January Transfer Rumours

Likes to try and break the back of the net.....

Can't we just sign him on a low wage contract to play in the development team whilst he builds his fitness? Then, if he proves himself, have a proviso that he is considered for the first team with suitable appearance money? And a full contract next season?

Is that imaginative or just wishful thinking?

What!? The ONLY reasons to enlist a player in January is to either save a perilous situation OR consolidate a decent season and push on for promotion.
Aside from a few seriously rich and well-funded clubs, nobody can afford to bring in players for "next season" at this juncture.
Any player we sign now must be able to slot in straight away, hit the ground running with no fitness or injury worries and no rustiness. They've got to be capable of playing 90 minutes 20 times in next 4 months. If they do not meet that criteria it is an utter waste of time and money bringing them in.

You think a player who was playing and scoring in the Europa Conference League last season is going to come here for peanuts and play with the kids to prove himself? Really!

I'll go on record and say this guy looks like a mistake. There's some nice clips of him finding space in the box granted, that's something niether of our current options ever ever do. But it screams of average, injury prone hit and hope last chance saloon. A 29 year old striker who looks 40, that can't find a spot in a decent tier European club. Dunno something feels off.

Loan till the end, why not i guess, please don't sign or buy.

This guy looks very average. All strikers have a spell where they score a few goals. Look at Washington and bonne! Both were crap. Id rather we got a prem striker in on loan or failing that a foreign one who is from a decent club in a decent league. He looks like another polter. No thanks

We do like to write off players before they have even signed based on a few you tube clips.

an experienced striker with European experience in an area we are desperately short in

a short term deal until the end of the season makes sense.

better option than Chris Martin

I would have asked Bayern Munich if they would loan us Harry Kane for £15k a week. A much better option in my humble opinion!

Still smells of average.

So youve seen him play for us! Amazing your knowledge of him without putting a hoops shirt on, unbelievable quote

[Where's waddock]

Well if he is average that should improve the quality of the team

You have to admire Brighton's scouting, they have got the South American market sorted.
