I know a couple don’t but I like the signing think he could do a job for us in the ten role. If your source ain’t pulling the leg, any idea on length?

I'm with you on this one. Think it's a smart short term signing assuming he's committed.

Great to have some brazilian flair again.

Sounds like a short term move to see us through a 'written off' season while we find a target for the same position in the summer?

Give him a chance. A bit of experience for the younger players.

Turned down time and time again, and now we're supposed to be ever so thankful that he's decided to come to us at 33 years old.

Don't care if he's turned us down in the past, if it's even true. Prepared to give him a chance

It's a transfer that should have been done years ago

We're not exactly in a position to be choosy at the moment so I can look past him knocking us back way back when

He's a free agent. Released by Charlotte FC as he couldn't get in their team. 45mins of competitive football since May.

We’ve been crying out for some experience and leadership. Even if he doesn’t start, he’ll help the lads out in training and in the changing room.

Am more amused than horrified by the prospect of him joining... I would say more of a Sean Mcguire punt than Waghorn!

Tbh at that moment in time, taking all sentiment out Swansea seemed a better career move, they were defeated play off finalists the previous season and we were a relatively new championship side

They probably blew us out the water on wages as well

Unfortunately I watch them more than I’d like to, which is why I’m also not as high on grimes and darling as others. poor signing, most fans glad to see him leave, some of the season ticket holders said he was a bad egg there under a couple of the managers believed his own hype. He’s gone from there to playing reserve team football in the states. In no way is this a sign of positive things to come
