Luuk de Jong signs for PSV


Recommended Posts

Love a dutch forward, and it looks like we've got one with some potential. Just 23 years old.

 

Will be a mistake not to sign him up permanently.

He's never going to be a prolific goalscorer but his touch and link play to feed others is excellent.

 

I'd sign him now.

He needs to show some goal scoring intent over this loan period for me to be convinced he'd be a good permanent signing. We don't have enough goals in our team as it is, I don't think we can carry a striker who doesn't offer them either. In his favour though he is only 23 and he could still start scoring.

Oracle or not, he looks OK. a lot better than what we have on the books, and at least making the right noises.

The College Dropout

I can see why he went for all that money (considering his goal record in Holland).

 

Even if he could only manage Gouffran type numbers in front of goal he would be well worth the money.

 

 

His all round game is genuinely great. We haven't had this type of team forward since Bellamy (although in a much different way) or dare I say Kluivert?

His all round play yesterday was absolutely superb. For me there was only Anita on the pitch who performed any better. Class act, really hope we buy him.

Kluivert was going downhill when he arrived here but at Ajax he was one of the most complete centre forwards I've seen. Marco van Basten is probably the other one who made scoring goals look like art.

Can the Kluivert had a poor first touch post be added to the most ridiculous things said on here please.

 

As an opinion, yes.

 

Some things Stifler says is beyond batshit mental.

Aye but that's to be expected these days.

Considering De Jong had barely played I think he's done well so far. He's all round game is very good and if he can start scoring we're gonna have a class striker on the books.

 

Does any know much about the deal, like if there's an option to buy. Fee agreed etc?

If we can keep Remy then I think we need to keep LDJ too, he seems the perfect foil for him and if he starts chipping in with his own goals we'll have a formidable strike force. Of course that would require us to have some ambition!

One of my favourite players of all time (outside of nufc players) Maybe not very consistent, but was lovely to watch on his day.

The 23-year-old arrives at St. James' Park from Borussia Monchengladbach on loan to the end of the season, with an option to make the move permanent.
