How familiar were you with the signings we've made so far? Not meant as a jab as I'd not heard of Van Ewijk and Sakamoto before we were linked with them and they both come highly rated, if we're bidding a decent amount for this player I'd assume the scouts have had a proper look at him and he's got an impressive record to boot

Tbh the way we're going it's all a bit of a stab in the dark. We've no idea how they'll settle and adapt into this division even if we've heard of them!

Maybe dragus was also in the plans as well as this guy , can't see us going from 1 extreme to the other, maybe we wanted both . Vente I believe now was never a thing

I think that would be the logical conclusion and as Brighton said above, this one has been in the works a while.

Whether this happens or not I think the fact this is so unlike the past god knows how many years that I find it all really unsettling! Gutted to be missing the first 3 games of the season as it's going to be really interesting seeing how we shape up, who plays where etc.

Coventry agree 11m deal for Haji Wright

9m + 2m in add ons and a 20% sell on clause :eek: The lad looked poor for USA at the world cup and fans of Turkish league clubs are laughing at the fee Scored a decent amount for a mid table team like, but between him and simms that's a wedge of the gyokeres money gone

They can't help themselves....

Not arsed what they think , they've signed loads of kids and weetabix legs Bradley dack

I don’t think you’d go from a few million for Dragus to double that for this guy overnight. Presume we wanted both.

 

[fatso]

I’m gonna have to erase the internet from my life somehow.

“Gutted we’re not getting McNally back”, after signing 3 CB’s.

“Gutted Dragus isn’t coming”. After watching a short reel of highlights, and not knowing of his existence prior to the rumour.

“Absolutely buzzing, Haji Wright!” Same as above.

It really looks like people are happy to sign anyone because unusually we’re spending a lot of money on them. I feel if I start being sick, I won’t stop.

Agreed, the fact that we were shite against Exeter doesn't matter as it was a "friendly,"

But those that are ignoring the shite performance would be proclaiming automatic promotion if we'd of won 4 or 5 nill.

Yes this deal is not something the club has just decided this morning playing rock paper scissors

He is a big Haji wright fan lol. I hope he brings his account to the sky blues now

Anyone else sense a hint of sarcasm in that tweet

I mean , being shit in pre season is the very definition of who cares though isn't it , always has been

No , he sounds like the Turkish version of dalraj gaming

 

[SkyblueDad]

Let’s be honest hardly any of us had heard of this fella, IF and I have put a big if it’s confirmed he is signed it will be on the back of plenty of scrutiny, study etc, we have a proper scouting system now the scout we nicked off Leicester was their foreign scout.
I have plenty of confidence in our manager to get it right or even Wright and when they go for players they improve our squad and have potential to improve themselves.

Had many a tug over Miley in my late teens

Profile says 33, Miley is 30. Late teens...

I bet his missus is chuffed he moved to sunderland

 

[Senior Vick from Alicante]

I can see Robins signing him but I think the reported price will be well wide of the mark. I don't know how accurate transfer market is but they have him at 6 million euros and if the selling club needs the cash as reported it could be a lot lower.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Surely its more likely to be £4m upfront, structured extremely similar to Simms?

Not what is reported in Turkey. They are saying 7mil plus bonuses

Except for when you bag loads of goals, in which case we're going to piss the league.

You can't have it both ways, they either matter or they don't.

It's always the same on here, the same people getting a hard on over Wright were jerking off over Walker and waghorn last year.

Maybe they wanted to announce this guy in the away shirt

Next you'll be telling me it wasn't acceptable to find Hermione fit from the 4th Harry Potter film

Ah sorry mate , will just keep quiet

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

Asked the question because i lauighed and thought fuckoff is this happening

It Is apparently

At least you didn't offer to put your money where your mouth is...

 

[SkyBlue_Bear83]

Wow wow wow, big money to be spending

 

[David O'Day]

she's meant to be about 15 in that film?

My head cannot accept for one second we might be spending that kind of money on a transfer.

It just feels like a massive risk if he doesn't succeed.

 

[Happy_Martian]

As much as I'm enjoying us basically putting in a football manager cheat code, does anyone else feel like this is a high risk strategy? What if this crop of players do not settle well etc...

Yes, but you could argue that any transfer is a risk, from here or abroad. Same could happen with players from Scotland, Ireland, heck we had that young lad from Swansea that lasted one training session.

And when they get here, we find they can't cope with our style of play. It's a risk but you make decisions on what you know and the rest is chance.

 

[David O'Day]

well it's your laptop that's going to get lifted

I hope your right, if he can get a partnership going with Simms we'd have a very formidable and powerful attack, but if it doesn't work out its a very expensive mistake. (If the fee quoted is correct)

On paper he certainly looks ready for a challenge in the championship, and he looks like he has some pace and power, in the Vik style.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Looks class in the air. Bout time we got someone who was able to get on the end of crosses which we seemed to put in the box last year even if Allen was the only person in there.

 

[David O'Day]

Wonder what the venn of people who whinge that we don't sign anyone and those who whinge when we do is?

 

[Finham]

I do. Plus is this guy really worth that? I get that he has probably improved a lot since then, but 0/22 in Holland isn't great.

Its a classic case of moan we dont spend money then moan we spend too much
