The fact he's got a long term injury goes some way to detracting from his height and pace at the moment.

Oh dear … wonder what that (probably) innocently intended comment will unleash …

Ditto to the nth factorial

… or bringing in replacements

Yes. Getting shot of a player who no longer wants to be here, to be replaced by a player who doesn’t really want to be here either.

Mayuka ?

Just hope this isn’t the 2023 version of Gakpo

Don’t worry we can sell him back to Genk in January or next summer for half the price if it doesn’t work out.

The Million Manhoef rumour certainly stood the test of time …

Yes, thanks.

And Larios.

Tell it to kids today, and they won’t believe you.

Can only hope he’s right. Otherwise we can file it with the Sunday evening post from summer 2003 that Rupert Lowe had been spotted driving into Birmingham on the Aston Expressway and therefore we had to be signing an England international striker from Villa. (Name escapes me but he eventually signed for Man City). Internet at its finest.

Might be more protracted trying to buy outright than a tie up a loan this late in the window. Would hope for an option to buy at end of season though

Yes, definitely a class player and a cut above Delgado I agree. But as I recall he was our record signing at the time, so that doesn't really sit comfortably with the bit I've highlighted in your post. I think we signed him in the December, and I'm not sure if we saw him play that season.

From what I’ve read on here, he hasn’t played since January, and might not be available until October. All in all seems a gamble. Has the hallmarks of being up there with the signings of Charlie George and Augustin Delgado. Perhaps it’ll be a return to the David Connolly days, potentially being our best striker bar none if he doesn’t spend time in the treatment room.

Shit in defence though. Always moaning about what's expected of them when it comes to marking.

Any likelihood of that ?

Hinting at a comeback??

From the YouTube films Miovski appears to offer more, height, and a couple of headed goals. if anyone knows the best option it’ll be Mowbray as I think he recruited both for Aberdeen.

Even more of a moronic choice having listened to it. (But it will piss away fans off)

Shame. I was hoping after Brendan had done his raids on us for £15m, that Lyanco would go on and be as successful for him as Vestergaard and Bertrand had been.

Heads already at St Mary’s.

That’ll go down well, improve relationships, and help our negotiations for Wood.

Immediate response is to agree with the OP. Don’t like it, just Americanising the game for no purpose. Have to agree that it’s ‘foam hands’ , crap, really naff, tinpot, and ‘noddy’ even. Taking my miserable old bastard head off for a minute though, three positives: 1)it does seem to be enjoyed by a fair number, young and old in all sections of the ground 2)Vastly better than when they used to play ‘I feel good’ 3)It must really get on the away fan’s tits, standing in silence having seen their team concede to witness the nauseating spectacle. ( For that purpose alone I was quite content with it yesterday thinking how it would wind those gobbier cunts up).
