Brereton will never ever make it at Villarreal.
I predict he will be back in the Championship within 12 months.
Absolutely guaranteed

How funny is Gallagher? How did he miss that tap in.

Looks like another left winger. Odd.
Anything in the Ugbo rumours?

Yeah not really sure how that will work. BBD is not a lone central striker. Wants to run facing goal.
No issues for Chile playing through the middle

Why ecstatic? That seems strong.
I'm struggling to understand why some people are so delighted at the prospect of Undav. Yes his goals record is decent, but how good is the Belgian league really? Some strong sides better than us, but several we would likely paste. I admit I don't know it well, but always seemed a bit SPL-y to me.
He had ONE season in the top Belgian league, with a good goals record, and 8 goalless Prem games (amounting to less than 90 minutes total I was told). Before that, his football took place in the Belgian second tier (one season), German third tier (two seasons) and the German fourth tier (four seasons), and I can't say I put any stock at all in those leagues.
I'd class it as a decent, potentially interesting signing that certainly may turn out well if we manage it (after all, Brighton rated him enough to pay a few million, but only similar to what we paid for Gally and look how that turned out...a transfer fee is no guarantee of quality). But ecstatic seems a stretch, personally. I think people are just pleasantly surprised we are chasing a 26-year old striker that has actually scored goals at a good rate somewhere, and not really thinking the profile and accomplishments of the player through that much.
He's also 5 ft 10, just for those who are convinced we need to stick a big lump up top.
I think you’ve answered your question, a few times in your post.
There was a shocking amount of Belgian football on the tv during covid and I watched Union games, several times. Undav is impressive, he and I think his name was Vranier, had a great partnership up front. Good finisher and great instincts, good record at a decent level, good enough for Brighton to take him in the prem. Needs a run of games and would a perfect number 9 in our system.
-
I must have missed the report that said Undav is definitely off. All I see is that it’s taking a while, big deal. Still on
Would be ecstatic if we get him.
Ugbo lad ticks a lot of boxes but hope it’s not a loan
-
Hopefully we can put Breo through the middle with Dack now.
Undav next please

That doesn't sound too likely, as we signed Kalinic for 6 million not long later.
Christ, forgot all about Kalinic. 7 goals in 44 appearances for us. Shocking. Went on to have a terrific career.
Cant believe we haven’t signed someone yet but it’s just the cup at the weekend, so no real rush if they can wait, but we need 3 in I think.
I think someone might panic and stump up the cash for Brereton since he hasn’t signed yet, maybe West Ham or Leeds or Everton, and the longer it goes on the more chance this has of happeneing.
Get Undav in on a permanent, loan Gelhardt and O’Brien from forest.
I’d take Portoeus cause it will be a bit of a bargain if he fancies us instead of Watford.(Sure is closer to Edinburgh)
-
If its Undav or Gelhardt, I am firmly in the Undav camp.

Tell ye, I’m pretty excited about the prospect of Undav, think he is just what we are missing. Be pretty impressed if Broughton pulls it off.

Hoping for Porteous, Geldhart/Undav and Haikin by the end of next week. I can dream…
And O’Brien. That would give us a real shot at playoffs imo.

Oh well, its sounds like we have signed the best midfielder in the championship last year, absolutely delighted with that move when it come through, interested to see what Sorba brings. Breo stay for the campaign.
Hardly a disaster
