Anthony Knockaert signs a 3.5 year deal with the Albion

I remember him coming off the bench for Leicester against us. I think we won but I remember when he came on, they suddenly looked a lot more dangerous with Knockeart cutting in, looking to shoot and beating his man. He looked top class to me. I didn't understand how Leicester could have a player like that on their bench.

I'd be very excited if we sign him.

 

[Albumen]

Haha quite ridiculous.

 

[S'hampton Seagull]

As long as we sign the striker to be ready for Rotherham, it doesn't really matter if it is today, tomorrow, or Friday.

I can't see that happening if I'm honest.

That 2nd goal is sick tekkers....

Yeah, but we dont do early crosses in to the box, we div about a bit on the wings so the oppo back 4 can get set.

All this moaning re Derby making signings and not us tends to remind me of the Summer period ...some were going on about Derby then....didn't seem to do us much harm until recently...personally AT THIS STAGE I'm in the 'wait and see camp'

 

[Paul Reids Sock]

nahhh, not for me. He looks a bit crap

I was thinking that. The only reason Derby are above us right now is because of shitty luck with injuries.

 

[Grombleton]

Not at all but one is a short term loan and one is untried, am I wrong then?

I will be far more impressed when/if we sign a striker who can score regularly at this level, otherwise we have no chance of promotion.

You set your sights as low as you like though.

Erm...

did he not get Dunk sent off, if I remember rightly......looked very smug about it afterwards ?

 

[glasfryn]

Remind me, how often does a Peter Ward come along? In truth we've signed enough non league rubbish over the years since, one must come good soon by the law of averages.

Disclaimer I am not suggesting he will be rubbish, just making a point about the vast majority of our previous gambles.

a goalscorer who finds the back of the net in any league especially with that many goals can do it anywhere with the right service

 

[Icy Gull]

Erm...

So not expecting a loanee LB and an untried Irishman to fire us to promotion without strengthening the forward line is writing those players off is it? Umm OK then

Really? How about CMS.

The window has only been open for two days. You did post an apology to Solly March after writing him off at the beginning of the season.
I think you could wait until the end of January before assessing our chances with new signings.

there are some exceptions ................................and will admit we have had a few

 

[NooBHA]

To be honest, he is right. Our rivals are signing Championship strikers with 12 goals so far this season. We've signed a midfielder from the Irish leagues

Money means nothing if you do your homework properly and get a bit of luck. We spent £150,000 and got Kayal. Well a bit more now because I think the fee doubles if he gets to having played a set amount of games but even at £300K it is a bargain an great business without spending a fortune
