I don't get the impression that we have signed van Ewijk or DaSilva to play them as full backs in a flat back four.

yeah, also the CB's point to a back 3

Yes, but we still have a lot of gaps to fill, so it’s bold to spend so much on one player

Blocked or muted ? I have a couple muted but when they post, I still get to see when they post as the space with "XXXXX posted:" shows in the thread but the text is that I can't see the actual text as I've muted them

Have to as it’s usually you commenting on my stuff and it still comes in my notifications that you’ve responded to one of my comments.

I'd have to assume Doug had a transfer pot aside even before the Gyok money. If it was say £10 million and then he said have all the cash from sales too then you're going to end up with a good wad. The Gyok sale was just what the club needed really.

As long as we still have enough put by for another loan striker of pace and a left centre half then I think I wont need to wank anyone off, everyone would have came in their pants anyway

Thanks, it was the caller's comments I was hoping for. Definitely mentioned Championship but the rest was unintelligible to me.

I thought this was originally some flighty nonsense rumour but it's reported enough by seemingly legit Turkish outlets that it appears to be actually happening. Now the big question is what the teaser tweet would be. I'm hoping cowboy hat and fireworks

Just watched his highlights video on YouTube. Considering they normally make average players look like world beaters… it makes him look like he can barely control the ball.

I’m sure he’ll be better in real life - the staff must be pretty confident if we’re paying anywhere near that sort of money.

Sure.

Coventry City are fucking massive and it’s a move too good to turn down.

His goal record in the last two seasons is good. On average he has played 30 games, so across a 46 game season he would be knocking on the door of twenty goals in each one. The Turkish league is of a fairly reasonable standard, so you would expect that to be replicated in the championship. Throw in that he is a USA international as well, and you have a player there that could turn out to be very good.

For anyone concerned about his season in The Netherlands, It is true he didn't score in the Eredivise, but he was playing for VVV-Venlo, who barely survived relegation and now play in the second league anyway. I wouldn't read into that too much. He was also only 21 at the time.

Obviously the price is eye-watering for us, and that does frighten me a bit, but maybe it is a Simms type deal with it broken down. Either way, it is a statement of intent, and a message to Hamer to sign the fooking contract. Much rather this guy than Waghorn or Walker too, so I think we should get behind it.

I imagine Robins has an idea of what resources he has left. We’re hoping 6-8 more signings or so?

I hope it's Hulk Hogan's 'Real American' entrance music, with Haji Wright stood there in his full Antalyaspor kit for a moment before ripping it into shreds to reveal he's now wearing the new away kit.

Yep, we'll be like Chelsea of the Championship.

I can't see us paying anywhere near the money being reported for this guy tbh. 9M euro on this guy and we can't afford to pay Hamers supposed wage demands? Something doesn't sit right.

So style of play at city next season, front to back ASAP, either direct to Wright and bring the rapid wing back into play .. long diagonals to wing backs balls into box early .. seems we are going to mix it up again this year

Is this part of your routine or did you watch a different video to me?
