Nibor Posted August 17, 2017 Report Share Posted August 17, 2017 4 hours ago, tinman85 said: Vassell is a pacy powerful striker with potential. Luton fans rated him higher than Gray. Check out Fulham comments on this guy. They are celebrating. Not what we need at all. Vassell is 24 in a couple of weeks and scored one in five in league two last season. My money is on him failing at this level because his finishing looked poor in the lower leagues, he'll have far less time in this one. At the same age Gray had already managed two in three for a season in the conference and better than one in three for a full season in the Championship, and moved for £9m. I very much doubt you will find Luton fans rate Vassell higher other than the odd one or two fringe idiots every club seems to have. Woodrow got better than one in three for Burton at this level last season, and Fulham have seen him start a handful of times in the last year. He's younger and more experienced at this level than Vassell. We're not paying a large fee, and if he doesn't cut it he can go back. There is little logic at all behind your moan to be honest.

Jerseybean Posted August 17, 2017 Report Share Posted August 17, 2017 Hopefully this is a receipe for success 1) Take a young ambitious forward, with decent experience at this level and with England, who is keen to establish himself as a regular starter 2) Add him to a young, hungry team and allow a short while for him to settle 3) Watch him simmer and improve him through coaching and game time so he can come to the boil 4) Remove any risk by taking him on loan initially A warm welcome to BS3 Cauley, enjoy your football and I very much look forward to you dishing up plenty of goals for us.

Kibs Posted August 17, 2017 Report Share Posted August 17, 2017 1 hour ago, LoyalRed said: When Brum sign Vassell, Cardiff sign Bogle and Fulham sign Rui Fonte, no disrespect to Woodrow but I'm hardly jumping for joy at this signing, What a strange comparison of players to base your disappointment on. Don't know a lot about Fonte but if you're comparing the signing of Woodrow to Vassell and Bogle, surely you SHOULD be jumping for joy? Because the other 2 have achieved less in comparison.

Marina's Rolls Royce Posted August 17, 2017 Report Share Posted August 17, 2017 Cheapest signing for OTIB. Ever. 4 pages and we get a largely proven Championship striker.

Jacki Posted August 17, 2017 Report Share Posted August 17, 2017 I'm not excited by this one on the face of it, but I'll reserve judgement until we've seen the lad play a few games.

See pic below...i found this pic of him in his City kit. 5 hours ago, Kotsy said: He's taking some serious bashing from Fulham fans on twitter who clearly don't rate him - granted, they don't represent the fan base as a whole but you'd hazard a guess that they've seen him play the most. Genuine question, when have you seen him play and what has he done to make you rate him so highly? I'm only wondering because you seem to be fairly alone with your opinion! Odd bits of pieces of highlights at Fulham grabbed a bit of attention as one to look out for. I didn't see the Fulham EFL Cup game (might've changed my mind over penalty miss). Also quite like watching the u21 stuff, so odds and sods there. In fairness I'd lost a bit of track and thought he'd left Fulham and was at Burton permanently. Then found out a loan. I thought he was excellent against us in the 0-0 at AG, gave Flint and Wright a torrid afternoon. Read my match day comments that day. I think @GrahamC rates him too, if that adds support! 5 hours ago, Kotsy said: I've never seen him play*, hence why I'm asking for the opinion of those that have... *unless he played against us last year, in which case I don't remember him standing out See above....twice....although I only saw the Burton game! 4 hours ago, Loco Rojo said: Good shout Fevs. Does this mean you can now claim to be an ITK?

Experienced at this level for his age. Not bad goal return. Sensible loan signing and if he does well fits in well be first in the queue to sign him. Can't see the problem, but then I'm not the kind of person that looks for one!! I was surprised to see him being 6'0'...thought he looked a bit smaller. A well rounded striker / forward. Wonder if there's a potential permie option built in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
