Mind games. He'll be here within 24 hours.

Hope you are right on this. As someone said we have hopefully solved the striking issue and this is the remaining weak area. I would hope there is a plan B, Dunk's court date was know well in advance and we were always 1 CD injury away from a problem.

Interesting comments from Gus there with regards him and Bridcutt, basically saying if we don't get to the premiership in a couple of years he's off and so is Bridcutt. Ouch.

I wonder who these comments are aimed at?

If Gus cant get us there with backing he's been given, playing HIS system then what makes him think he belongs there?

Perfectly reasonable, we can't just stagnate otherwise players will keep leaving and we have to rebuild every year. We need to seize the chance of promotion at the earliest opportunity, otherwise get used to the best guys going elsewhere.

Read that as well. Would think that is he doesn't get us up in a couple of years he may struggle to get a job in the premiership

To be fair, Gus has been saying such things since he arrived. Personally I am enjoying the ride on the Gus bus with the caveat that he is going to bugger off sometime soonish.

Enjoy it whilst we can.

He legacy could be Taino as manager with the foreign legion staying. I can only see him taking bridders and possibly bridge with him to the premiershite if he gets his long wanted move.

Bizarre Transfer Speculation - Virgil van Dijk

Very true I was was thinking the same, he has built a squad of players that play his system and if we don't make it then he is to blame no one else

Or that he would be wanted elsewhere in those circumstances? He has yet to prove himself fully in my view.

Re: Bizarre Transfer Speculation - Virgil van Dijk

Just read his wiki. . . . 21 yr old, 6ft 4 in defender with a goal ratio of just over 1 in5!!!! This is one Dijk we should get hold of!

Or literally 3 goals in 16 games. Not sure we can consider this a robust ratio, but definitely promising.

Mr Chin needs to make it clear to Groningen that the lad doesn't want to play for them anymore so they'd be better off taking the money than keeping an unsettled player
