Akpom back?

[RenzoRosso]

Sounds like he’s leaving Ajax, would they expect their money back? Can’t imagine he’d fetch the same as a year ago. I’d like to see him and Lath playing together. Paddy’s wages might just have freed up sufficient cash….

 

[Tryasize10]

Surely there's a deal to be done especially if there are outstanding payments/ instalments of the initial fee remaining

 

[Quicksilvera]

No chance.

He’s scored 11 goals in under 900 minutes. He’s not coming back.

 

[Willow]

We can but dream. Imagine a 433 with Archer Lath Akpom up top.

 

[Jonathan]

Can't we just move on from fantasising about old players coming back to get the band back together all the time

 

[Willow]

Plenty of room for a bit of everything.

Never!

 

[mercury_redstone7]

It would be nice to just play 10 forwards and fly keeper. I've never enjoyed this 9 at the back and a sweeper.

I thought Chuba had scored 14 for Ajax ?

 

[parmoboy]

It won't happen. Ajax will want a return on what they paid for him at the very least. No chance we're going to spend big money on a player these days.

The time to do it was when we still had the parachute payments but Monk and Pulis made a mess of it.

We over-estimate the pull of the Championship, alas. Despite a great scoring ratio there Akpom still weirdly seems to be surplus to requirements, but surely some lower Prem team - or top league Euro outfit - will scoop him up and give him the wages he's on there

Perfect for Palace or West Ham

 

[AytonMews]

Perfect for Palace or West Ham

And they’ll play him as a number 9

 

[Smoggyonthesolent]

And they’ll play him as a number 9

Sadly so true!

 

[r00fie1]

Not for me.
He doesn't go by the name of Latte Lath....

 

[Gunslinger]

He would cost too much , he represented good value (eventually) in his last season here after completey underwhelming performances prior, but
he has had his time here, had his purple patch, and moved on, and so should boro fans

He was a bit special!

 

[Davey_C]

He's 28 we paid £3m and got £10m return after Wilder was prepared to let him go for free

Never look back ... unless your name's Colin Cooper

Also worked for Bamford too i guess

 

[Trugdish]

He left, move on

 

[Ash88]

Out the blocks early.

 

[Merlin]

He’s proven here, knows how we play, an instant fit - we’d be mad not to if it was doable. A loan with commitment to buy if promoted would be a good option. Obviously if a prem club came in for him he’d go there but if not ………
