    He’s not as classy as edouard, he also looks clumsy to me. I’m hoping he’s a strong bullying type of striker.

    Yeah but being classy means * all when he literally couldn't be bothered to move about a lot of the time. We're well shot of Édouard.

    Top scorer in the Eredivise would suggest he has something about him. Needs games to prove himself tho.

    Hope he does the business on Saturday, I think he’ll be starting even if Kyogo is fit enough to play some part

    You would think he might even if Kyogo is fit he probably needs a rest after all that travel as well as the games.

    Just wondering whether he is fit himself? He didn’t play any games for VVV this season so far you have to hope he has been training from the start of the season and not just the last couple of weeks with us.

    He also missed the end of last season with a shoulder injury. I also seen something posted that he was due to have a press conference on Wednesday that was pulled but that might just be speculation perhaps he will have one today given Jota and Scales have done them.

    Ange’s press conference today should be interesting as there is a fair few we are waiting to hear about including McCarthy, Forrest, Johnston, Taylor, Ralston, Kyogo and of the new boys who is ready to be involved tomorrow.

    Time to shine big man. I think he's a good option to have. He's not a work horse like Kyogo, he doesn't have the finesse of an on-fire Eddy, but I think he'll give us an presence up top. He'll put himself in about defenders and be where a striker should be, in the box. Also be good for certain games against the likes of Livi, St Johnstone, Motherwell etc away from home where pitches are heavy and *.

    To be fair, he is a work horse. He might not have the finesse of an on-fire Eddy, but he would've put away some of the chances that have been gifted to Eddy on a plate so far this season.

    Would hope he is at least in the squad for Thursday. Can’t afford to go into another game with no alternative striker options on the bench.

    He better watch incase the superstar Ajeti pushes him into 3rd choice striker.

    Is he not a while away? He’s not played for ages. Not sure if he’s done a pre-season or not.

    I’m sure he could come on for 20 mins… but I think CDF was saying incase Ajeti gets injured and we’ve no striker options
