combo74 Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 7 hours ago, CJGJ said: His record is just okay as a striker He got a big move in 2016 and it did not seem to work out nor his move to Sheffield United last season so he still has things to prove Our Assistant Manager has seen him at close quarters so you'd like to think we have a pretty good idea of his talents but it's the type of signing you hope will work out. I'd imagine his wages will be pretty high at our level so lets look on the positive side and be happy we have boosted the squad in one of the areas that needed some improvement You say his move didn’t work out, however he was deemed good enough to play 35-40 games in the 3 seasons prior to last in the Championship, so he was clearly viewed as an integral part of the associated teams. Even last season he still played 20 games. He’s also been deemed to be playing well enough to amass 20 caps over the same period. He may not have been prolific on the goal scoring front; but then, if he had he wouldn’t be coming to Hearts. Not saying that he is guaranteed to be a success here, however outside of Naismith and maybe Berra, he’s probably the highest calibre signing we’ll have made since Admin...on a par with Lafferty.

CloustonHMFC Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 So yesterday folk were moaning about lack of transfer activity and today it seems as if this will be our transfer business: In - White (yes signed end of last season but he was always a signing for the coming season), Halkett, Naismith, Walker, Washington and probably one more maybe two depending on Djoum. Out - Sammon, Martin and Vanecek All in all, it’s shaping up to be a good window for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlphonseCapone Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 I'd never heard of him until JKB either. I guess I should quit football now.
