Eder supposedly close to signing?

Last season and now this season so that's 2 seasons we have tried for him.....Laudcrap ...Who is he ????

 

So we tried to sign him last summer, cant remember seeing any links to him on here, but I am sure you are not making it up.

 

rGm's comments seems he is more than happy with this signing.
He told the Official Site:

"Eder is the type of striker we`ve been looking for. He has excellent attributes; strong, quick and technically sound with the ball,"

"He has a good pedigree and is a full international with Portugal. He fits our profile in terms of the players we`ve signed in the last two seasons because he`s young, hungry and eager to prove himself in the Premier League.

"He has the characteristics we are looking for and will certainly add competition to the striking department.

"I`m looking forward to seeing him work alongside the likes of Bafe (Gomis) and Marvin (Emnes). And the fact that we`ve got him in early is a bonus."

He does list lots of attributes, the only one that seems to be missing is his ability to score goals. Probably not very important for a new striker.

Have a look at all his career something like 56 in 0ver 200 games, but his recent spell (or last season to be specific.) does look better.

All a bit average to me TLF. See how he goes, he may well fit us

 

Well he's here now guys,let's hope he can do the biz.GM and staff must see something in him.

 

I hope he is a massive success and turns out to be another gem. Just after who we were linked to he would have been nowhere near the top of the lists.
