Makes you wonder if he was a Widdrington target for us and we have nabbed him off him?

Followed by Chris Anderson and Kieran Crowley so likely to be legit

Is it not the FIFA 18 rating that counts?

He's 22. Maybe Walsall don't play a style that suits him. Maybe he has all the raw attributes but not quite put it all together yet.

You may well be right, after all Portsmouth don't play a style that suits Chaplin according to their fans, which is why he is surplus to their manager's requirements

Incredible.

This just seems madness, and not based on those comments alone.

Same as McNulty's base card!

Well, I automatically assume you lot are fucking clueless helmets so some other prick supporting another team has got no chance.

Sign him up. Champions league 2 years. Get that passport renewed.

Didn't you also say George Thomas will be League 1's top scorer?

I said it wouldnt surprise me if he was. I'm from near Walsall so know a lot of fans and a lot of them would have been pleased to have let him go on a free in the summer. Can't finish and most of them find him lazy.

Jesus give the bloke a chance! Different system, different manager, different coaching etc can make all the difference with a player. Robins would not be spending 200k on a player if he didn’t think he was better than what we have got. I’d be tempted to play Hiwula and Bakayoko up front together.

Surely, *surely* this is because somebody's off elsewhere?

It's a bit... underwhelming.

Yes...some have been saying we desperately need another striker. So 'bingo' if it happens

They should get Beavon back as well and increase the goal threat even more

Worryingly feels like we’re going for a quantity over quality approach. We’re in desperate need of a striker in the mould of McNulty and this guy certainly isn’t that.

Poor decision. 200k on Walsall's 3rd choice striker who they dont want is bad business all round.

Wouldn't write anybody off, but we'd be laughing long and loud if it were a transfer like this in the other direction.

Got to hope if it happens, this is the club it clicks for him!!

This is really worrying. As mentioned on the Warchest thread: last season, in the league, he managed 41 appearances - 5 goals and the season before that, 39 appearances - 4 goals. (This is from Transfermarkt.co.uk)

9 goals in 80 games?.... Based on the last two seasons, in the league, he’s managed a goal every 8.8 games, absolute dogshit.

Perhaps it’s a swap with Biamou

Yep cue the cov fans saying joke of a replacement and he's awful before watching him play. How about give the lad a chance I bet 90% of our fans had never heard of Mcnulty or were on his back at the start of the season then suddenly when he starts bagging he's the best forward we ever had apparently

He follows Dan Agyei on twitter. Guessing they don’t talk anymore as I doubt he’d have given us a glowing reference

He also follows Christiano Ronaldo, Harry kane, Paul Pogba and Marcus Rashford, so clearly has aspirations

The typical fan thinking MR is clueless and their own views are nothing short of revolutionary. Why not wait until the window is shut before you make judgements on his transfer business?

Biamou or JCH to go seem the only logic for this signing (both contractually obliged I'd say).

Maybe JCH not starting the first game has made him want out?
