Haven't slagged him off. Just said it reminded me of Baka - a striker with "qualities" and "potential" but hasn't done it yet.

If a player has reached his potential and "done it" he isn't likely to sign for us or if he does he'll be no better than what we actually have.

Have been thinking for a while we need a promising striker for the U23’s. Bremang clearly nowhere near good enough and it’s always worth taking a punt on a young athletic striker as long as it’s not going to cost much

Thought it was fairly widely accepted that Bremang isn't going to develop to the level we need. If he's released and this lad takes over as number 9 in the U23s with a higher potential and a couple of seasons to develop there, then it's a good deal, surely?

There's Harrison Nee in the Under 18s. Current top scorer in our division.

He looks to have bags of potential anyone who has Instagram there are probably 20-30 clips of him in action some first team most in academy 50 goals in 2 seasons but as we know Ponti used to score for fun at that level.

If this is true I think he’ll be on some first team duty, 9 subs now isn’t it so that’s where he will on the bench get a few minutes here and there. Right age and will have been well scouted.
Let’s see if it’s true but he would make two young recent signings with him and Matty Reid both permenant.

Well I'm surprised and he's costing a fee payable from joys purse I can only think she upgraded to a clutch bag with james and ried coming in and no income for the club ifollow and membership apart from club sponsors advertising.
Have we a secret money tree?

I'm Not going to make the mistake of every signing we've ever made and suggest I'm excited and he can do well etc etc...

This doesn't fill me with any sort of enjoyment, and its one I can't understand... I'd understand it if we were in league 1 and 2... But at this level? Not sure

Cheap risk 1 that could pay off down the line if potential comes off he looks totally different to anything else we currently have at the club

Thing is I'm not sure these cheap risks are as worth it if we stay in the championship... Apparantly we buy based of statistical analysis... Can anybody tell me what his stats show that's made us go in?

50 in 2 seasons at academy level looks to have bags of skill think he’s played 17 times mainly sub appearances scored twice at senior level I read he was 18 but then I’ve also read he’s 20 lol

Have some faith in the recruitment team, they haven’t don’t badly so far have they? He’s unlikely to have cost a lot due to reasons youve already stated but they obviously think there’s a player in there who is worth taking a punt on.

No because we don't have access to the same stats that the recruitment team do.

It's not just goals and assists.

How long before someone on here has a mate who knows him, or works with a fan of his who reckons he's the next Harry Kane.

He is a pacy player and we need a bit of pace in the attack and we cannot afford a prolific striker so hopefully this signing comes off if not I wont be disappointed

No robins just didn’t do all his budget in the summer 😁

Or budget has become available due to the departures of Hillsner, Camp, Giles and potentially Kasta as well as from the upcoming Sky matches this month which should bring in, in excess of £200k.

I don't know why you continue to tag me in your inane posts as I've reiterated this to you before. I've even said previously that our transfer business is probably going to be dependant on moving players on in order to make room in the budget. This has been a mainstay policy since Robins' arrival for the January transfer window. I'm unsure why you think now - during which time football clubs are running on fumes - you think it's business as usual?
