    More of a striker than Clarke or Roberts ...

    ... less of a CF than Charlie Wyke.

    That'll do for me.

    BTW can anyone tell me what Amad is.

    To be fair to him, judging by his heatmap, he is a winger. Whether that’s where we see him is another matter. We might have delved into the data we have on him and think he could do a job as a CF.

    Don't believe that. Let's listen to what Kipper has to say.

    No mate I was told he was here with 2 agents.
    1 of those is a very good friend, but even he would not give a name.

    No more news, I was in Gatsbys yesterday watching the match, and a young chap asked if I knew about him.
    Yes I'm fine now, thanks for asking.

    His side play a fluid system, often 4231, sometimes 433. Watch highlights he pops up all across the front line. Most importantly he looks to be able to finish and has a knack of finding space. A lot of players these days are part of a front 3 or 4 and will move across the line as they play. Coaches really like that freedom in a front group. Every so often a player like Haaland is a throw back number 9, but often strikers now are more about playing across the lines rather than the penalty spot. This las moves like he can score back post, front post, first time. He gets across his man brilliantly and if Clarke and Roberts dont thrive on that I will be surprised. I think we will see him play through the middle but with licence to drift wide and join in with Roberts and Clarke, hopefully leaving space for Dack, Pritchard, Neil to get around that penalty spot. I am really excited by this lad, of all the strikers we have been linked with he looks the best to me, cant wait to watch him. Worth also saying he is one of the older players in a young side, hopefully means he comes in with a good sense of personality.

    That's all well and good but have you selected stuff from the internet, which is what counts.

    It will really go mental this week. Prem teams needing a fix already and will panic, loans will fly out everywhere. We are in a brilliant position to take 1 or 2 top loans should we want to. Some real young talent going to be heading out I reckon.
