Although he didn't play a single game for them, Southampton paid £4m for him in 2013. I'm sure he'll be able to do a job in the short run.

Left his club at end of January, so would see him only as cover for Uwe as would need time to get back to match fitness

Perhaps we should have got better than Tomori (and Akpon) in when we had the chance.

Goldson's heart condition wasn't found until after the transfer deadline so why would we have signed a good centre half to be 4th/5th choice or why would a good centre half have signed on loan to be 4th/5th choice?

We need cover, he's welcome to join on a short-term deal. Much better option than timori. BFG is injury prone and dunk will be missing three games.

I've seen a couple of tweets saying he burned his bridges in Norway and refused to play with Bendtner. He doesn't seem universally liked.

Well I like him a bit more already based on this sound judgement alone :D

Sign someone with no Championship experience and has not played for 4 months.
A very sad indictment of our U23 Squad and recruitment in January.

Recruitment in January was fine in the conditions that prevailed then.

Agree with you about the sad indictment of the U23s though.

In January we didn't need a 5th choice CB. Since then we've lost two top quality championship defenders to potentially season ending injuries. There was no club in this division as well set as us for CBs on the 31st of January.
