Bergkamp joins Brighton

[Napper]

It's a glass half full divide with this news

Proof will be in the pudding

This is what my Ajax season ticket holding mate says....

Absolutely useless.... On the plus side he's related to Dennis.... Good signing for Brighton

Hmmm

By Ajax standards he could well be "absolutely useless" and yet still tear The Championship up. Surely we are not expecting players who Ajax would like to sign are we?

 

[Hiney]

Amazing isn't it.

His goalscoring record is one in seven, yet people are already creaming themselves over him.

No different from you creaming yourself over every single tedious Sunday afternoon offering from The Premier League

 

[peterward]

No way would he turn down a contract at a Dutch top division side to sign for the development squad. Definite first team player, I would expect him to start a majority of games for us next season (unless Gus discovers he is TURD in training).

Looks like the bigger target man type. However good or bad he may turn out to be..... I will gamble right now and take him over Chris Wood

Roland Roland Roland
Keep the goals rolling

BERGKAMP!

that is quality!

Haha that is brilliant!

YES

I've tweaked it.

Roland Roland Roland
He's our man from Holland
Roland Roland Roland
BERGKAMP!

"Keep the goooaaals flowing"

 

[Peter Grummit]

Being brought up in the Netherlands with the family pedigree he has, he will be used to playing the tippy-tappy way.

FLAIRTASTIC signing (if true)!

Hard to compare standards but from the games I've seen even the relegation fodder in the Dutch top flight would be competitive in the English championship.

Bergkamp is not a close relative of former Gunners' favourite Dennis and in a Dutch TV interview in 2010 admitted he had only ever spoken to him once.

He's TWENTY. Chill out.

Fixed for you.

BERGKAMP!

That's good but I reckon I prefer the 'keep the goals rolling' version!

 

[The Large One]

I assume this means no Chris Wood then.

 

[S'hampton Seagull]

I assume this means no Chris Wood then.

Yay!

 

[Kumquat]

I think most of us have got Wood at news of this signing.........

 

[¤DãŃn¥ §êãGüLL¤]

Don't be silly....... they were saying Owen and Hesky (CMS was back up I think)

Oh yes with Forlan to come on in the last 10 mins if we need to nick a goal.

 

[piersa]

he may be his nephew but is he a blood relation? If not , it may as well be me.

 

[tonymgc]

Can't view the vids on my rubbish phone but at 6ft 4 he sounds like the type of player we've been crying out for. And coming from Dutch football he's been taught to play the right way since childhood.

And if you can't get excited at the prospect of the name BERGKAMP on a Brighton shirt then you clearly have no soul.

 

[Buzzer]

so what his Uncle was a world class player dont mean his going to be

dont mean his going to be?

 

[Thunder Bolt]

he may be his nephew but is he a blood relation? If not , it may as well be me.

Nephews are blood relations (unless step children who are adopted) They have the same surname.
