For anybody who likes stats his FBref profile has full coverage because he is from the Erdivisie:

This compares him to players in the 8 leagues that OPTA consider equivalent to the Championship.
I love this stuff I wish I was more aware of the various resources available.

Surely too much noise to not, but as others have said. Until that handshake with Robins and holding scarf photo, I can't officially get too excited.

The fact that it's exciting to even just be discussing such deals and exciting young talents is amazing. What a time to be a Coventry supporter.
There’s a lot of noise but most of it seems to be repeating the same couple of points and we can’t be sure how true they are. Seems to have now been picked up by a few more reputable accounts though so here’s hoping.

Some proper tongue twister names being signed up.

Think I've mastered Joel Latibeaudiere and Tatsuhiro Sakamoto now we're looking at Van Ewijk which judging from the Dutch commentary sounds like it's 'FVON AY-VAKE'

Could be wrong though...

Honestly the thing I was most excited for if we got promotion was the amount of stats that would be readily available. Straight into my veins please.

Oh god he’s going to get a chant calling him “van eew ij ku” isn’t he?

Absolutely. The lack of stats at the lower levels (or at least ease of access) is frustrating. In L1/2 it was sometimes a struggle to find even the most basic information.

Sign this lad and we'll see the system we use come alive for probably the first time since we've been using it - wing backs on both sides bombing forward. Starting to see how we're negating the loss of Vik by adding real quality to different parts of the pitch. It's very exciting.

Having actual pace on the wings amplifies the qualities of Hamer and Sheaf too, who haven't always had the best options in the wider areas of the pitch in an attacking sense.
You can see we’re targeting players who can replace Vik’s ability to drag us up the pitch.

Tatsu - direct dribbler
MvE - direct dribbler
Dragus- direct dribbler

The difference will push us to next level

Dabo was lower championship standard

BNC was a good solid option(and at his age would love him back to see him continue to get better)

But if this guy is as good as we hope it's going to give us even more from such an important position.

Hopefully JCS will give us a lot from the left too. We know bidwell will continue to be a solid option. Be nice to have a maatsen type back though
I’m a bit confused by the reference to JCS?

Stop it
Looks great don't it

Imagine JCS only signed cos better than bidwell so he should start first game if fit I assume.

But much more strength in depth now. Probably expect another 4 signings on top of van ewjwk too

We can get a very good left footed centre half in ..and that starting 11 is starting to look extremely top 6 😂
