Whittaker doesn’t look anything worth spending much money on. And isn’t the sort of out and out striker we need. We should be near no one from Plymouth tbh. You do know we'll be in for him don't you? Dad a massive Stoke fan, Schumacher probably loves him. Money will probably be a problem depending on what Plymouth want from him. Probably. Can’t wait.

Keep on seeing that his old man is a stoke fan, where has this information come from?

It’s a wonder you don’t think it’s a great idea, you seem to think we already have an effective central striker. We don’t!

Not in a position too be turning our noses up at players that have scored nearly 20 in the league, regardless of there position, that being said the early signs of Million he might not be far off next year

It’s not like you’d be turning your nose up at a bargain he’d be our major signing of the summer and I think that would be really stupid.

I think Whittaker can play as an attacking midfielder as well as on the wing, him sitting behind Mmaee with Bae and Million either side, might be pretty tasty

I just think he’s a wank CF.

A few good appearances from Cundle towards the end of the season does nothing to suggest we should be anywhere near any Plymouth players and I will be livid if we do.

I was surprised to see Plymouth supporters were very anti-Whittaker before and after our home game against them. I think their view was that he's had his head turned by the prospect of a big move after a good start to the season.

What about Ben Brereton Diaz he was only on loan at Sheffield Utd? Big Stoke fan, just what we need a hard running striker who scores goals.

Dad a massive Stoke fan, Schumacher probably loves him. Money will probably be a problem depending on what Plymouth want from him. To think that Lazio were bidding £15 million for him in January then he came to us and was non-existent all game. I would say this is massive no go as there are a lot better players out there. For example Conway as previously mentioned here, exactly the sort of player we need.

Fart in a bottle and you're near the top of the recruitment list these days I'm led to believe...

Wonder how much it would cost to get Conway out of Bristol City. Top scored for them two seasons on the trott at this level. Central striker. Young. Coming into the final 12 months of his contract. Rejected an extension/new contract. I thought there was no chance before I learned of the last two details. He’s worth at least what Simms and Cannon went for last summer but with his contract situation maybe a cheeky bid is in order. If you are a relegated team (or a newly promoted one), he seems like a reasonable punt. Has yet to have a high scoring season but he’s doing well for someone his age.

Nobody can be signed yet-even Johansson isn't ours until something like June 14th when the window opens although we presumably have a legally binding contract signed.

What about Ben Brereton Diaz he was only on loan at Sheffield Utd? Big Stoke fan, just what we need a hard running striker who scores goals. He would be perfect- but Villarreal would likely demand a hefty fee, and may even have another look at him after he has shown he can score goals ( in arguably the worst ever side to grace the Prem since its formation) at premier league level. I'd be asking the question - i say this every window. But any deal would likely be expensive. He would however guarantee at least 15 goals at this level. He'd be a superstar for us.

I've been told we've enquired / spoken to Villareal about a potential loan deal. My response to that was a I bet half the championship and even a few prem teams have too though. Wasn't told anything about the likelihood of a deal though, would that tie in with what you've heard?
