Is the danish lad actually a striker or another winger?

So was Wharton. Didn't stop them

The presents havent even arrived yet!

Ismael at the Q&A said he wanted players proven in the championship who don't need 3 or 4 weeks to get up to speed with fitness and the league. Neither of these signings fit that. £3.5m on a player who has been benched or come on as a late sub in Bodos biggest games in champs league this season doesnt seem right to me.

We have a years option on his deal. Yeah I do think we would turn down £4 million for him as he has improvement in him and has been here a few months . Breaks into the Nigeria 11 more exposure and his price will rise. Il bet now he will be here when the window shuts.

You think venkys would turn down a 4million bid from a prem club bought for 500k in the summer with less than 2 years on the contract? Fair play I think the opposite I think any sniff of a bid of that amount and he will be gone

I expected to read it was Mads Jorgensen we are after, and Gestede had been playing FM 2010.

I bet Christmas mornings in your house were a hoot.

If Dønnum is a permanent then I will give Mr Gestede a clap.

So who we getting then? A striker and winger? Still woefully short. Think we need a QUALITY ball carrying CM- another winger/wing back and an extra striker. Basically quality through the middle, wide and up top. One or two injuries and we're back to square one..

Has Donnun been starting for Toulouse? If so makes no sense for them to be loaning him out.They paid 4.5 million for him 24/25

Oh really or a shot in the dark?

Oh ffs, can't you let me get excited for 2mins??? I care more about the racism than the ban...

If they pay the money and like I said I think at the moment 4 million tops which I don't think we would accept .

Not a difficult decision.

If they’re concerned at the prospect of empty seats at Ewood, they would have acted 12 years ago..

Big Merce has potentially had a blinder here. Leaving all other supposed ITK's in the dust. The skeptic in me will continue to assume the books will be balanced in one way or another before the window closes. Very, very rare that we exit a transfer window with a net positive spend. Would expect the Toulouse lad to be a loan - maybe putting himself in the window for other English clubs higher up the pyramid, if his missus is playing over here. If we assume the EUR 3.5m to be inclusive of clauses for the other fella, then potentially the sale of Pickering alongside Gueye might offset the initial cost. The only other player I can think of who would fetch at least £500k and who is clearly out of favour.

Of a prem team like Everton are genuinely interested he’s gone

If he’s left footed he could be the new left wing back.

Donnun a loan

What's this about a bid for the club?

Why would we have to sell him in the summer though?He is under contract and we would still have another year's option on his deal I think it's very early I just really don't see him going unless a team comes in with a ridiculous offer which I don't see happening. He has had a few excellent months in the championship but its vert early days. Might have been different if he had seen more minutes for Nigeria and impressed

Do FA bans transfer nations?

Crack the red

So long as the name doesn’t rhyme with Tronstad, Alebiosu or Gudjohnsen, does it matter?
