Can I ask is this new striker any better than Oscar…..I just feel we constantly buy average strikers when it was the one area acun wouldn’t take a risk on

I know nothing about this guy and pretty much all the signings to be honest

Based purely on youtube he looks like an upgrade. Showed some technical ability which is more than i've ever seen from Oscar. He's also bigger and quicker so he's a better physical presence if nothing else.

I think the championship in particular has moved past looking at players records. Take the last 2 seasons for example, top scorers in both season have been Szmodics and Akpom.

Akpom’s best scoring season before last was 8 in the Greek top flight, but Carrick played to his strengths and because he’s a good player he’s now kicked on.

Szmodics is the same his best was 15 in league 1, yet with confidence and the right system he hit 27.

This guy clearly knows where the back of the net is from his time in Switzerland so it’s up to Walter now
 
Becks Blue is horrible, it's what restaurants serve when they've no real interest in catering for non-alcohol drinkers.

The best ones are those with 0.5% alcohol (which are still classed as alcohol free), Brewdog Punk and Lucky Saint being the best.
I'll have to try them one day..Perhaps I need to eat in better restaurants...I've been served Blue in the place in Coniston, and the Chinese in Hessle. Which to be honest wasn't bad, food wise. Over to you Gordon.
 
Watching Notts County, Crowley looks a player sign him up, can't cost much more than half a crown

1,400 there from Grimsby.Good following for a Thursday night televised game.About a third of their last home game. Equivalent to us taking 7,000.
