contract in January and take him for free in the summer. Moves very well, is tall and strong, but fast too. He has been deployed as centre forward but as winger too. Maybe doesn't look like a great scorer with 15 goals in 60 Championship matches, but in fact he has hit 16 goals and 9 assists (25 total) in just 3200 minutes played in the last 2 years. He'd make a better striker than ANY of the ones at the club (Benteke, Jordan Ayew, Sorloth). Not one to score game in-game out in the PL, but at a very low cost, he'd make a great addition, I reckon he could hit a goal or assist every 200 minutes or less, which is pretty much the same as Benteke (a player who cost 30 million), but Joao would also add pressing, runs and recoveries to that.

There's this attacking left sided winger at Villa who scored the other night & a diminutive striker at West Brom i believe who also scored for them the same night.
Yes I’ve heard about them. Evidently West Brom have also recently signed another player on a free who did quite well for a couple of other clubs.
