Striker Adrian Colunga Signs Two Year Deal (Update)

[LamieRobertson]

It's a squad game etc but Grady must be wondering why he signed for us.

I was thinking the same

Why can't we sing an ENGLISH striker like Jordan Rhodes or Troy Deeney ? Far better than wasting money on Spanish again

Rhodes, like CMS, is a well known Scottish front man of course

Surprisedhe is taking the #7 shirt and not the #9

Perhaps we are still going to sign a new no 9 Glenn Murray?

Maybe someone else wants it? Someone maybe in negotiations at the moment?

That's what I'm hoping

He must have been told he was going to be part of a squad of 4 or so strikers this season , like most Champ and L1 clubs. Why would he be surprised like the rest of the squad we are making more signings and getting back up to a first team squad of 23 or so players. ?

Injuries, form, luck - he will play a part and has chance to play a role. He's a different forward to both CMS and Colunga - useful squad player. Things might not work out but he presumably wants to challenge as part of a Champ squad, play for Hyypia and be part of what Albion are doing.

God no.

He does look a bit tasty, based on the youtube clip. But then everyone(well not all of us), thought Toko was going to be the first name on the team sheet based on a three minute youtube clip. He may well still be, but he will have to be a hell of a player to replace Holla in that sitting position(Toko that is)....So judgement will be reserved, but he does look quality I will admit.

 

[sir albion]

Although his clips are mostly 4 years ago...He has great composure,great with both feet and very technically gifted.

Looks a very good signing

A Spanish journo friend of mine said: "Good news. A good scorer. He had a bad relationship with the coach, but he is a skilful player and a fast one. One of those ' small' players...á typical Spanish rabbit, if you know what I mean."

Thinking of getting the Mrs one of them for Christmas.

Quality signing. The kind of signing a team chasing promotion should be making.

 

[algie]

He cost 1.4 million euros. Seems a bit steep and only a 2 year deal.

What's that equate to - 1.1m or so? Not a bad amount. Guess a two year deal is to cover us incase he is actually pants.

Don't know anything about this player other than what I've read and seen on video's but he looks good so well played the Albion, I've been very critical of the slowness of the club this summer but they have started pulling in a few good signings in the last week or so. I'm still not convinced they're getting the main targets they were after but on evidence so far the second choices are looking good acquisitions and quite possibly better than some of the names we have been linked with.

 

[Raleigh Chopper]

Never doubted the club would come up with the quality goods needed, its all getting very exciting, should fill up the SE corner now.
