Whitley mag Posted August 2 Share Posted August 2 Looks a good player this kid tall, strong, quick and seems to have good movement. No guarantee’s with young strikers especially when you look at likes of Brewster at Liverpool who looked the next big thing, but would imagine he was quite protected last season by Wilder due to their position and how uncompetitive they we’re, hence lack of 1st team appearances and goals.

I see him as offering us an alternative target man who can stretch defences. I odubt we would expect goals as such, but he could fit into our shape and give us an option up front when Wilson or Isak are out injured. Anything on top of that is a bonus.

BermyToon Posted August 2 Share Posted August 2 10 hours ago, Newcastle Fan said: Kuol dosn't even look league 2 standard, benched for a dutch side that was relegated last year That's fair. For £15M though, I thought our scouts could perhaps find someone with a more prolific profile, even if that's from a different (top) league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't see many transfer fees for Premier League players under that these days? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you ask the question how much Shearer would be worth in today’s market? £100m? £120m? You realise just how little that £15m is in modern terms Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can come on as an option for 20-25 mins to run hard at defences and cause problems and lessen the load on Isak (and Wilson). Sounds like he can play on the wing too so just generally adds depth.
