Coventry City struck gold with £2.1m transfer - Frank Lampard has '£20m machine' on his hands
FLW's Coventry City fan pundit has been discussing the Sky Blues career of Victor Torp so far.
Struggling to think of many Championship midfielders I'd swap for Torp. Must be worth good money now.Never forget some in the summer were happy for us to get rid for £2m
Must admit I had my doubts that this midfield three would be robust enough defensively but from what we saw at the start of the season it was more or less fine. I suppose it doesn’t matter too much if Torp scores a banger every other week.the prospect of having a fit midfield of Grimes, Rudoni, and Torp is really exciting.
Lovely footballer with a lot to his game. The article is right, the prospect of having a fit midfield of Grimes, Rudoni, and Torp is really exciting.
Incredible if true…although makes me now wonder how often they’ve started together.I swear I heard or saw a stat the other day that when these 3 have started we haven't lost a game since Lampard took over. Not sure if that is true or not?
Just a quick scan, looks like it’s correct. But it also looks like (and this was a really quick scan) they’ve only started 9 games together.I swear I heard or saw a stat the other day that when these 3 have started we haven't lost a game since Lampard took over. Not sure if that is true or not?
There were several players this summer who got the 'I'll drive him there myself' treatment who have been regulars in the match day squad, if not starting XI, this seasonNever forget some in the summer were happy for us to get rid for £2m
Jay Stansfield cost the same as Torp, Rudoni, Grimes, Sakamoto and BTA combined.
Let that sink in.
Might even be some change left over even from those combined.That really puts it into perspective doesn't it.
Some genuinely brilliant business by us as well.
The goal he scored on debut was sensational.I have rated him from the day he arrived. A very fine intelligent footballer. £2.1m wouldnt buy one limb now
If only we would learn not to do it in the future. Give these players time.There were several players this summer who got the 'I'll drive him there myself' treatment who have been regulars in the match day squad, if not starting XI, this season
Its crazy that we can arguably say this about 7/8 players this year.i think torp is our key player this year. of course it doesn't hurt to have lots of other quality around him, but i think he's a great player. and will only get better.
him and rudi have the perfect manager working with them.

That's absolutely mental!Jay Stansfield cost the same as Torp, Rudoni, Grimes, Sakamoto and BTA combined.

Imagine how much they’d sell for now compared to Stansfield…That's absolutely mental!

Grimes is surely worth more than £7.50 mateAfter I typed my response, I did wonder...
Torp £15m
Rudoni £25m
Grimes £7.5
Sakamoto £15m
BTA £10m
£72.5m??
Probably being a bit optimistic on a couple?!
Austin was like a cartoon villain on here at one point. The bloke from St Albans who spunked generational funds.After I typed my response, I did wonder...

Rudoni £25m

They may be worth that to us, to the market they are probably worth moreAfter I typed my response, I did wonder...

Probably more realistic for varying reasons. Think that Torp value will crank upwards though.They may be worth that to us, to the market they are probably worth more
Torp £10m
Rudoni £25m
Grimes £6/£7m
sakamoto £4m
BTA £5m

saka’a age and goal output really limit his value imoYeah, I think I kind agree with you on Grimes and BTA but would defo put more on Saka and Torp.

Imagine if we had some proper money to spendThat really puts it into perspective doesn't it.

Hands up I did have a go at him after the conference after the Robins sacking. Thought his reason for no loans was an obvious statement that did not hold water, as it applied to every club. Rushworth loan has been a master stroke. He should note there are other clubs than Brighton.Austin was like a cartoon villain on here at one point.

Deserves a lot of credit for where we are right now, some respect needs to be put on Deadly Dean's name.
