Not the wow signing we wanted but if we can get his wolves form back out of him who knows. Still massively frustrated though.

Before he moved to Stoke, there'd be much more enthusiasm for this move.

If I remember correctly, lots of people wanted him in the window where we ended up with Diony.

Don't let the Stoke spell fool you - he's a good player and knows the league. Just had a barren patch recently. 

Attribute wise, he's exactly what we need in my opinion. Could be a very shrewd signing. Less of a risk than an unknown player from abroad and not some journeyman on his last legs.

Would've preferred Reid - but this might be a really good deal.

Both wrong, loans can still be done a week after deadline. Strange

Don’t think so, pretty sure today was the last day for any transfers. Only L1 & L2 can loan in players until end of August

 

But I think Afobe could do well in our side, had a few bad seasons now but definitely a goalscorer in there somewhere

 

Hopefully LJ and the rest of the coaching staff can bring the best out of him

8 goals in 46 games for Stoke

and people said Fam didnt score enough...

Stoke were poor and are hardly known for attacking play. We attack far more so he'll score more. Not sure if he'd work in a 2 with Diedhiou though?

Stoke had a great season as well...

Surprised he is only 26 seems to have been around for a longer time than that.

Very talented player a couple or three years ago, hopefully he still has it - much more mobile than Diedhiou.
