Summer Transfer Window

Burgess appreciation post. Many players rightfully getting recognition, but Burgess bringing so much. Plays as though he's been here much longer than he has. Great partner to Bango after losing Darling

Concerned with him first 30mins but he grew into it.

I dont think a single cross got past him all game, he got his nut to just about everything
Sheff Utd had an absolute shit load of chances against Brizzle but we didn't give them a sniff of anything that wasn't a hopeful long shot all game.

It's a credit to him (and Casey) that I don't think there's been a flicker of a 'we miss Harry Darling' thought in anyone's head so far this season.

Burgess looks brilliant. It felt today like him and Cabango had played together for years

Cheers Manselton Jack. As I recall supporters were on his back for always passing sideways and backwards and never going forwards. Fairly certain that was going on until he scored twice in the Derby in 2009 (so three years in to his five-year stint with us)?

This is my recollection too.
Also remember Routledge having a spell of “stealing a living”.

I'm probably being unduly cautious, but I am concerned about the idea of Burgess coming up against a striker with pace when I watch him. The way Sheffield United played today (very reliant on free kicks, corners, throws in, all launched into the penalty area) was perfect for him and he was dominant.

He doesn't look overly confident with the ball at his feet either and there were a few loose passes when under pressure, but I think he improved as the game went on.

Any ideas on who the mystery striker that’s imminent?

Not saying it’s him but Hammarby have confirmed that they have been in contact with us about Erabi

“Contact with Swansea” – Director talks up offer from Swans, exit not ruled out - Sport Witness

Swansea City are keen on Hammarby IF’s Jusef Erabi and have already made advances to try and secure his services this summer. On August 7th, Expressen reported Swansea City made two bids to sign the striker, who can also operate on the left wing. They didn’t mention the details but insisted that the Welsh club

Can't see it being Erabi. I don't think it will be a name that's been mentioned yet.

 

[Ringwood]

We are screaming out for a number 9

Let's give our midfield and wide players a decent outlet up top. This current process just and hasn't worked with Cullen

Time to bin this blind loyalty AL.

Maybe thinking this talk sport reporter might have got a new striker mixed up with this new midfielder?

Definitely not.

Definitely not.

Good to hear

It’ll probably be Erabi, but I’m deluding myself into thinking the striker is Dorgeles Nene just because Snoop is following him, and that has been reliable so far

 

[Martyn - Derwydd]

Not Erabi. Someone asked how we are getting around the financial rules. Had a dumb thought.

Snoop Stadium has a nice ring to it
