Seem to remember when he played at the MKM last season for Cardiff he kept swapping wings and none of the 4 who marked him could stop him at any stage.
you can say what you want about Ehab (**** / bonus hole) but he sold Clucas for £16 million - 10 out of 10 there
I said we should sign Philogene on around page 12 of this thread so good to see someone at the club has finally got round to reading it.
I'm sure the 'management' read these pages. Lets hope they are not taking names. I've had a three a.m. knock. Not nice..
Happens with every owner, there's always someone close to them who has the inside scoop. We used to hear bits with the Allams, but with them it'd come from sponsors and rich types. The difference here is that Acun has no links to local rich people and has built a relationship with some blokes in a pub instead, so they're the ones getting the info that East Yorkshire business leaders would've got previously. Is it worse? Suppose if they're less likely to keep it quiet then maybe.
The signings so far are underwhelming. Winger I have never heard of and a loanee striker from Man City. According to my mate Rerver we are signing Vinagre strokes tomorrow. He does not sound very robust so who knows. (Vinagre strokes, not Rerver)
Delap (confirmed), Vinegar Tits (confirmed tomorrow?)... The two wingers now identified as - Lokilo and Philogene. The only other areas confirmed as targets are a creative number 10 (possibly Twine if he becomes available?) and goalkeeping competition for Ingram. Baz now distancing himself from Connolly. No other incomings unless replacements for players sold. Word of the day: underwhelming.
And last years loanees.... Vale, Salah, Pelkas, Ebiowei, Connolly, and Darlow all had much better youtube clips. Scouts need sacking.
I just think we need a director of football. With Acun, Kesler, Darnbrough and Rosenior all having some input into transfer targets, it’s starting to look a lot like a camel being a horse designed by committee.
Alternatively, we need to loan some of Man City and Chelsea's accountants who clearly are better at cooking the books to get around FFP. (That is of course if Acun really does have the money he claims to have but not permitted to invest)
