Gervane Kastaneer, Sullay Kaikai, Mikhail Rosheuvel, Mounir El Allouchi

Googled all the wingers or players who can play on the wing for NAC Breda. I assume it's one of these as I've heard we've paid a fee.

EDIT: As he's apparently Dutch according to Panda I'm guessing its Mikhail Rosheuvel

He's too old at 28. Apparently they're somewhere around 22/23 and rapid from NAC Breda. I've been told Dutch as well.

According to transfermarkt, Rosheuvel already has a future transfer to the UAE.

Kastaneer looks too good for us judging by those videos.

You're a tiny bit more reliable than St George so we will cut you some slack.

I'm not sure when this one is happening by the way, so don't pin too much hopes on it being today.

21 appearances. 2 goals 1 assist. Isn't great for a winger. But when you look deeper in he haunts had a huge amount of game time and has been injured.

add on top of that NAC have not scored a massive amount themselves 29 all season. Means he was involved in 10% off all goals scored.

Funny how stats can change the look. I should not have watched Moneyball last night.

Sullay Kalkai seems to fit but he only signed for them in January

I know he's not Dutch but it could be Sullay Kaikai. Previous experience at League One

If it is another signing from abroad, it’s impressive how much more far reaching our scouting network now appears to be.

Granted they could end up a dud, but I like that we aren’t letting the fact we’re a L1 club prevent us from looking further afield than the UK. We probably won’t be paying over the odds either, as I’m sure we would be for British based players.

Really positive about the on field stuff thus far.

We may have signed a number of players but the only front two we have is Baka and Chaplin. Biamou, Jones don't count. Max isn't up to L1

We’re still in June.

And Max will make the grade in L1.

He does count as we are paying him a wage.

Do like how people just try and ignore players exist because they dont like them.

It's June chill out. If 99.9% of the fanbase realise we need another striker so does Robins. Players will have to be moved on first to accommodate the investment.

Why won't Max be up to L1? He played one game?

If we signed bright (big if) a striker and one more CM I'd be happy to go into the season, and I'd be fairly Confident of a top 6 finish

Let's be honest here, we are nearly ready squad wise surely

They don’t count as they are both long term injuries, and still have plenty of rehab to go through. It’s nothing to do with liking them or not.

Weird comment. Yes he is on the staff, but no he is not up to L1 and in a few months time everybody will be saying that they knew this to be the case all along. Too slow. Like Grimmer he was an important part of the promotion team but thereafter...
We need strikers more than we need the wingers everybody is blethering on about.

A number 10 and a striker and we'll be in the pot for promotion

Yes but while he plays for us and is being paid he counts. So it would be a case of offloading.

Ipswich
Rotherham
Sunderland
Portsmouth
Doncaster
Peterborough
Bolton (Altho minus 12 will help)
Lincoln
MK Dons
Blackpool

Plus any number of clubs who could do surprisingly well or sink without trace; Fleetwood, Accrington, AFC Wimbledon, Southend

This league is not going to be easy.

I'm going to say Kastaneer, it's based on absolutely nothing but the first bit of skill in this video


Wiki has him as a striker / winger - Gervane Kastaneer - Wikipedia

Has a year left on his contract.

He looks a right player fits the mould too strong on the ball quick & direct.

We are definitely lacking up front, 2 or 3 of those strikers could be moved on imho, and some more firepower brought in.

I’m thinking we’ve gone from back to front in terms of getting a squad assembled I think the striker will still come maybe with one leaving.

I heard.a while back that a big guy was coming in from a Dutch team but assumed it was the Chelsea lad we signed shortly afterwards who'd been on loan there
Maybe I was wrong as this lad would fit the bill

If (and it’s a big if) we sign this chap could we see MR opting not to play with a defined striker, but with a front 3 of Kastaneer-Hiwula-Jobello all interchanging?

Regardless, if he doesn’t sign now I’ll be distraught!

Get behind me in the queue to abuse the official Twitter because something didn't happen that they didn't say would.
