If Sky Sports Germany are to be believed it's a case of one of the other between Maddison and Szoboszlai, which makes sense given that they're very similar players and would both command hefty transfer fees. If I had to guess I think Szoboszlai might end up being the one given what you imagine Maddison's wage demands will be. There were rumours a while back that Maddison would be looking for wages above our wage structure and subsequently Spuds was his most likely destination.

Gets as many chances as Almiron but with the finishing ability of Wilson

With Maddison you know you're getting a Premier League proven player. Surely he can't demand massive wages? He needs to be realistic 

 

If Spuds offer him 200k+ that's us out of the bidding most likely. I think the current top earner at the club is on 120k or thereabouts. Then again it is rumoured that Bruno will crack 200k with his new contract, so I suppose if that's the case it then depends on how many players we can afford to offer those type of wages to.

Szoboszlai Is captain of his national side at just 22 so clearly has leadership qualities, whereas Maddison seems a bit immature still. From the few games I’ve seen of Szoboszlai he seems a good fit for Howe’s system, but as others have noted Maddison is a proven talent in the PL, I won’t grumble with either signing tbh but definitely think it’s Szoboszlai as primary target and Maddison is the back up option.

Szoboszlai seems a more impressive athlete than Maddison and is certainly a bit more imposing physically. His stats on pressing to win possession back are also well ahead of Maddison's. Although I suppose the stats regarding pressing are from this season, so perhaps don't give a fair reflection of Maddison given he was in a struggling team. Howe also may be able to turn Maddison into a presser if that's not currently a big part of his game.

I see you lot are linked to Ferran Torres. We bought him for 23m Euros and sold him to Barca for 55m Euros + 10m add ons.

We basically pulled Barca's pants down with that one. He's a good lad, works hard and gets the odd goal but nah, no thanks.

Of course Barca probably still owe us most of that as they're skint as.

We've just feigned interest so Villa buy him.
