For Chazz. Because <3.

1. De Wijs is a no nonsense centre half. He tackles hard, so he picks up a few bookings, but overall he is solid.
2. For some reason, he's a brilliant free kick taker. Scored a few in the youth set up for PSV.
3. He likes to run out from the back with the ball to start attacks when in possession and is less inclined to launch it. That being said, a decent pass accuracy means he can find his target if so inclined.
4. His name is pronounced 'dee wise'.
5. He made his Champion's League debut for PSV against Wolfsburg and did alright by most accounts.

Seems like a solid acquisition. There are a few of these types of transfers going; U23s in foreign 'big' teams who want to play more. And at 23, he has a decent amount of time to progress.

Pronounced ‘de vice’ according to RH.
 
I deliberately avoided the comparison, but I suppose if you were going to compare him to anybody from our past, it'd be Maguire.

I am just hoping he can play through a long EFL championship season, Adkins was looking for players who could play 40 plus games in the coming season., at 23 he should be able to.
 
De Wijs is having a medical tomorrow apprentely.

A couple of ton transfer feee whatever that means.

If it’s wheat, 200k or 2 million who knows.
 
Apologies if my term 'stay loyal' was misinterpreted. I accept that there are many who see boycotting as a means of staying loyal to the club and being in the best interests of the club long term. Just think that its also in the best interests of the club that when the Allams finally leave we are still in the championship, and to do that the manager and 11 players who turn out for Hull City each week next season will need some support on a Saturday afternoon. I also agree in general that the fans who go to games haven't turned on the team, with a few exceptions.

Another Allam legacy: loyal fan has turned on loyal fan, flaskers v shirters, West stand v North stand.

They make no acknowledgment or apology for this ugly rift.

Then again, they don't attend games so how would they know?

What you mean is the internet allows people with different opinions than yours to post, and you don’t like that.

The “rifts” have always been there. There’s always been cockwombles who refer to other fans as shirters or flaskers and sneer.

There was always a type of snobbery or “proper fan” bollocks over the stands, even at Fer Ark.

So giving the Allams credit for that is a load of bollocks.

Here’s a suggestion, try focusing on the actual bad **** they’ve done instead of making **** up. You’ll gain credibility.

Maybe.

Hull City working to sign Jordy de Wijs from PSV Eindhoven

Jordy de Wijs is close to a move to Hull City, according to Sky sources
Hull City are working on a deal to sign PSV Eindhoven centre-back Jordy de Wijs, Sky Sports News understands.

The Tigers are hoping to have the 23-year-old as part of their pre-season training camp in Portugal next week.

De Wijs, a product of the PSV youth academy, spent most of last season on loan at Excelsior after finding first-team opportunities limited in Eindhoven.


With Michael Dawson returning to former club Nottingham Forest after his contract expired, the Dutch U21 international could fill the void left by the veteran defender. A clear priority for a Hull side who conceded 70 goals in the Championship last season.

Hull have been busy in their search for reinforcements as Sky Sports News understand they are also chasing Yeovil defender Tom James.

Well, he does have a remarkably thin head.
It's not thin, just long
 
"Taking more responsibility is something that I am used to and have done at my two previous clubs,"

"We had a lot of older players last year that brought a lot of experience to the group but they have all moved on to pastures new, which means I, along with others, now have to roll up my sleeves and do more in terms of being a leader.

"Being one of the more experienced in the squad, I have to step up and thrive on the extra responsibility. It's something that really excites me going forward."

Henriksen the new captain then?
