Guela Doue RB from Strasbourg £40 million being quoted, over to you BlueNose any info on the lad?

We were offered the chance to sign him for under £16m in January and Moyes said no.

Didn't know that, mate. Is he any good, do you know?
{Ed025's Note - not as good as his brother GB.. :)

He's very highly rated, only seen him a handful of times and been very impressed.
As Ed says, not as good as his brother lol.

I put him in a list of RBs that we should target last summer, GB.
Others in that list were Sanchez, Omar El Hilali, Wesley, Jon Aramburu and Bellanova.
It depends what we are after really and what you would prioritise from attack or defence or would you want a happy medium between the two.
Personally Doue sits near the top of the list of the above for me but as Swan said, we could have got this lad a hell of a lot cheaper this time last year after a decent season with Rennes and then Strasbourg.
I think 40m is a hell of a lot to pay for a RB mate and although we have a better war chest this summer, blasting 40m of it on a RB is questionable for me, especially when the likes of Sanchez are available for around 10m.

Cheers Bn, mate, excellent info as always.

Always welcome GB.
I would take Alec Cleland back at this rate, mate.

So would Moyes.
