Or, if that still falls foul of esc rules, If Rovers really want him, they could just agree a deal in advance to conclude on 1st Jan

Obviously either selling or not registering some of our worse players.

🤦‍♂️

🙄

Great shout actually, maybe that is the plan.

Where does that leave us in terms of squad registration if you get your 5 signings you want?

Nixon still pushing that Baradji is signing, we obviously can't sign him and Henriksson due to ESC places.

If Baradji needs surgery and is out for a few months, then he wouldn't have to be registered in the squad if I am right? Or, if that falls foul of esc rules, we could just agree a deal in advance to conclude on 1st Jan By the January window, at least one of Toth & Kargbo should have qualified for a standard work permit, so we will have a free esc slot regardless of what happens with Mafoumbi

One of his biggest assets was winning the ball high in the pitch.

On a side note. Wolfe who just joined Wolves came for £12m. He came from Norwegian top flight to AZ Alkmaar in the Netherlands and now signed for Wolves for 10 times more. Also Gyokeres who just joined Arsenal and played for Coventry came from Allsvenskan. Lots of talents have erupted from the scandi leagues.

We have both mentioned similar. Don't think we are looking for a typical "right winger", but someone to help the right back when out of possession, but drift inside to make a second "10" when we have the ball

The pay as you play deal and the stalwart make sense.

Nixon reckons we are still after this guy but would be out for 2 months?

Can he cut it in the championship?

Think he can be both box to box as backup for Trav and also to Cantwell. To an extent also play as a winger. Spurs paid 8,5m for Lucas Bergvall from Allsvenskan. Henriksson actually hits better stats last season than Bergvall. a promising one this. Allsvenskan is a good league.

I did think Baradji would take that role, so maybe they see this guy as the right sided player we have been after.

Wonder if VI has any say in this deal. Maybe he is a player he likes/ fits into his plans?

Looking at clips, he seems able to come off the right to good effect., Allowing the full back to overlap, Id have him pegged as starting on the right, when everyone is fit, but also able to cover Cantwell

Pretty sure he's a number 10 isn't he? So backup for Cantwell.

He's played central midfield mostly for his club, but seems very attacking. Seems like he can be back up for both Cantwell and Trav.

Nope, apparently got a knee injury as soon as he joined them though which ended his season

I assume this new guy plays in 1 of the 3 attacking positions, rather than 1 of the 2 centre mid slots. (Just guessing, I dunno for sure)

In fairness he was absolutely prolific at youth level, not sure what's gone on since, injuries, possibly home sick as well, either way it's been a waste of time for all parties. Does anyone know if he even played when he went on loan to Lierse? Can't see any records 🤔

No it isn’t. They’ve had a social media team with their players for years. All good fun, but no different than previous seasons… or anywhere else.

Once they have shipped out Travis & Buckley, We have Tronstad, Henriksson (if he will play that far back), Tavares, Montgomery (and Forshaw to come off the bench to shore up games) Imagine Forshaw is also seen as "insurance" if they receive an offer they cannot refuse for Tronstad (which considering those in charge, will probably be anything over a million)
