Upthemags Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 Kind of signing where I think Mitchell sees something we likely dont. Young cover for two positions we need talent in, with potential to be in the starting xi on the wing? And for cheap, can hardly criticize. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeordieDazzler Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 At worst it means we won’t be bringing Ben Parkinson on in the middle of an injury crisis. At best he could be a real player. Seems a smart enough move at the price. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BonesJones Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 Anyone else get slight Isak vibes when watching certain parts of his game or just me? Obviously nowhere near the same level, but I saw something. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronson333 Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 If he comes good in a few years from now, we’ll be praising our scouts, because let’s be honest nobody on this forum knew anything about him before today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 Love this type of signing....good age, low fee, potential to develop with the proper coaching. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 8 minutes ago, Menace said: Maybe cause I expected a better striker combination than a crocked Wilson and a Sheff Utd reserve going into the season? I think we'll sign a right winger that can also play up top too. Not having Europe this season means that will suffice for now I believe. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 (edited) I like these kind of signings so much more than overrated injury prone has beens like DCL. If he doesn’t quite hit the heights we are hoping for then we will probably get our money back at worst. Edited August 1 by Ikon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoU Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 I remember hearing a long interview with him on a danish podcast mid last season. He seemed like a nice humble guy. Family person and very religious (which I remember, since its not very typical for a young dane to be). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoU Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 I did not think he was real pl player, more like a championship player on the bench for a bottom pl side. But I cant say that I watched him, so I trust the recruitment team to know more than me Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously nowhere near the same level, but I saw something. It's the height, speed and comfort on the ball. We've definitely sought out a youngster with those same traits.

Shearergol Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 Hope he's improved a lot since his Derby loan. He was bang average for them (probably out of position to be fair to him). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decky Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 15 minutes ago, Menace said: Maybe cause I expected a better striker combination than a crocked Wilson and a Sheff Utd reserve going into the season? I doubt we will have more. Unsurprisingly Wilson is injured again so we're not selling him. So Isak, Wilson, this lad and using Gordon as cover if need be is probably our lot. Wilson is going to tarnish his time here with many if we need him this season and he once again drops out with injury. Everyones just sick to death of it now.

Geordie Boyo Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 Eddie will definitely get the best out of what ever he can offer particularly with the type of players he’ll have around him to compete with. Great opportunity for him and hopefully the right one for us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 Just now, Menace said: Nigerian background so I'd assume thats where the strong Christian beliefs come from if I'm right @KaKa Probably, but Nigeria isn't all Christian. There are Muslims too, albeit mostly from the north. And there are also a bunch of morally bankrupt heathens. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
