Seems we've got him on a two year loan with an option to buy him for £3.5 million when he's nearly thirty three.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Craig_Bryson
Always thought he was one of Derby's better players, but he had mixed reviews in this thread with the view that he is not the player he was three years ago being expressed - the goals have a tendency to start drying up for "goalscoring midfielders" once they get the wrong side of thirty as well.

Nevertheless, he came on and scored on Saturday for Derby, so he seems to be over his recent fitness problems and he would appear to have a goal or two left in him yet.
I've become very much an "in Warnock I trust" man when it comes to new signings, because, largely speaking, that QPR fan who told us to expect "underwhelming signings which work" on the day he was appointed by City has been proved right - can't help thinking that he may have bitten off more than he can chew with Liam Feeney though.
2 year loan :shrug:Quote:

Happy with the signing though :thumbup:
No, it's someone either messing about or getting their facts wrong - season long loan according to the City website and Warnock says Bryson was a player he really wanted, but didn't think he had much chance of getting.Quote:

Things all going good hey?? Feels almost strange for our club.....
Why would we buy a 33 year old for nearly £4m?
One of us is going to be the stupid party in this deal.
It's a loan of a 30 year old till the end of the season.Quote:

So he will be our defensive mf cover imo, with bryson playing in front of the Ralls/Gunners axis.Quote:

Team will probably be: Etheridge, Peltier, Morrison, Bamba, Bennett, Gunnarsson, Bryson, Ralls, Mendez-Laing, Zohore, Hoilett.
Subs: Murphy, Richards, Manga, Damour, Tomlin, Ward, Feeney. Strong bench and no place for Pilkington, Halford, Bogle or Connolly.
With Camp,Healey and Patterson still injured.
That's a pretty strong squad. And we've unloaded, Noone, John, Kennedy and O'Keefe.
To fit what?Quote:

He did, however, play 90 minutes in the cup V Grimsby - so basically half a game - about 45 minutes in total of league football and a full game in the knockabout cup. I don't think that makes him match fit quite yet. Hopefully, he will get to the level shortly and play a vital role in the team/ squad.Quote:
