He’s got a Z where an S could be, makes him an exciting unknown foreigner to me.

CHECKBOOK OUT ACUN
 
His name definitely has a Hull City player ring to it... I can just here 'Maxilmillio Gomez, better than all the rest' In homage to Ms Turner...
 
I’m sorry but both Turkish league and MLS are retirement leagues for players who have played most of their career in the top 5 European leagues. Very rarely do you see players coming from either of these leagues to better ones. However, the Dutch and Belgian leagues are pipelines for better leagues and players from there do well in English football. Are you suggesting our recruitment from Turkey has been better than Burnley’s from Belgium? Come on.

You're living in fantasy land though, we don't have anyone at the club with a comprehensive knowledge of the Dutch or Belgian leagues so how are we meant to adequately recruit from there? We use the tools we have at our disposal and we have a comprehensive knowledge of the Turkish League dating back years so it's the league we should still heavily recruit from. Adama and Tufan are two of the most technically gifted players we've ever signed at this level.

Comparing us to Burnley is somewhat unfair, going off TransferMarkt, they've spent in the region of £40m on transfer fees and our existing squads were miles apart too.

Didn't Acun part own a Dutch club?

If howden is Paul musselwhite, I just want to say he made probably the best save I’ve ever seen in person. Back in div 3 someone headed a ball and he dove one way, then it took a deflection going the other way to which he somehow dove the other way midair to flick it out on the line (seaman vs sheff Utd fa cup esque). Always remember that, was incredible.
I saw that save from the South Stand. It was the best I ever saw live. He really did twist in mid-air to change direction. I think it was against Bury. I remember it more as a deflected shot than a header but it doesn't matter. The ball was going in and he shouldn't have been able to get anywhere near it. It was 0-0 at the time and we went on to win 1-0.
