Looks to be very much in the model of what we want from our side players. Seems a smart pick up. If we can manage to get it sorted

If he repliactes that stuff regularly in the Champo for a season or 2, we have a serious player worth a hefty fee.

Just had a look at his FotMob:

Pros:
Good at dribbling

Cons:
Most other things

7GA in the Dutch 2nd division doesn't scream WE'RE GOING UP

Imagine he’d be a back up for Sakamoto.

Plus the last player from the Dutch second division wasn’t that bad for us

Looks like he's playing multiple positions in that clip. RW, LW and I think centrally.

Would be an interesting option off the bench when opposition legs are getting tired.

Yeah as a rotation for Saka he's not bad at all. We need pace and dribbling desperately.

Just mental that we're potentially spending £3-5m on a role player, I still can't get to grips with it.

I woul hope we can get rid of one of the chuckle brothers in goal, Bidwell, Allen, one of Simms or Asante and MVE allowing us to sign a half decent keeper on loan, a back up RB, CB and ST

We have 24 of the permitted senior pros on our books.
Without sales or loans out (it's not clear if you're also excluding those as well), we have room for 1 more player, or we sign U21s, or pay people not to be in the official squad.

Watford just signed Nestory Irankunda from Bayern and are close to signing another winger from Metz and already have Baah who plays right wing. He does look like he had bags of potential though.

Again, hear things or read things and pass them along.

Technically 34 years old you freak, get off the internet and stop looking up people to try and emphasise your point.

It could be fine, yes. But if you extend the squad with U21s you then increase your wage bill taking a risk on players who will contribute little or nothing.
If we sign young players who make a contribution similar to Doyle or even Norton-Cuffy, then great. If they turn out not to be ready like Ayari or that lad from Palace that got sent back after one game, then we've wasted transfer money and wages.

They also have too many foreign players on work permits so having to be creative with moving some on or using loans from Udinese, who they own.

I got prematurely excited a couple of weeks ago we were about to sign up Doyle, Dolan, Toffolo imminently straight after KKH… disappointed ever since

Really happy with the KKH transfer though, positive steps

Think their owners came out and said their priority is getting Watford back in to the Premier League (as its where all the money is) when previously Udinese has been the priority

They signed him with a 50% sell on though.

It still annoys me when people babble on about this.

Tony Bloom and Matthew Benham were boyhood fans of the respective clubs they now own.

The dynamic couldn't be more different and both have injected a massive amount of capital into their clubs without any real intention of a return, well certainly in the early days.

Benham was paying off club debt before he was even in an official capacity at the club. Brighton wouldn't have their stadium without Bloom.

Bloom was something nearing £400m in at Brighton last time I looked!

A player highly likely to gain value, the kind of deal Bling might sanction.

Agents in overdrive today - source on X reckons we are close to deal for Daniel Periera MLS Austin? Midfielder.

Again take with pinch of salt. But at least been fun today!

GIMOC linked it back when he used to get a bit of info. I caught him liking one of our Insta posts too.

I have midfield as our position of least need, but if we can start improving on the likes of Allen then I'm all for it. All our midfielders seem to get a decent amount of minutes.

Seems to be a true box to box midfielder so would suit us.

Imagine someone will go to makeway
