Think it's work permit related.
he doesn't qualify for a work permit for us.
he might after half a season playing in Belgium?
good player above his station for where he is... lots of good players over there that would do well here
fitness levels and discipline, he has a great left foot, very whitts like... and likes a good sliding tackle, will that wash with the championship players and refs not sure
young and good though... will he ever make it here thats the thing, has to play for eu poins before he can come
In out in out shake it all about,
is malky doing scout work for us now... 1 for the future lol
from what I've seen in very limited grainy YouTube footage he plays a bit like a left sided Perry Ng.
Not beating his man out wide for pace, but tucking in and delivering raking passes from the half spaces.
Could be a nice balance to the side with them both involved (in the longer term).
Would also give options for 3 at the back
I was reporting this in my blog piece on the Leeds game - Bulut confirmed the move ten days ago.
No need for anyone to Ryot now
You predicted a Ryot.Quote:

It has to be real signings with a view to next season, or nothing, so maybe we just get another 1 or 2 this month..
Let's hope they don't do the unexpected and just sign players to appease some of the fans otherwise it cuts down our flex in the summerQuote:

High energy players are appreciated, but too often at Cardii, high energy comes at the expense of technique.Quote:

Harry Arter and Craig Bryson are two that spring to mind. Both players could huff & puff without ever managing to blow the house down.Quote:

Without thinking about it too much. Yakou Meite, Will Vaulks, Leandro Bacuna, Karlan Grant (to an extent), Ebou Adams, Andy Rinomhota and Manolis Siopis (to an extent) - they're not all bad players by any means and I'm not saying you can be a successful team without a fair share of grafters in there, but the balance at City has been weighted too far in one direction for ages.Quote:

Who’s we? I mean the club, but it can include the fans as well, I can remember the way Steve McPhail was treated at times and I can remember Ole taking Whitts in the first half of a game with Norwich and there were plenty in the crowd that cheered.Quote:
