    Bologna close to signing a new striker.

    If we are interested, this could be the trigger we needed to get something moving.

    His da said yesterday that his preference is to stay at Bologna, and if he does leave he'll stay in Italy. This one is dead I feel.

    I also think this is just pure laziness in that his dad played for us - similar to Jordan Larsson.

    January hard to get deals done though. We will probably try really hard but just fall short. We will revisit in the summer perhaps.

    Would be a good loan move. Cover the guys away and if he turns out totally pish then no biggy.

    His stats are poor 11 games I think 1 goal no assists . He is I would think below big OH who I feel if he gets a run in the team would do us well.

    They are but he hasn't had a lot of minutes. Think he's only started 2 games this season.

    He done very well at Herenveen on loan last year. Was 2nd in the goalscoring standings in the eredivisie, just behind Xavi Simons. He'd do well here, I think.

    I'm always wary of strikers with good records in Holland they tend to be very hit and miss

    Being used mainly as a sub doesn't fill me with confidence and when he has come in made no difference to the team. Just because his dad played here doesn't wash with me.. same as young larsson. We should be targeting more high profile and prolific players but will wait and see at end of this window.

    We should be, but we never do.

    Don't realise why, as we have the cash . Guess it's the board not releasing cash

    Genuinely not trying to be an * mate but do you have any examples?

    Like, GG was the obvious one for us and he was good. I can't think of many more that we have signed who have good scoring records in Holland. JVOH, obviously but he was a success too.

    I mean in general not just with us guys like Depay, Bas Dost, Dessers, Finnbogasson, Janssen all struggled to hit the heights they hit in Holland there is a few who did tbf Suarez being the obvious one
