    The thing that worries me A LOT is that even on his 'highlight reel' videos on Youtube he looks suspect at best....

    Here's a little FM12 comparison with the rest of our strikers if you're interested <ok>

    So according to FM12 he's better than all of our strikers except Demba Ba, who he's pretty equal to.

    No point because if he lights up the league another club will poach him and if he doesn't were back to sqaure one.

    He won't rock the boat, he'll link midfield and attack and score goals and ultimately replace Peter Lovenkrands.

    This, he plays on the wing and up front, he's quite quick and Lovenkrands is leaving in summer, he's clearly better and is that "other option" (quick and small rather than a battering ram like Shola/Ba/Best) who we will actually use.

    Well he's not going to get a work permit so we might as well give up on him

    ffs I'm sick of fans being choosy about signings especially when the signings were making are all great these days.

    Just let Graham Carr etc get the **** on with it man.

    They did qualify, apparently the final round of qualifiers was madness though. Cant imagine Mali will win or anything though, shouldnt be away too long.

    Don't see the logic in it.

    We'll miss him for 6 games when the ACN starts in January + there are bigger and juicier fish in the sea!

    Maiga is VERY highly rated in France and Graham Carr doesn't exactly have a bad record does he?

    Stop moaning cos we aren't getting a big name.
