[Albion] Florin Andone (LEAVES BY MUTUAL CONSENT)

[Papa Lazarou]

How can we be sure he's not just another two bob striker?

He looks fantastic,sign him up pronto please Hughton and Barber. However, I have a huge concern... A Florin is 2 shillings and 2 shillings is 2 bob. Does that make him a "2 bob striker".
I'll get my coat.

Ahem

I have faith in the Greyhound and Bruno for the season ahead- strengthening wouldn't go amiss but I think both will still do a job.

Same for me. I think the same applies - maybe slightly less so - to LB. It depends on the size of the fund available, and the priorities as seen by CH and the recruiting team.
There are better players out there for every position, but we can't buy them all!

Ahem

Fair do's Papa. I hadn't looked at all 1081 posts. It's an age thing I s'pose. D'oh!

We'll only sign a right back if we are writing off Ales Mateju.

I'm not trying to publicly humiliate you - just pointing out that another person also remembers what a Florin is.

And on topic - I wonder if we'll see some progress now the Spanish League season has ended.

Or maybe just wait till 23:55 on the 9th of August.

Would be lovely to get a signing sorted by the end of May. Especially a position as key as a striker.

On paper looks decent , good age as well.

La Liga is a better barometer to compare how he will do than say Dutch or Belgium leagues. Always a bit of a risk but for the price quoted , seems an absolute no brainer.

If we could then get a LB , CM , AM to compliment this then if they all are a success then we have large potential to do something very good next season.

I know it's only one game, but in the playoff semi V Boro he didn't have a great game, particularly when compared to Cox on the other flank

I'd say exactly the same for the final vs Villa too although, that said, when I saw him earlier in the season in the cup (against Barnet, I think) I was quite impressed.

I want Andone and Rondon…

the 2 Dons upfront has a certain ring to it.

Powell seems to be quite injury prone and will Wigan want/need to sell now that they are back in the Championship. Could Powell also be a professional Northerner too?

I didn't think he wanted to come here! So yes professional Northerner.

I'm giving you a thumbs up because, that was sooo bad.

I can't remember much about him from that game TBH (age, no doubt) but I think we need him to be more than quite impressive against Barnet if he's going to play in the PL.

A northern Joey Beauchamp? He wouldn't play outside Oxford, as I recall. Even Swindon was too far away.

So which team is going to GAZUMP us? It's going to be Burnley isn't it?

Nah a bit too foreign for them.
Our friends from the northern outpost of Croydon may well be interested.

Sign Matt Done from Rochdale, have a front 3.

It would have been a whole lot funnier if someone more astute than me hadn't spotted it and posted it much earlier. I was alerted to this by one Papa Lazarou who wasn't trying to publicly humiliate me ( obviously )

Once again old chum ,no worries and fair do's. Someone else just gave me a "thumbs up" for it so they obviously hadn't spotted the previous earlier post. Chill!

He's definitely a Northerner but injury prone. Not so much anymore.
Played pretty much every game last season.
