Hope im wrong but seems another clive platt
On money grounds only. As a player seems more a JCH / Max type - we still need nippy strikerMy feelings is that the Chaplin deal is over now that Bakayoko is through the door.
I've heard we enquired about Bakayoko before but at that point the money Walsall wanted was too much. The fact he's now in the building makes me think he was the one that could happen very quickly that Robin's talked about. My opinion is that this means the end to Chaplin deal. How would he even fit now?
When did a manager ever know any better than the fans?I’m going all out, and saying I like him. I trust MR and the other managers who bid or were interested I am certain they know better than us. Said before think we are going to be a threat up front. Still want and hopeful of Chaplin coming in.
George Thomas had a record that was similar to Bakayoko in his best season! Adebola's best season here he got 12, he got single figures in his others.
if he is reading this forum it will knock the shit out of his confidence.
It's completely different being slagged off by your own fans and being abused at away grounds.If a few no-marks with ridiculous usernames destroys his confidence by pointing out his career to date, then he won't exactly have the temperament to cope with a hostile atmosphere at the Stadium of Light or elsewhere.
Yeah, it's actual genuine hostility at an away game in front of a big crowd.It's completely different being slagged off by your own fans and being abused at away grounds.

"I write the songs that Bakayoko sings"Barry Manilow Coventry City songs go:-
Knock it up Abu Agogo
Your playing with Amadou Bakayoko
Knock it up Abu Agogo
Take your chances tonight
Dont hit it too hiiiiiigh
Yeah yeah yeah
Do you really??Two weeks ago I said Robbins should have moved on from Chaplin people on here said he would have possible targets lined up I'm unimpressed since then with his dealings judging by comments on here I'm not the only one I said we should sign quality instead of quantity we seem all of a sudden be to able to SPEND money on a player with players in the squad able to cover his position ,We need goals in the team 1 in 10 isn't no good .As for letting Ponticelli go out on loan forget it he is needed here as I've said before best goals per games of any striker on our books and we have a few now. People said I and others were panicking. Here we are two weeks later is the team any stronger? I do hope I'm proved wrong

I've always been a big wham fanTry as I might Rob, I played the game but can't 'name that tune' #miserablefailure
Ha, not again....must be the 5th or 6th of these in the past few days.How many goals had MC goldrick got for forest before he came here . New start for the kid give him a chance to win us over .
McGoldrick always gets rolled out whenever we are signing a forward with a poor reputation, but he had played at a higher level and was a quality product of the Southampton production line. I was really excited by his signing as were my mates and brothers-the only negativity I saw about it was on here! Whereas this bloke seems, from any objective evaluation of his career to date, to be rubbish, and in no way matches the specifications of what we need from a striker at this moment in time. He does seem to represent a massive waste of valuable, rare (for CCFC) transfer fee. The only logic behind it that I can see is that he intends to play him as a wide forward, in which case hopefully there is an actual goalscorer coming in as well. But even then, it's an awful lot of money for a player with a poor record and reputation.
Thomas was younger, in his first full season and almost always played out wide. Adebola had 70 goals in 250 games for Blues and Crewe and had a good reputation there-I'd seen him have some great games for them, including giving top flight opposition the runaround in a televised cup game. Not only that, but he was awesome in the earlier versions of Championship Manager so I was delighted when we signed him! There is quite literally no comparison...George Thomas had a record that was similar to Bakayoko in his best season! Adebola's best season here he got 12, he got single figures in his others.
And there were at least two clubs willing to pay very decent money for him at this level. Robins has said there was significant interest from other clubs, not just 'a' club, other clubs, so other teams are seeing something in him.I don’t think we have the money for a proven 20 goal a season man and if you were at Yeovil at the start of last season you wouldn’t think in million years McNulty would have gone on to be the calm finisher he turned into. He was shite that day and actually did hit a barn door.
Perhaps MR see’s something in the two lads he’s brought in up front and backs himself to turn them into something similar to McNulty.
Let’s give them a chance and hope he’s proved right.
take a look a mcnultys wiki, harry kanes wiki callum wilsons wiki even david mcgoldricks wiki if you looked at them before they done what they done when give the chance i guess you would have missed out on some quality players.I don't understand why clubs have sprawling scouting set-ups when they can obviously just look on Wikipedia to work out if a player is any good or not.
Me watch footballllllllll1 in 10 isn't no good
Think they were interested but I’m sure they have had a change of manager since.It may have been mentioned but I wonder if Leeds are still interested in Jodi Jones and Bakayoko has been bought to fill his shoes when he departs ?! Leaving us still looking for a striker and arguably having sold our two best players.
JJ is happy here and looking forward to playing with Sterling Bayliss and AndreuIt may have been mentioned but I wonder if Leeds are still interested in Jodi Jones and Bakayoko has been bought to fill his shoes when he departs ?!

Just like Adebola then?Seems a really odd signing. He’s also the only player I’ve ever seen to look crap even on a “best bits YouTube clip”. He just never looks like he is in control of the ball.
