I’ll take your word for it. 😐

Ffs Mike I can't read that :biggrin:

As it became known to "SE", the forward of "Zenith" and the Russian national team Artem Dziuba interested in "Cardiff City". The 29-year-old striker attracted attention from the Welsh club with his performance at the World Championship as part of the national team - in four games at home tournament he scored 3 goals and also made one assists.

In the season-2017/18 at the club level, the striker played 24 matches in all tournaments as part of the St. Petersburg team, scoring 2 goals and making 3 assists. The spring part of the championship of Russia he held in rent in Tula "Arsenal". In 10 games on his account 6 goals and 3 assists.

The contract of Dzyuba with "Zenith" is calculated until the summer of 2020. Its transfer value, according to transfermarkt.de, is 7 million euros or 6.1 million pounds. (Sergey Egorov)

I don't think this is a good move for us. We already have too many of this type of striker and I'm not convinced he has the touch or movement we'll need in the Prem. I'd rather spend the remaining money on the midfield than here.

Vinny's getting the Russian Mafia on board :hehe:

Never buy a player off the back of a good performance at an international tournament

Completely agree about his movement and touch. However, we DO need a new striker AND to also improve our midfield.

i just sent that to my wife for a proper layman's translation. trouble is she knows nothing about football. The upside is she has never heard on Man yoo.

I also sent it to my wife for a translation. She said

“... don’t be stupid. You should never buy a player on the strength of one reasonably good performance at a tournament
What’s his record over time and does he perform consistently ?”


TBH she got me there

He does seem to have a good scoring record in russia, but im not sure how well that would translate.
Would certainly offer us something, but you can well imagine us just firing long balls at his head for 90 minutes and creating nothing

Besides which we also have comrade Madine.

Mine said......7ft tall striker who scores against the best teams in the world? Why can’t we just get someone from Brentford.

He’s not had a good performance at a tournament his stats the last few years are decent.

Would be an upgrade on Madine for sure.

Sludge would be an upgrade on Madine.
Regarding this Russian, he's got a good record for Zenit and they're a good side who regularly play in European competitions, it's a yes from me.
I think we need another player like that, Madine isn't good enough and Ken, whilst big, isn't a battering ram and doesn't play like one.

He's looked decent when I've seen him

Golovin is Russia's best player by far, shame we couldn't afford him

If we're looking for a right back we couldn't do much worse than get that Rodriguez fella from the ruskies.
