Anyone else we can raid while we are there

I assume he's happy to join a club that is now only a shambles off the pitch then  :clap_hands:

The guy from Oostende is interesting as he looks quite sharp when I have seen him play, however he (if signed), Ayite and possibly Aluko could be lost for up to 6 to 8 weeks when the African Cup of Nations comes round that would be 3 of our frontline missing for an important period.

duffy looks like he will go to brighton apparently they have bid

Aluko and Nigeria failed to qualify, but Ayite has a great chance with Togo.

I don't follow the afcon cup but I was just pointing out the risks of losing the players for a period

Don't really see it as so much of an issue if ayite goes. Nice lad, tries had but lacks a final ball. I hope we bring in some one else and give him chance to break into the team and English football

Have we been watching completely different games? Every game we've played thus far, our left side has been causing all kinds of havoc, and he's got some of the best footwork we've had in a winger in ages.

agreed. Him and sess look like the partnershlp I always hoped kerim frei and Mathew briggs would be. That's what their second or third game together. Wait till they really gel

Been to Newcastle and Leeds.  Newcastle looked decent but others does well and tracks back but lacks a final ball. It's an observation

[westcliff white]

I am with Ben and Deeping, think he has been a breath of fresh air for us, something we have not had for a while and something we have been missing

Had a cracking game v Newcastle and hasn't had a bad game yet. He has great ability, has been fantastic on the left both in attack and helping out the team tracking back and defending - don't underestimate the difference he ha made to our team balance.

He helps the shape of the team and has fantastic work rate. Links up really well with Sess / Aluko and epitomises the sort of attitude our team has been missing for the last few years.

In short - you must be high.

Wish I was high but sadly no.

I'm not denying he is not full of beans and has done well I'm just stating that out of the front 4 he is my weakest link and if we had some one with a final ball It would be great. 

I think compared to what we have watched it's brilliant but just my observation

I'd be interested in the stats, and Woolly this is just coincidental, but I'm sure I've seen him put at least 3 crosses on to smiths head only for them to not go in. You can only have an end product if you score or the bloke you pass to does. Our strikers are struggling to score from open play at the moment, but we are creating lots of chances

Decent passes and accuracy but not an assist yet. However I don't dismiss your point about a striker yes we do someone else up top.

I have found a good app which gives you every stat going.

Called goal+ on android.

In the Leeds game, ayite is the one who back heels it to sess in the box, receives the return pass and then he slots in Aluko who should have scores but hit the post.

cheers, I'll give it a go. But like I said under this post, he slotted in Aluko who hit the post. He can't do much more than that on the assist front. It was a perfect ball

[DevonFFC]

I guess I'm comparing him to aluko and cairney which maybe isn't Fair. Cairney stats are unreal with passes made and completion
