What do you mean by a Tan signing? Tan indicated that he would be a lot more involved in Ole's premier league and summer window and that at this time he set up a transfer committee. Since those two windows it's become harder to distinguish who in the committee has had lead say on each transfer, however Zohore was a committee signing.
If you want to give Tan some more credit that he's used to then Bergerstall has been doing fairly well in the Bundersliga, so while he didn't work out here it's more likely Tan had a say and it seems that the theory behind it was smart.
Is anyone bothered about squabbling over tan anymore? He behaved like a proper twat a few years ago, he seems to have learned the error of his ways and seems to be leaving the running of the club to people that know what they're doing and I think the fans appreciate that. I hated the whole rebranding but it's behind us now, it's history.
who needs Adebayor when we got kenny zohore...
I thought at the time that cross from Ken at the end was good but watching it again on the highlights, it really was terrific. He's on the corner of the area, back to goal, three or four defenders around him and he flicks in an inch perfect cross. Such a shame John didn't quite connect. This is why we so desperately need a poacher to play alongside him.
I shudder to think of our attack without him.......
20m? Getting a bit carried away here aren't we?
In a sane world Yes. The money in the Premiership is no longer sane and I really think this represents his potential come this Summer. Defenders in the Championship are not much different to those in the Premiership and Zohore is leaving many of them for dead.
The real question is why would we sell him for less if we have promotion ambitions? We either need to get a ridiculous offer for him or we keep him and have one less player to worry about buying.
Was this his debut?
I remember the game vividly.
He came off the bench and so nearly scored THREE times in the 11 or so minutes he played.
The impact he had was astounding and the lob referred to in the report i remember as if it was
yesterday.

Note name spelling in the report.

No - debut in February 2016:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kenneth_Zohore
On transfer deadline day of January 2016, Zohore joined Championship side Cardiff City on loan from Belgian side K.V. Kortrijk, who signed him that same day from OB. He made his debut on 6 February, in a goalless draw against Milton Keynes Dons, coming on for Sammy Ameobi. He came on to score his first goal for the club on 19 April, against Brentford, followed by his second against Bolton Wanderers.
His finishing and first touch is still a bit shit. Although improvIng seemingly day by day.
If he fine tunes these he will be a hell of an asset
People getting carried away regarding a player who has only had less than half a season in reality. Time to see how good he is will be next season, he's a long way from being as good as Chopra, Bothroyd, McCormack or Earnshaw.
£20 million? Someone's living in fantasy land.
Time will tell, but let's hope he proves to be as good as his predecessors.
Can't remember if it was before or after this he came on for the last 10 away at Brentford when we were 2-0 down and buried.
What he did then, winning headers, scoring and so narrowly away from an equaliser with a lovely chip caused me to post the next morning something along the lines of 'right at the end of the season we've found a striker'
Looked for a long time like I'd misjudged it, fair to say he's starting to make that comment look a fair bit less like 'wishful thinking' now
He still needs to show it over a longer period to be worthy of a £10m+ price tag, but how nice it is to be able to talk about a player like this for the first time in ages
