Good news, hope it works out for both parties.

The article highlights him as a playmaker but the highlight reel most of it very much highlights how strong he is defensively. Feels like an upgrade on Jay and alternative to Allen rather than an attacking midfielder.

2 goals and 4 assists in 35 games seems to paint that picture as well. A better partner for Grimes is also something we have been crying out for and this seems targeted at that from what I can tell.

We were rumoured to be chasing a holding midfielder when Duff was at the helm, looks like the data is suggesting a holder is needed in all likely hood to help the back 4 out also.

Like the look of this lad alongside Grimes. If we can get a bit more goal threat up top and winger/no 10 then there are certainly signs to be happy with

Just watched his showreel and the first thing that struck me is that he is very reminiscent of Flynnley Downes, just a bit more rough around the edges.

Americans not spending money again - how dare they!!

Excited by this one.

Now… goalkeeper, centre back and striker x 2 to go.

When Joe was out of the side, there was hardly anybody making themselves available to the 2 centre halves. Hate slagging individuals but I clocked the Polish lad turn his back on Cabango when he was in acres of space.
We were spoilt in this area for so long with Leon.
Fingers crossed, this lad is the answer.
