But have to issue an apology after putting the hyphen in the wrong placeI predict everyone calls him Vik.
I also predict when he scores from the edge of the area Andy Turner will use the headline Torp-edo

Could sign a former Dutch U20 international from a struggling Eredivisie team insteaad.

As long as the don’t write Tor-pedo
I've always thought picking up good players from the Scandi leagues would be a good market to tap actually, but sure we could just write him off instead.
that was gus mate not milanDifference with Milan is that he was known to the be the fastest player in that league, clearly he was one of the best players in a struggling team, this Torp geezer hasn’t got any particular known strengths, just looks like a midfielder playing for an average Norwegian side. I’m not saying he’s going to be awful I’m just saying it seems a bit underwhelming on the face of it.
I’m not writing him off, I was just hoping for a big money signing with experience and pedigree rather than an U21s player. I’ve been banging on about picking up players from European leagues consistently, I just hoped for a more proven player to fill that ultra important CM spot that’s all.
You could be describing Hamer or Sakamoto perfectly with this post. We'll get much more value from abroad. Looks like smart work to me.
The Norwegian league finishes in DecemberLooks like he hasn't played since December 3rd which isn't ideal, will need a mini pre season.
Was Hamer always going to be good ? Came with a similar profileI’m certainly not writing him off, I said in my original post he could be absolutely anything (amazing or shit) but I was just hoping for a more proven CM to come in from a bigger league with more proven experience, ideally someone a bit taller (5’9 or 5’10 according to some posts online) and just with overall class.
I’m by no means writing him off, I just was hoping for Hamer 2.0 rather than hopeful-Hamer 2.0.
Concerned that his name fits too well with baby shark...

Hamer went for £15m. That’s the kind of money that calibre of player goes for. We aren’t spending that kind of money.I’m certainly not writing him off, I said in my original post he could be absolutely anything (amazing or shit) but I was just hoping for a more proven CM to come in from a bigger league with more proven experience, ideally someone a bit taller (5’9 or 5’10 according to some posts online) and just with overall class.

And the bonus of GIMOC disappearing againTorp signing, a winger or two next. Could be a busy few weeks after all..
"we want the club to follow a Brighton / Brentford model"
*Club signs hitherto unknown player from abroad like Brighton do*
"No, not that one we want to pay top dollar for a 'proven' player"
He’s still sliding !i didn't say that, in fact the only person who mentioned Kasteneer was Mucca Mad Boys.
thanks for playing though, better luck next time

We dont know how much budget is available and the implications of financial fair play on our accounts at the moment. Also to get a signing of the stature you wished for means spending multiple millions of pound on fees and wages. You dont get those type of players in a January transfer window unless you have owners like Sisu.I’m not writing him off, I was just hoping for a big money signing with experience and pedigree rather than an U21s player.

Yeh there's no way Hull and their team full of loanees could possibly go wrong.From a personal point of view , we are close to the play off places , but Hull ,just above us , are making good , English league marquee signings .
I was hoping for an ex prem or good championship player, to come straight in & take us to that higher place .
I wish this lad all the best , hopefully as we all do , but he might take time to acclimatise.
He was talking about Hamer. He's explained that Like someone else said, this is what Brighton do. Find value in leagues others don't bother with. Early signs are we know what we're doing - MvE, Sakamoto - so it might be time to open your mind a bit.
You watched his vid?! Looks to have the skillset we'd want to play alongside Sheaf or Eccles. Also, we're not shopping in the bargain bin here. We're talking about an EFL club handing over €2.5m in Jan. Using the model - sell for loads, replace for less.
English league marquee signings
hull have loaned someone who no one else wants as their attitude on and off the pitch is that badFrom a personal point of view , we are close to the play off places , but Hull ,just above us , are making good , English league marquee signings .

hardly any players on our radar for january atm. king has told robins most likely be summer before we see extra players coming in. unless players leave who need replacing.
godden and moore could be leaving for warmer climates.
If you can name someone who meets your own criteria I'd be seriously impressed. I'd also be surprised if they were realistic financially - we all know we're not dropping anywhere close to £10m on one player to replace Hamer.
