Admin Ian M Posted August 8, 2019 Admin Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 No video please City. Just a single tweet stating "Bristol City have completed the loan signing of Benik Afobe. Also, as we are on a downer we decided to flog Pack whilst the money was there too. Come to the QPR game, we'll try to score." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coppello Posted August 8, 2019 Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 AFOBE JOINS CITY ON SEASON-LONG LOAN City have added to their forward firepower with the loan signing of Benik Afobe from Stoke City. Afobe, pictured playing at Ashton Gate in 2018/19, arrives in BS3 on a season-long loan and the Robins do have the option to purchase the Dominican Republic of Congo international.

Silvio Dante Posted August 8, 2019 Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 Probably below Reid or Neiketah (later for potential) on my list but ahead of Wells, Moore and Joao. On that basis, decent deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phileas Fogg Posted August 8, 2019 Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 7 minutes ago, just like watching brazil said: 65 goals in 260 games what a signing Unwise to look at just the stats without context. He was playing in the Prem in a struggling Bournemouth side for a while and struggled at Stoke recently. Earlier in his career he was a 1 in 2 striker at MK Dons and Bournemouth. At 26 years old, still plenty of time to recover his old form. Stylistically he's a very good fit for us I think. I feel you may be pleasantly surprised...

Better than 1 in 3 goals vs starts almost all at this level or above. Very good signing I think - and IMO more likely to prove out than the arsenal kiddie as exciting as that might be. Welcome Benik!
