The trouble with lower European leagues is thy are mostly rubbish, its chalk and cheese, Adams is a decent player, hard working, IMHO good buy for 10m, especially if we can get 10m for Mateta.


If he is effectively a replacement for Mateta without much additional cost then fair enough, he's probably a small upgrade.

However, if he's the solution to leading our line then I'm just not sure he will solve our main problem which is chance conversion.

Take your point on Euro leagues but I suppose the argument is that you are taking a risk but also hopefully paying a lower premium. Striker is obviously a very difficult position for clubs of our size but it just seems amazing how rarely we get it right.

Lanzo,

Totally agree and things beginning to look positive for the new season.

I take it we have no updates from dazza because it’s been quiet on Twitter transfer rumour wise ?

Correct, the Chris Francis deal wasn’t talked about on Social Media before being announced, hence we didn’t get to know about it.

We have however definitely signed Lewis Hall on Loan as Dazza announced it was completed last week. All this talk of it being put on hold and the fact he wasn’t in our squad for yesterday is clearly totally wrong as he’s stated it was a ‘Done Deal’ over a week ago and about to be announced

The thing is we may have an outstanding world class CF already, i think with his strength, pace, height, Skill, heading ability and finishing, Franca, imho will be CF, eventually.

That would be nice. Don't know enough about him but looking forward to his debut.

Along the same lines it would be wonderful if yesterday gave Edouard the confidence to push on and have a good season. The problem is that despite his goal I still came out of the game feeling as though he should have had a hattrick and was wasteful.

My stomach looks like it's been hit with a baseball bat!!!

TBH didn’t study you that closely . I regularly drive that way as son’s girlfriend lives in Maldon. Spend my time looking at speedometer having got my one and only speeding ticket in Danbury last year!
Hope recovery is going well

Hyperbole, a Lanzo speciality. Let's see when he eventually gets a game.

Che Adams compared to Ronaldo? Could be Ronald O'Sullivan? At least it doesn't say favourably compared.

Tim Vickery, who pops up to give his opinion on South American players, said he definitely has potential, but is very raw at the moment. He will do one wondrous thing, then 10 very poor, losing possession. On that basis, I cant see Roy and Ray rushing him into the team.
