Sounds half Dutch to me!

It's Fox.How creditable is this ?
Is that the fat controller from Thomas The Tank and Friends?If he is then, hats off to the scouts.
Both Cairo and Kastaneer had patchy records of having played, completely different.On the surface this seems a great signing (if it happens), but then again I remember a lot of people on here being equally excited by video clips of Kastaneer last Summer, and another from the Dutch leagues from way back, Ellery Cairo. While there has been no confirmation from MR or the club that there is anything in this, there's every chance this could just be an elaborate hoax, maybe aimed at drumming up interest by his club or agent.
Scouting is rather close to Baden-Powell, which is a touchy subject these daysWhy is nobody posting scouting videos?
Hamer is highly rated in Holland and statically one of the most creative youth players in Europe. Stats don’t lie...
Our success rate with Dutch ‘superstars’ is not great.
Gunnarsson came from the same league as Georgie about 10 years later.Holland on the whole does seem to be a very hit and miss league to sign from, esp strikers. Prolific marksmen look like they couldn't hit a barn door here (of course there are exceptions like RVN etc)
Last player of this type we signed from Holland was probably Boateng, so if he can follow that we'll be doing well.
Not sure but that tweet that went around yesterday showing u/23 creators across Europe would imply he is a dead ball specialist.He’s said to be ‘one of most creative young midfielders in Europe’. Anyone know what his assist tally is like?

Yes, some of those tackles on the video worried me. Hope he isn't another Kastaneer when it comes to dubious challenges.I’ve looked pretty extensively on Hamer from What I can gather is he loves a tackle picks up yellow cards Can pass at range off both feet & his set pieces are likened to Christian Erikson
Looks a natural holding midfielder to me who can bomb on who can also fill in at right back,This season he has played in 25 matches. Scored 4 created 6 and had 8 yellows.
Played as a CM,RB,RW and DM in them games
Aron has had a good career, but with us I think he suffered from the Stephen Hughes Syndrome of having a great first season before becoming mired in the standard "it's Cov, innit?" apathy of the time (Clinton Morrison TM). Me and my mate used to pull our hair out over his long throws going nowhere, too. Then you'd see him for Cardiff or Iceland and it would suddenly be impossible to deal with them!Gunnarsson came from the same league as Georgie about 10 years later.
Looks a very good player, hope we sign him and he does well. The stats look impressive, if his team mates could finish his assist tally would be double as he was creating some great chances and they fluffed pretty much all of them.
Regarding Kastaneer I remember the Breda Fans saying he was lazy and ultimately that rang true unfortunately.

The thing with Kasteneer is we haven’t really seen him play that much from what little I’ve seen he’s certainly not useless but there’s obvious fitness issues and not that obvious what his best position is, I’d still give him a fresh start and you never know, he’s on contract so nothing to lose.Hamer is a star player at his club and fans are disappointed to see him go. Also he plays regularly in the top flight. Kasteener most of us got wrong.
@Nick right nowYes, some of those tackles on the video worried me. Hope he isn't another Kastaneer when it comes to dubious challenges.
Holland produce good technical players

Bruce?
Kasta could be a terrific playerI’ll be honest here, I thought Kastaneer was going to be a v good signing. Judging from the various comments about him from @better days - he just didn’t seem apply himself at all. (Please correct me if that’s not an unfair characterisation)
I only asked the latter friend in September when I was travelling around Italy - by then, questions were being asked about his fitness and so on.
