Did come across as a bit of a panic buy on transfer deadline day. If he can chip in with 10 goals this season I would suggest it is money well spent.
He's got 5 already, he's getting in the right places and he gets the service. I think he just might get there. As long as he stays fit I can't see any reason as to why he wouldn't.
Febbos is Swedish, he's no more likely to know about a player in the Tippeligaen than we are a player in Ligue 1.
Diomande has scored 32 for me in his first season playing for Hull City on FIFA 16. Hernandez got 21. I also notice that Tom H's role as FIFA ambassador has really paid off for him - he's a monster in the game. He can tackle, dribble, has a good turn of pace, and an eye for goal, (low stamina though). Anyway, I reckon Dio is going to score lots of goals for us this season, Snodgrass is going to be better than before and in a midfield with Diame and Huddlestone we are going to be top after Christmas and will stay in that position until the end of the season, making us champions for the first time. I'm definitely a glass half full kinda guy.
I was thinking he would be able to shed more light on the region in general as opposed to the actual Norwegian league!
I don't think that January will be as bad as some still think especially IF we are top 2 or near to it. Next summer will be the time to worry if Hull City are NOT back in the PL. As for agents, Elmo's new one is a right so and so.
Also the issue's of contract's need sorting fast before January otherwise we'll have a squad half full of free agents who can talk to other team's come January.
True. But Steve Bruce said he is going to try and get this sorted out during this international break.
The best time to buy Norwegian players is when they are 17-19 (such as Real Madrid buying Odegaard last year).. because this is when they are matching the best in the world.. as seen by the recent narrow U21 loss to England. After 20/21 they drop in 'value'... my personal view is that Norwegian clubs are quite far behind the training, coaching and facilities of England/Spain/Germany/Italy and so the players don't reach their full potential and almost get 'damaged'.. Which is why I think it's strange Hull have bought a 25 year old Norwegian player.. who probably isn;t going to get better than he was at Stabaek, when there are many far better younger players in the league... But then Hull don't seem that good at identifying and developing young players.. ESSEX GULL
Don't think he's shown enough for anyone to meet our asking price. If no one wants to pay for him he's not going anywhere. If someone does, we'll have more than enough to get Jordan Rhodes.
Good for you! People are writing Diomande off and he hasn't even played yet! He's over 19 so he must be ****e, he's just like Jay Simpson so he's ****e, we've been conned by 3rd world Norwegian doctors so he's probably ****e and crocked, for heaven's sake, he might be ****e but let's see for ourselves first eh?
There was a banner from Swedish supporter(s) at the Blackburn game in the North Stand, I wonder if that was Febbos?
