    Even if none of these theories are true, it’s class that we’ve got someone like Ghisolfi travelling around Europe finding the best up and coming players that we can pinch. Feels surreal compared to what we’ve been through the last 10 years.

    Even go as far as to say, if it’s not a scouting or relationship building mission, it’s great that we have such football people in place that they’re at the football when not working on football.

    Whatever reason he’s there, there’s a positive slant in it.

    Quick scan of their players for other options and Bitshiabu stands out, young, French, defender, seems like something we’d be interested in. did just sign a one year extension mind

    I don't think we need or should get another CF, Mayenda and Isidor have the potential to step up, I think they will, and Guiu rounds the three options off.

    I'm not saying none of them can possibly be improved on but there's a limit to how many players you can sign for the same position.

    That's a good shout and I agree to a degree. However, there are signs that we are absolutely going for it this season. None of our three strikers have outstanding goal tallies (yet) so it feels like we could spring a surprise on a relatively big name. Goalscoring might be an area we don't want to leave to chance and go for a bit more of a sure thing.

    Is that milk bottle tops or *** packets?

    Hmm. I suppose they heard about his dribbling ability, though it's not quite what they imagine...

    It looks to me like Guiu was our last signing for the position, highly rated and big wages I think. It'd be a bit strange to sign Isidor and Mayenda on long term contracts, also sign Guiu and then sign a marquee CF making them third or fourth choice and barely getting a sniff.

    I think we're backing what we've got in that position and imo it's the right call.

    Looks solid, although judging from the clips, I hope he doesn't **** himself when he plays infront of an actual crowd.

    Nah mate, was just asked to post the 'message'.

    TBH these things follow a similar pattern and aren't validated until the club posts the scarf shot ...

    ... all good fun though, before the season starts.
