He suffers a bit with Tore Andre Flo-itis - he's a good forward but, despite his size and contrary to what people expect because of it, he's no target man.

Preston fans say he doesn't jump much like, so don't think he would be a target man

Yeah that video showing Riis' really good season in 21/22 highlights how much hes suffered from the recent injuries - hopefully as a backup we can get 75% of the player he was then and not the one they have now.

Cannon is a 10m rising to 13m perm sale to sheff united, Frigan is a loan to buy with the term being we pay it if we go up

Yeah for the same price as Cannon.

At least he's scored goals in 2 poor teams at this level, I'd much rather have Cannon than Frigan at those prices.

You could argue Riis is the best overall option as he's done it in the same poor team as Cannon, but at a quarter of the price.

Situation is much different though, we aren't wanting to spend that type of money here and now by the looks, for what it's worth I do want Riis

He was shocking at Rangers, I remember my Auntie being buzzing we signed him and I told her how bad he had been up here- killed her enthusiasm

He was awful at Rangers suffered a bit from his build and his laid back languid style just didn't fit in
McLeish didn't like him thought he was lazy.
Joke in Glasgow at the time of Alex McLeish shouting "Tore start warming up. You're coming off"

It's not really that different, we tried to do a similar deal with Frigan and Cannon.

I wouldn't really pay that much for either of them, but I think people see Frigan as some sexy European unknown and Cannon as some Championship fodder. I'd rather hedge my bets on Cannon tbf. Although that is unlikely now.

Imo we'll be signing a forward to play 2nd fiddle to Isidor, I'd rather pay the money touted around on a quality RW.

Think most people are like that to be honest.. who watches much of Preston other than when we play them!? I think highlight reels are what most fans end up judging off and they can make anyone look like a superstar lol remember Hemirs..?

I use my son. He seems so well versed in so many football things! Should be a scout! Was telling me all about Le Fee 2 days before we signed him, knew loads about his background, his style and everything! Seems he doesn’t just sit on his arse and play computer games and watch porn up there (he’s 20)

Don't know much about Frigan or Riis tbh.

If people said no to Cannon, surely we say no to Frigan for the same price?!?! If Riis is half decent and we can get him for way less than the other 2 we should probably go for him.

If it's close he won't be playing tonight.

Still think we'll get 2 decent players in, maybe even pull a rabbit out of the hat somewhere. Striker and RW for me. We won't sign a LB coz he'll use Hjelde

I'm sure I saw on SSN that Riis is suspended tonight

Probably knows about him because of EA sports and FM so you’re probably wrong about at least part of that!

I used to play loads of Football Manager every November\December when it came out and people will laugh because it’s just a game at the end of the day but I do think it gives you some good knowledge of footballers outside of the PL/Champ which is generally what most English fans follow - especially across Europe if you’re on the spectrum like me and spend a week scouting players just to then skip through the seasons matches as fast as possible to get to the next transfer window lol.

Mentioned it before on another post I think but I always used to scout the U21/B/C teams of major clubs and sign some of their talents. Then you see them in real life getting a big move and it’s almost like proud dad moment! :emoticon-0102-bigsm:emoticon-0102-bigsm

It's incredibly true to life now these days too, the databases and the time the dev's put into it is next level

I don’t think Ipswich will loan him out personally but he’d be a cracking signing. Would walk into our current team. Loads better than the likes of Mayenda who is sometimes out wide for us

I would just worry that we would resort back to give the ball to Clarke and hope he can do something with it.
