[Albion] Tudor Baluta

[the right footed denilson]

He needs a season in the Championship ideally.

He's already played at a far higher level than that.

 

[dazzer6666]

Blimey, you really are relentlessly negative aren't you?

Well, he's going to have to be good because he looks like the only addition we're making.

...

Can he play left back?

Let’s keep watching him at U21 level, see how preseason unfolds, and then we can formulate a more accurate judgment.

You are Chris Hughton and I claim my five pounds!

4 appearances for the senior Romania side, 42 in the top division in Romania.

I'd rather he was in our squad, not playing for Jones at Stoke.

Too bloody right, he’s 20 years old, it not like he’s a 16 year old being thrown in. Hopefully we’ll see a change in our policy of younger players being given a chance to prove themselves.

Indeed.

"Buh-lutts-uh"

Some of the chant suggestions might need a rethink!

Yup. A quick google turned up this....

A note on accents; a Romanian ‘š’ or ‘ş’ are not dissimilar to an English ‘sh’ while ‘ț’ is something like ‘ts’. The ‘ă’ is an extended vowel sound, like the ‘a’ in the English word ‘star’.

Băluță – Bar-loot-sar

Bar Loot Tsar - sounds like some kind of Russian Highwayman

Yes, DCM.

We don't need to bring in another this window. Just a new (A)CM in central midfield.

That is great to hear. Let’s hope GP shows willing to play our best U23’s. Sounds like Tudor is one of them. Exciting. Oh, and thank you for update... much appreciated.

Incorrect. I'm actually Chris Hughton but can you please keep this just between me and you? It felt right to tell you.

 

[stewart_weir]

So the Romanian top division is a better quality than our Championship?

 

[Birdie Boy]

I can't wait for all of our u23's to be the whole starting line up in the PL.. What the **** is wrong with people, it won't happen.
I am looking forward to watching him tomorrow night though.

Crosses the ball and the Albion score again....

If only there was any grain of truth in that.

And if only it scanned.....

I'd just like to see one U21's player get more than 10 games this season even if they are as a sub when 2-0 up. I just want footballers to consider us as a cub who will help them develop rather than one that buys up promising talents and puts them in the U23's before not renewing their contract

On as a sub when we are 2-0 up... more than ten games... in a SINGLE season?

Good grief

Well gimme the five pounds anyway - I'm sure you can afford it out of your mahoosive pay-off settlement!

2-0 up? No, why not two or three down with ten minutes to go - nothing to lose then!

 

[Grassman]

I like the lad. Very promising - almost as much as the band he’s named after: Tudor Cinema Club.

Come on all those of you moaning about puns, that’s the best yet, surely..... *unless someone said it before and I haven’t noticed.

I see what you did there
Role reversal? Empathy?
