If West Ham thought he was too expensive then surely we will too?
Got something to say or just want fewer pesky ads? Join us... 😊

More chance of signing Roland Rat
Depends why they think he is too expensive. If it’s because it pushes their FFP/PRS calculations over the precipice then perhaps we’ve done them on this one.

Possibly. He plays for the same team that Adingra came from.

He'll be put in the u21s or loan him out because it's what we do.

This sounds like it has all the hallmarks of bullshit or being shafted again by west sham.
What exactly is it you rebel against? Optimism? Happiness? Joie de vivre?

And olise back for the scum
@rebel51 is alright by me.
Nothing like a bit of hot anxt to pave the way for unexpected ozone-sucking jubilation and cock-a-hoopery.
Mind you, disappointment and despair is more likely. To be fair. And who wants to be fair? Life isn't fair, It's one long trudge of disappointment and rictal despond.

Why is it that so many of these African talents come to Europe via Scandinavia (France too but that's more longstanding)? Are the visa arrangements comparatively simple?
Is it more difficult for us to be scouting for them directly from academies in Africa as we do in South America?

Nordsjælland are owned by an African academy.

Cheer up mate. Plenty of positives to look forward to with this club.

Interesting.
Seems like a few other hyped African kids have been coming through the Nordics recently, I want to say Molde in particular but that may just be perception.

It also goes a bit deeper than that, the group that own Right To Dream have set up a really clever system to funnel talent from Africa to Europe via a number of clubs around the world. It's worth a read on Wikipedia. I believe this will be the future of football, not that I support it.
