    He’s still learning his trade. I think it’s a no brainer at 5m or less.

    I'm kind of disappointed SVH hasn't done well, would mean Norwich would sign him and easier to get Idah. Mind if Norwich promote they won't want Idah bsck.

    He's really young, 23 and doing a similar job to GG (and less likely to give away a freekick). He's scoring every 70 minutes, I think we'd be mental not to take him.

    Completely sold on him, be extremely surprised if he isn't also pushing for the move.

    I think there’s potential for him to be the Giakumakos replacement we have been waiting for.

    Not quite there yet but he has the upside to be it next season give his age and potential trajectory. Ideally we see him get even better than Giako.

    Amazed at how well he's done, love him. We would be foolish not to do everything we can to sign him.

    Be crazy not to try and keep him, he's been great for us and has room to improve.

    Difference between him and D'oh is night and day.

    Very good point, I am worried about how much they’ll ask for. Wont be less than £6M I’d say.

    6m isn't really expensive for a striker, especially one that's scoring as well as Idah. 7 goals in 10 games in the league with 2 assists. We spent that on strikers 20 odd years ago.
    Our best hope is he pushes the move, and I wouldn't be surprised if he did.

    He's been far better than I was expecting him to be, single handily won us the game against Hibs and should have won us the game against the huns had Yang not royally * it.

    I think it'll be a situation of us taking him on a LTB next year rather than outright buying him, and Idah himself will need to push through the move. I could see Norwich wanting around £6-£7 million for him which is a bit much.

    Good he keeps scoring always glad to see both strikers get on the scoresheet keeps their confidence up. He was a handful again. He actually has all the tools to be a very good striker it’s about putting them together.

    As he gets more familiar with team mates too and a bit wiser he will pick better options that one he blazed over has to be squared to Palma for a tap in.

    I'm leaning towards hoping we try and get him permanently.

    Far better option than Oh. Wasn't too enamoured when we signed him but hasn't put a foot wrong.

    Brilliant as usual. Only had about 1 poor game since he’s joined I think. O’Riley out the equation then he’s make a list of of 3 for POTS if he keeps this form up last 6/7 games. Him, Hart and CCV have been instrumental in this post January push for the title.

    To think TC was more in favour of SVH than Idah and were raging we didn't sign SVH, never got the svh want, wasn't particularly wanting Idah either tbh

    There was plenty of it directed at him, a lot of the folk guilty of it are * scared to praise him now because they know they were poisonous scum at the time. Love how the big man is ramming it right down their necks.
