Also the club was on a big downer which doesn't help. Probably let him leave as they bought in Scott Hogan yesterday. im good friends with a player from his previous club who said the same he also doesnt rate him very highly i hope hes wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swanker Posted August 8, 2019 Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 Didn’t he cost someone about £10 Million a couple of seasons ago? A decent player who could just be what we need. Be interesting how his goal scoring compares to the Arsenal lad this coming season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldlandReddies Posted August 8, 2019 Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 Happy with this and good for Semenya. He could play in a two with either Adobe or Fam. Nearly a perfect transfer window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bris Red Posted August 8, 2019 Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 He’s a decent player at this level. Pleased with this. Okay its not the Arsenal lad but Christ there was no guarantees he would be the messiah. Afobe will score goals with the right service that is for sure..

RoystonFoote'snephew Posted August 8, 2019 Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 Far from our first choice but at least a striker is in. Had a bit of a lean time recently but if we could get him to play as he used to who knows. Certainly more proven than EN but ultimately goals will decide the better deal.

Malago Posted August 8, 2019 Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 Here’s a radical suggestion. Why don’t we give him a half a dozen games or so before deciding whether it’s a good signing or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
