    He showed good glimspes, no doubt.

    As @Liam Scales said above, it wasn't that we didn't want to play him but he refused to sign a new deal and made it abundantly clear he wanted to move on. Until someone pays the money we want for him, the reserves is where he will stay.

    If we get a few hundred thousand for him and a decent sell on clause, we will be doing well.

    Seemingly priced out as even though he's dug * with Bologna, 1 good season last year on loan increases his value from £750k to £8m, lol

    * that, wouldn't even be the 2nd or 3rd best striker if he came ro Scotland, chase them

    8m doesn't buy you much these days to be fair. I do think he'd be worth a loan but 8m up front, nah.

    Nah mate, you seen it with doig to marsielle move Italian teams move the goal posts constantly think they have to be the worst to deal with when you look back our dealing with clubs in Italy are probably the lowest.

    Di Canio
    Annoni
    Donati

    Only 3 I can remember coming from Italy in my lifetime

    Pass on this one for me. We should be bringing in someone who is on it at the moment. Our title race is here and now. It shouldnt be a case that we are trying to bring someone up to speed.

    I dont feel the hype that a few seem to.

    If we were linked to a few decent targets, people wouldnt be in favour of him. Its basically bargaining for someone to get a body in the door at this stage.

    Its too big a risk for the money that would be involved and the pressure is on BR and the more specifically the recruitment team to start getting it right.
