latemodelchild Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 If he's fit then get him playing Saturday. If nowt else it'll give us summat else to think about rather than what minute we'll give up and stop defending. Never know, if he hits the ground running and scores 3 we could hang on for a draw. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do we have option to sign built into the deal? Not seen anything confirming this but I read Ascoli had an option to buy him. They've obviously given that up having kicked him out for the red cards, fight with a team mate and arguing with travelling fans. I like him already Might be what we need, someone with a bit of a wild side. If he can control it and likes the love from fans then he could be quality. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This has a whiff of Paxo about it. I'm happy to give the lad a chance but 3 sendings off does seem a bit excessive. If he was playing in England we could find out what he was sent off for. in Italy we might not. There's a bit of difference in getting sent off for a couple of yellows cauused by mistimed tackles and getting set off for punching an official or other player. Anyway he's here now so we will soon get to have a look at him. I suppose this comes down to which way your glass is filled to half f ill or half empty? im a believer in circumstances and coaching so I’d like to believe we could coach and support those red cards especially as he was receiving racial abuse for one of them from his own fans. Plus I’d be highlighting the 6 goals and 6 assists he’s already provided this season and be looking for to get more of the same. Like o say glass half full or half empty some will always find something to moan about or critise. We’ve signed a young attacking player that’s been doing his job at the level he’s been played at it’s an area we need to strengthen. I know nothing about him so I’ll judge him on what I see and hope those attacking stats follow for him to our team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to the internet (I know, not an absolutely accurate source) he's out of contract in the summer. I'd be surprised if we didn't have some kind of option for a longer deal depending how he does. That would be extremely naive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andypandy Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 Like most, i never heard of him, and know nothing about him really, he may not adapt to the English game, in which case we won't really of lost anything, but there is chance he may be a diamond in the rough, and become a success and a saleable asset in the future, worth a punt.

Worst thing for us is he does well then other teams can pick him up in the summer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musn't Grumble Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 I'm inclined to say that I am not too bothered about the right players coming in... I am more concerned about the right players moving out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buxtongent Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 Got to agree, Grumble. There's a lot of discontent and ill-feeling at the club at the moment, and it's showing on the pitch. We often say a manager has 'lost the dressing room' as though its a case of an Owner, a manager, and a Dressing Room, intimating that the dressing room is all of one feeling. This is never the case.In any one group, there will always be someone who disagrees with another It may be discontent because A is getting more money than B, .It may be because it is felt in the DR that C is not pulling his weight. It could even be that D is f***ing E's wife (not unknown in what is a close-knit society). We don't know, and it is likely that Monk doesn't know We see lots of foootage about DRs being together, but its usually at successful clubs. As for bringing in new players, the choice is finally down to the Chairman. He's the one who's money is at stake.No manager can act on players he has never seen, and let's face it, the Manager is watching Wednesday, or should be. All Managers rely on recommendations. It's called the Scouting System, or used to be One thing is certain, whatever the player is like,HE MUST BE GIVEN A CHANCE. Unfortunately, a major factor of being a Wednesdayite is expecting perfection immediately. The lad must be given a good chance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WalthamOwl Posted January 30, 2020 Share Posted January 30, 2020 Be interesting to see what Monk says about the signing. Don’t you normally get something on the official website when a signing is announced with a few words from the manager? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then, he shouldn't be. That's why you have a recruitment team to assess what's out there. What is the point of having Downes & Hughes unless we source this type of signing?

This just looks like a random punt on a promising player who they hope can adjust quickly. The impact now player who knows the division is the one who will cost a fortune and be worth nowt in three years. Just the type DC is getting dogs abuse for signing in the past. The promising player will be cheap and just might do the business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
