[life on mars]

Another new player , will we have enough kit to go around??

Cardiff City are poised to announce their fourth signing of the summer with Nigeria international Jamilu Collins to undergo a medical today (May 19).

Least inspiring so far. Let’s hope the scouting has been good.

Cardiff City complete a fourth summer signing. Nigerian international Jamilu Collins joins the club on July 1st. Collins is primarily a left back with 25 caps for his country. He joins from Paderborn

Bagan had that period of the season where he was on fire. A Nigerian international is good competition for the lad. Or he can fit in elsewhere. Don't think JC is going to be player of the season but I really like it as an addition to the squad.

Now give us more please!

Why the least inspiring Des? It's the one I'm most pleased about so far

Seems like a squad player, we need a hell of a lot of players so not every one is going to be a starter.

Re: Jamilu Collins - Signing confirmed

we might be surprised by this one, his stats from a defensive point of view are pretty decent

Another good article giving insight as to how this came about

Any relation to James?

My brother-in-law is Nigerian (and a City fan - although he also follows Arsenal) and is a keen follower of the Nigerian national team.

He rates him highly.

Great engine, fast, dribbles and is hard as nails.

He was surprised we got him as some premier league clubs had been sniffing around.

Funny enough, I think it is the most astute to date.. certainly the less risky.

Saying that, happy with our dealings so far... given our financial situation.

To get 4 players in for free, at their ages, certainly increases the value of our squad.

Morison maybe enjoying himself signing these players, but he's got his work cut out moulding them into a decent team, but this was always going to happen this summer regardless of who was in charge.
