StriderHiryu Posted 23 January 2020 Posted 23 January 2020 Got to improve those defensive work rate stats to play for Leicester City! His other strengths are fairly tasty though!
kingfox Posted 23 January 2020 Posted 23 January 2020 Holland have a number of good young wingers coming through. A raw talent but the Eredivisie is probably the most hit and miss league to sign players from, gems and flops galore have come from the Eredivisie to the Premier League. A loan deal would make better sense tbf, spending big on an unproven talent like him would be a gamble.
baldeagle Posted 23 January 2020 Posted 23 January 2020 Did no one learn anything from the Tielemans loan .
copunk Posted 23 January 2020 Posted 23 January 2020 Imagine him and Ricardo on the same side of the pitch 😱

Ric Flair Posted 23 January 2020 Posted 23 January 2020 Typical we would get Bergwijn just as Barnes starts doing the business. He's best as a left winger, maybe move Harvey up front long term. I still want Bergwijn.
frany104 Posted 23 January 2020 Posted 23 January 2020 Great signing if true. Loads of potential to improve. Exactly the sort of player we should be looking at. Love the pace of him.

I don't think it's an outlandish signing at all either, from the player's perspective Leicester is a superb club to go to. Totally agree. People said we had no chance of getting Ricardo or Tielemans but we did and now they're flying. He'd prob double his wages & great manager & great owners & brand spanking new training facilities coming soon - we're an attractive proposition for a player like him.

I’m convinced Brendan fancies Barnes up front, he ticks all the boxes and has the ingredients to make a fantastic number 9.

I don’t remember people saying that about Ricardo or Tielemans. Certainly not Ricardo.

If he does well, his value rockets like Tielemans and they get a nice pay day. If he flops, they can keep him as hes clearly a key player for them.
Tuna Posted 23 January 2020 Posted 23 January 2020 Never heard of him but encouraged by the reactions on here. So, erm, Gerrimin.

ScouseFox Posted 23 January 2020 Posted 23 January 2020 never heard of him but he looks constantly pissed off and has a celebration that i can do at 5 am after 18 hours on the ale. sort it out NOW.
Stadt Posted 23 January 2020 Posted 23 January 2020 Getting players in on a loan with possibility of signing them permanently makes so much sense. Football clubs are so stupid lmao
Grebfromgrebland Posted 23 January 2020 Posted 23 January 2020 Though exciting to be linked with a player he doesn't look good enough to break into our first team yet. He looks like he'll need quite a bit of development. This is based purely on a YouTube video.
Guest SO1 Posted 23 January 2020 Posted 23 January 2020 @Stadt Exactly. As in paying for a known quantity. Don't care if he sets the world on fire when he comes here. Just want Rodgers to work with him and get a feel for his ability and where his head is at. Then we can splash the cash accordingly.

Usually very little for the potential seller, which is why it’s not usually a matter of teams being “stupid” but selling clubs almost never offering the option.
adam Posted 24 January 2020 Posted 24 January 2020 Never heard of him but quite enjoyed the tune on his YouTube video so it's a yes from me.
Dan Posted 24 January 2020 Posted 24 January 2020 Makes me wonder what we'd actually be paying to get him on loan. Trying to think what's really in it for PSV to loan him to us - obviously the potential of signing him permanently but surely that leaves open the option of us not signing him too, meaning they lost him for 6 months for what? Don't get me wrong Bergwijn on loan, with a view to permanent would be superb stuff, exactly the type of profile I want to see us going for and stylistically what I want to see as well - when we played Man City and Liverpool I felt we just lacked any serious threat bar Vardy. I want him to be a Zaha / Adama type player.

I don't think it's an outlandish signing at all either, from the player's perspective Leicester is a superb club to go to. Memphis Depay, the last highly rated winger PSV had went straight to Man United and flopped because it was too big a move too soon. He has since reinvented himself at Lyon in France and been their best player, so he's still proven to be a good if not great player. For Bergwijn he can transfer to a club that plays high intensity technical football but without the pressure of having to perform every week. Perfect for a player in his early 20's to develop his game until he becomes a world beater, if he's got that in him. He's honestly the type of player I expected us to sign in the summer, the other being Hwang Hee Chan of Salzburg. Both are technical players, young, experienced but with plenty of room to grow. The types of player that Rodgers would have a field day with. Whether we get either of those two I don't know, but we will get someone like it I am certain. One of the big pluses we have is that we are literally proving ourselves to be a club you should sign for if you are a young up and comer; you will play regularly, you will improve and there is a high chance you will leave for a crazy fee and wage if you are good enough. 3 hours ago, StriderHiryu said: Got to improve those defensive work rate stats to play for Leicester City!

Their records at this level are shocking for what they would cost, similar to Maguire figures. Fast, physical, goal scoring forward with a high work rate able to play anywhere across the front 3? Can't believe people would seriously take Zaha/Adama over Antonio, their records are night and day.

I’m beginning to feel like @SheppyFox with all this angst Well one thing I’d say is that despite looking really promising you never know if he can make the step up or not. Three players in recent seasons that left Holland on big moves have been Justin Kluivert, De Jong and De Ligt and none of them have torn up any trees yet, even if eventually they might all come good. I like this player a lot too and definitely think he has massive potential, but don’t see him as a slam dunk. It could definitely go either way with him whereas players like Neres and Ziyech I think would be more of a guarantee. But again I think that’s the sort of club we will be; we will pick up high potential players instead of proven ones and more times than not will improve said player.
TheLittleBigMan Posted 24 January 2020 Posted 24 January 2020 Yes please!! Big stiffy time if this goes through!
