Stats are decent to be fair. Bit of everything. Let’s hope he can make the step up in the Championship.

I’m glad this guy recognised what we miss without Hamer. It does worry me that on some threads there’s a number of fans who think Sheaf, Allen, Eccles and Lati is enough for our CM options. We need more.

Torp seems like he’d be a good signing and exactly the kind of out of the box thinking we need to punch above our weight.

At £2.1 million, it could be a bargain.

A number of fans may think it but thank God it doesn't seem Robins does. We've been missing something in CM all season.

Have updated. “Fucking” is a surprisingly international word and used by the Danes. Google translate used “shit” instead which isn’t right at all.

Amount of games we’ve been overridden in midfield. Even in this run we’ve put together, there have been times we have been battered in there. Boro first half being an example.

Norwegian league ranked 21st in the world. If you said we were getting one of the best midfielders from Ligue 2 or LaLiga 2 people would be very excited.

It is possible for good players to be found in otherwise not very good leagues, for all kinds of reasons. The only exception of course being Scotland

Binks was out on loan in Serie B last season and he’s done quite well. So you’re quite right actually!

That list looks a bit iffy and/or out of date but I agree with the sentiment.

Only fucking about mate! Exactly the sort of signing, I agree. Just wish he had a slightly better pedigree and played more at a better level. I guess he's a data signing, like Sakamoto.

pretty sure Tatsu was signed off vibes not data!

didnt a scout go out to watch another player and sakamoto caught their eye?

Fun fact. Torp translates to Croft in English. I only tried it in the hope it translated to an area found in a British home. Dissapointed to say the least.

He covers all of English football and a lot of non league too. Called this his favourite signing of January so far.

I was thinking about this the other day, which player have we signed in recent years that has hit the ground running from literally day 1 and maintained it?

John McGinn was signed from the SPL and that's 17th. Ryan Christie the same, both very good.

I hope this is done before MR's Leicester pre-match interview. Otherwise I'll be dreading the reporter asking him how close the deal is to being done and MR replying " I have know idea what you are on about, me and the team have seen the rumours and are baffled to where they have come from. Currently we have no news on the signing front". SBT meltdown.

In the stands vs Leicester, debut off the bench at Hillsborough then a week later scores the winner to send us into the 5th round. Heard it here first.
