I've watched all of the clips on this thread, and I've gradually gone from being underwhelmed, to fairly ambivalent, to slightly optimistic, to wanting to have his children.

How many years after you married her did you get to the second stage?

Really excited for this guy. Think he will replace the attributes lost in Gyok and also seems to have a good head on his shoulders (something I think MR is looking for?).

Crazy that we’re now spending this kind of money and that on the day he’s likely to be announced it’s like the 12th thread on the forum as a kid hiding in a bush got a photo so speculation has calmed down!

His touch in these clips look much better than the Turkish clips. Granted, dozens of hours of football are being crammed into a tiny segment so will never be properly representative.

IF we do sign him, would you start him over Simms, or have two up top?

Play them both but have him in the lone striker role when needed.

I don't think they'd spend that on both of them to leave one on the bench. Sure we'll revert to one up top occasionally but largely it'll be a front 2.

We were able to play one up front based on Viks incredible work rate. Let’s hope at least one of Haji or Simms can bring that same energy.

Van Ewijk has already had to buy more gas just to keep up in training.

Tavares has pace but shows very little instinct in how he best uses it. You'd really want Godden's instincts to make him effective.

Maybe they are going to announce him at the same time as someone else to get us all mega erect.

I’m wondering if they mention it’s a club record singing. Another singing would be good though and think we were hoping for (and MR suggested?) three in before Sunday?

The club should engage Covcept for their social media channels, some of their output over the past couple of weeks has been immense.

Is Fadz a problem? Young defenders without his experience alongside them seems like a potential problem to me.

Cant be giving over a position and in fact an entire formation just for one man though. If Fadz can’t play in a two then get someone who can and also has experience.

Just don’t want us to be so defensive this season. Let’s blow some teams away.

I don’t think anyone was expecting to see you nominate Saddlebrains as the Fadz replacement.

People bang on about pace (Tavares) but it is no good if you can't trap a bag of cement or look up and see the right options?

I am not convinced he has what is required and people are punch drunk from the debut wonder goal he scored. In my opinion it raised the bar of expectation unrealistically.

The most important thing is he makes a full recovery from injury first. I hope he proves me wrong.

If it's £7m+ upfront as being reported this would be our record transfer fee.

If someone told me even 2 years ago we would be spending this sort of money on one player, let alone what we have on the rest of the squad, I'd have probably requested a restraining order on them !

It's amazing how fast the fortunes of a football club can change.
