Kastaneetr signing got us promoted. The slide that never ended was part of 3-3 draw that galvanised us and gave the belief to win the league

The sample size is as big as any other league, surely?
I’m just looking for an indication that a good goalscoring record in Turkey can translate to a good goalscoring record here.
Hopefully it's announced today. Can't wait for season to begin!Just spoke to a Turkish mad football fan.
he says the big 2 Turkish clubs wanted Wright but couldn’t compete on the transfer fee.
quick, direct, composed in front of goal. … getting better each season .
To score aS many goals as Wright has in a bang average Turkish team is seen as very impressive within Turkey.
Estupinan (scorer of 'the worst hattrick ever') had a slightly better scoring rate at Hull than he did at Denizlispor the season before.

I know the sample size of players who’ve actually made the move is small, I just meant the size of the Turkish league itself is no different to other leagues!It really is a tiny sample size.
There's about 5 or 6, and two of them are Nicolas Anelka and Kevin Campbell! So you have to go way back.

Anelka and Campbell already had well-established records in England of course. The fact that there doesn’t appear to be many (if any) good examples of success in Turkey implying success in England means there is a big question mark over this deal for me. Especially considering his struggles in other leagues where there’s historically been a more established connection (Germany and the Netherlands).
Again - he’s relatively young, he’s got good physical attributes, he’s highly rated, I trust our scouting team. No reason why he can’t be great (and for £7 million, he better be). Great just to be talking about him. But for a club record signing, and given the state of our squad, I’m surprised we’re spending this much on a relatively unknown quantity.

Any young strikers named O'Shea available?If we don’t sign him and get someone else instead then it gives Cov Twitter admin the excuse to use this banger….
Gyokeres will be 75+ next year. I'd suggest Hamer probably sould be too.van Ewijk is 74 I think too. For comparison I think Godden is 69 or 70 and Walker is 68. 71 is average mid table champ player really.
We should have asked for Sporting's summer shortlist and nicked their targets with their cashAmazing that we can afford a fee that top teams in Turkey cannot afford.
Fucking hell are you complaining about this too?Absolutely stonking contract length as well.
I suppose although its not a great comparison his transfer fee is similar to his US strike partner in the World Cup - Timothy Wear
Are we playing some sort of FFP game?Absolutely stonking contract length as well.
Maybe we just believe in him and want to keep him here long as possibleAre we playing some sort of FFP game?

Maybe.
Is 4 years really that crazy? Think normal for top clubs. We perhaps just used to these short term one or two year deals?It does look like an FFP type arrangement

Just limits risk of repeats like current Hamer situation. If he has a good season and clubs come sniffing, we are not held to ransom by 1 yr left etcIt’s the plus one that raises eyebrows. Five year deals are pretty much unheard of for us.

That’s the idea when you sign players on large fees…Absolutely stonking contract length as well.

You’re judging a player on YouTube clips and FIFA ratings. Is there any data driving your opinion or are you complaining for the sake of it?
Where’s your optimism man?! 6 months ago I could not fathom the thought of paying €9m for a player! The signing may not work out - as is the case with any signing - surely you’ve got to judge once you’ve seen the player in person?
You warmingAbsolutely stonking contract length as well.
