Abdul Fatawu Signs

[KFS]

What I love about the right wing spot at the moment is basically in every game we’ve played Enzo has thrown a wildcard in. That’s important because the clubs we play have zero knowledge of what to expect off that flank. If we play this correctly, we could bamboozle teams for the next couple of games until they wise up with their scouting.

 

Imagine being the Hull fullbacks and we bring on this lad after you’ve been tormented by Yunus for 60 mins.

 

I think this is great. Welcome big guy.

Doesn't appear so, you would expect in the press release it may say so if the case.

 Why do people keep saying this. Our transfer dealings are so intransparent, as if they'd ever tell us. There's been a couple of times were they haven't even announced the retained/released list at the end of the season.

Yeah club didnt tell us, the athletic have. 17 million euro

TransferMarket have his value down as €4m. Clearly going to win the Ballon D'or for us to pay €17m for him in 12months!

Transfermarkt's "values" might be the most irritating feature of any football database out there. They're so absurdly over quoted. 

 

They mean F U C K - A L L.

Errr, sorry.

[Lambert09]

how many bad games before someone claims he’s 42? 

[Scanchez]

I went to uni with this fella.

He's RAPID.

Brendan Rodgers couldn’t find a right winger for years and years. Then Enzo comes in, sees straightaway (like a lot of fans already knew) that  he’s got two U23’s in place that can do the role and then he buys two more with no problem, both with Champions League experience and both happy to play in the Championship to further their career. Wtf was Rodgers doing? 

[adamkhalifa]

Really not sure about this guy. 

The lower league might get something out of him. 

Wish him the best though. 

[Finn Claw II]

With all these wingers it’s possible we let Daka go without replacing with an out and out striker.  
 

AFCON is a curve ball though as that means relying on Vardy.

 

Daka, Soumane out and hopefully we are done.

If hes a world beater, £17m will feel like a bag of chips. Rudkin's summer window rating 8/10

Still has two keepers to shift to get that high of a rating

Driving back up from Kent, I have only just seen we have confirmed it!

Wonder how long it is until we’re saying Abdul go back

The fact that nobody called Abdul has ever been a good footballer is a slight concern, but there's a first time for everything.

He’s basically a quicker Amartey with better dancing skills.

Tetê ? 

[RowlattsFox]

It's a pretty random pick up so either a scout has found a gem or we've been done by an agent.

Can you give me a clue when you're going to start a new thread - I've got to pop out and do some shopping at some point.

He said a right winger - they're generally expected to take a man on. Tetê played like Gandalf was stood in front of him for 90 minutes.

[FoyleFox]

 

Madders has left his dress sense for a new signing, I see.

[Wasyls Pec Deck]

There’s only one Abdul Fatawu Issahaku!

None of our current wingers are ready for the Premier League let alone a relegation scrap. Most championship teams will give us a false impression of player quality. Chuck in some premier league quality defenders and our current team's indiscipline and quality would be severely exposed. Tete was meant to be top quality too but the Premier League is a different beast to Youtube reels. Actually it's telling you just don't get the kind of Youtube reels for Premier league based players as you do for players coming from another top European league. 

[Levi Port]

Looks very very raw, but his left foot is a cannon and he's quick and strong. He's going to get at least 2 screamers this year but also frustrate us all no end and knock a small girl out in the kop, Yaya Toure esk. If he's willing to work on his game with Enzo he could be an animal in this league.

But has anyone coined a terrible nickname yet? With Ian Nacho possibly leaving and Timmy Chestnuts out the door, we'll be seriously lacking in the key cringe positions.

 

 

...we will just have to call him Eddie....!!!

... Writing lots in little notebooks. 

[Phenom]

Was once regarded as the best African prospect of his generation and is still only 19 with 14 senior caps for a decent international team. I like this loan signing.
