Another bid for Danilo being submitted by the end of the week. Bid will be £4.5m with £1.5m in add-ons including a 10% sell on.

Feyenoord still looking for circa £8m for him. Seems like we are not content with the forward line just yet.

Proviso will be that if Danilo comes in then Colak will be leaving and looking to recoup at least £1.8m.

Let's see how it pans out. Feel sorry for Colak as he knows where the back of the net is but is not suited to what Beale wants from his forwards. As always he will leave with our best wishes.

If another bid has gone in for Danilo then Colak is definitely going. Not sure it’s 8M I read more 6.5M. Don’t really get the rumpus with Balogun, he’s an emergency back up for injuries, played regular with Goldson in defence, no money sign on or transfer additions, knows and loves the club and will prob retire after this stint. No brainier till the A team arrive.

We will not be playing 1 striker mostly be playing 2.

Might go 2 up front.

Hard to tell SWS until the end of preseason. ATM prob Dessers but too early to speculate. Was hoping Traore would be there as he gives a different option but who knows.

If we sign Danilo already have dessers and lammers then throw in sakala and roofe as we don’t know there situ yet. Colak will leave so it looks like 2 up top to me.
Strange one tbh unless both have diff attributes and will rotate to suit who we play against. I always thought 4231 but it’s shaping up slightly diff now.

Danilo will play behind the striker. Dessers will lead the line and gives us options of Lammers, Sima, and Danilo to play as the inverted wingers that beale likes to use.
Since all 3 can also play as a centre striker it gives us some depth in case of an injury to dessers.

I'd imagine dessert will be on the right of the 3.

I think Danilo would be brought in to play the 2 split strikers, it wouldn’t necessarily be one or the other, split strikers is MB preffered formation. He just hasn’t had the personnel or the right players before. If you look at the attributes of both Dessers and Danilo you can see why MB would think that.

My personal opinion (which is garbage) is if we had the both it would be our strongest strike force pairing since the early 2000,s. And would be really exciting to watch. I’m still doubtful we will get him though. He’d be a massive fans favourite and would love to buy my son and daughter both new kits with Danilo on the back.

I think it would be an ambitious signing but for me, Danilo isn't a player i'd be splashing £6m on. I thought he showed glimpses of quality however never held down a starting spot at feyenoord last year.
He is quite lightweight and i'm not sure will suit our game.

We'll win nothing with same back four from last season.

It was lack of goals that mostly cost us last season Ulsterblue and if you're thinking otherwise, u ain't digesting what mostly cost us trophies my friend ?.
