True, but the bottoms fallen out of the market with all the Covid stuff. This one would have been £6M a year or two back I expect. Also there are very few available at the moment and so we must give it a try.
To be honest Danny Ward is as good as most at this level and unfortunately our manner of play doesn't seem to be striker friendly, so let's hope we've eventually found one who can exploit half chances or even make some of his own.

Yep. Bring back the guy who painted the railings.

The reason Moore is so cheap is Wigan have gone into administration due to their owner swindling them, but I do agree we will see smaller transfer fees overall in the Football League.

The big clubs don't show any signs of letting up though

Got a good feeling about this signing.
I think he will go on to become a fans favourite.

I've said it before, but I reckon if Moore signs, Glatzel could be on his way back to Germany. Hope not, as he could be a good sub, and certainly we need cover up front.

Check his goals on U tube, not just with his head but also good with his feet and hold up play. Wigan’s winger Lowe links up well with him, could replace Whyte?

I was very impressed with him when he played against us at CCS.
Scored a lovely goal and led the line well.
I have a good feeling about him.

Re: Kieffer on his way

Never been impressed.....I suppose if the price is 1.5/2m it might be worth a punt...but he and Glatzel are never going to play together and each are too good to play backup..so Glatzel to leave?? Comparisons with the 'other' Moore, Graham from 1959/60 might be apt...I always thought he was a c art horse and he nevr exactly set the world on fire when he went to Chelsea.

Underwhelmed.

I can see him loaned out back to Germany.

Every time I have seen him play, either for Wales on TV or live for Wigan he hasn't disappointed.

He's been photographed taking a medical, so barring a Marcus Bent style turnaround we'll sign him today.

The first bit is probably a good guess. A 3 year contract is the norm. We think he is in Cardiff and has had a medical or having one today - so a good chance of an announcement today.

On the fee I have seen in recent days very confident claims that it is: £1.85m, £2m, £2.1m, £2.5m and £1.5-2m. They are all guesses.

It does sound though (from the press reports, the fading interest from other clubs and the time this has taken) that the club has been sensible on the fee and personal terms. The balance of transfer power post-Covid seems to have shifted from players and their agents to the clubs - and the clubs are trying to get their cost bases right down.

Glatzel’s not up to it, the club should offload him.

He’ll eventually move on for an ‘undisclosed’ fee.

Zero chance of getting back anywhere near the £5 million paid.

It does seem like some reputable journalists have said that most clubs have offered him similar wages, and he's come down to meet our demands rather than the other way around. Still, seems like we've signed someone who really wants to be here and has chosen us over many other options.

We seem to get the un-German end of the German market. Schwinkendorf and Glatzel being two lightweights that hardly fit the Teutonic, robust stereotype.

What next? Scruffy Italians and skinny Americans?

Makes me laugh how someone who contributed to a thread in which there were many opinions saying how they "could not get near" the ageing former or young not yet pros they played against can be so dismissive about one in this thread.

Suggestions that Moore has agreed a three year deal and will be announced soon.
