If Moore gets the best out of Kamberi and if the laddie is serious about playing when he is here then we have a better footballer than Cosgrove. I’m looking forward to seeing what Kamberi can do and what Moore can get out of him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Think tank Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 Posted the quote from edinburghowl without my response by mistake. I was going to say… Well said. I was just going to post saying I was quite pleased with him as a signing. As mentioned he did really well at Hibs to begin with. He enraged their fans with comments he made when wanting to leave and when he was away on loan. So I’d take what they say with a pinch of salt. Patchy record since, but definitely has something about him and at League 1 level, I think he will do really well. Decent signing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Jack Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 Goal scoring record is poor, but if DM sees potential, its a cheap gamble to be fair, but thats our market so worth a punt. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel it’s more accurate to say his recent goal scoring record is poor, in the past 12 months. His career stats is 1 goal every 3.4 games, compared to someone like Joe Piggott who is 1 goal every 3.41 games in weaker leagues 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We never gave him a chance but he scored goals everywhere else he played. I think I've seen him play once and thought he looked ok (when at Rangers). Holds it well, quite mobile, decent technically. He should be plenty good enough for division 3. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m looking forward to seeing what Kamberi can do and what Moore can get out of him. It’s simply down to one wiki post, showing a snapshot of a low goal return. I’m sure if you took a snapshot of Joao’s performances, at a certain point with us, it would be similar and look at him now. Ive read all your posts with interest mate. You’re very balanced in your views. It’s clear he has both attributes and short comings, befitting our level. I think from what I’ve seen, he’s an excellent signing. The pool we are in - Maclean, Ogrady, Kuqi, Madine - he’s more than comparable. What I like about him and the direction Moore is taking us in, is he is mobile. He’s strong, but he’s not a Nuhiu. He can get about the pitch and defends from the front. As I said in one of my first posts, he could well become a cult hero. The type of player who puts 100% in every game and then scores a 93rd minute diving header, losing three teeth in the process. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Duran Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 Very pleased about this. Right age for a striker just about to hit his prime and got the potential to score a decent few goals for us. Looks a unit with decent skill and awareness. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Screen Door Slams Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 Would have loved us to have brought in Humphreys the lad that wigan have snapped up but it would appear even a nominal fee is out of reach ATM. As for kamberi , can honestly say i cant remember seeing him play , but he is not without promise looking at his CV and is surely an upgrade on Kachunga and Marriott , lets at least give him a chance eh ?

Spookone Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 Have to admit I know nothing about him, but from reading thoughts from some on here who actually have some insight rather than just looking at his recent stats, he seems like a good signing for us in L1. I also trust DM knows what he’s doing judging by our recent signings. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m looking forward to seeing what Kamberi can do and what Moore can get out of him. Well said as always some fans think they know everything without seeing him put a Wednesday shirt on. And again remember what league we are in. Clearly plenty of managers see something in him and know he has bags of ability, it's all about if Moore can get that ability out of him and shown on the pitch. As you have said he's a good age and hopefully has a point to prove wanting to get his career back on track. If he has that mindset and Moore works some magic he could have a good season with us.
