    The likes of Anderson, Ba, Pembele and Rusyn will probably be allowed to train in the uk whilst there representatives try and flog them

    Wonder what happened to Vanat seemed to be likely right at the start of the window

    Yeah I think perhaps in the first year patto attempted to claim a lot of crosses but we were weaker at set pieces - perhaps him coming out a lot was the reason for this and the coaches have told him to stick to his line more. Definitely an interesting thought.

    Fascinating. As a general rule, do you share my scepticism about Eredivisie strikers or are Meerdink’s numbers just too good there?

    Seems like the Ukrainians playing hard ball and making his price more than we want to pay for him specifically.

    I share your skepticism about eredevisie players in general, but watching meerdink i find it hard to deny what im seeing and it certainly looks transferable to the premier league.

    Definitely the more risky signing though.

    Totally agree, he gets far more criticism than he deserves imo.

    Yeah that's pretty reasonable, I was saying yesterday he'd be a good option to actually rotate Mayenda and Isidor with whereas a lot of other targets would be expecting to start more.

    I think the concern is he hasn't develop year on year and last season was his worst one yet

    His best season was arguably the 1st season we went up to the championship and hasn't really kicked on since

    Think we need our CF buy to be a pretty sure thing, whereas we’ve got a little more traction with the wingers etc

    He certainly had a significant dip in form last season, personally I thought he came through it and finished the season pretty well.

    Yeah I think the profile we will sign all depends on how much they expect Mayenda and Isidor to play.
