It's Character Forming 1,204 Posted January 3, 2017 Thanks LC, when I saw the message heading I assumed it was an "amusing" made up name & was trying to think how it would sound if you said it out loud, but then I saw that you were the poster so I took it seriously. Never heard of him but looks interesting... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lessingham Canary 108 Posted January 3, 2017 Take your point ICF, mind you his name would lend itself to the old Gary O''Neil song.....If someone could do a clicky on the link would be appreciated, the lad looks half decent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Smith 2,610 Posted January 3, 2017 If we are to sign a striker in this window then this is the type of player we should go for. Youngish, hungry and probably happy to come off the bench initially.Wed have just got Nelson firing on all cylinders, we should not be signing someone like Hogan who will no doubt be put straight into the side at Nelson''s expense.Selling Brady and getting a back up left back and genuinely quick left wing option our priorities if you ask me.

daly 551 Posted January 3, 2017 Perhaps we swap him for AN''s first balls up in the transfer market for Parle Vous Francias Andreau Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kick it off 2,062 Posted January 3, 2017 He also got the assist for the other goal with a clever backheel.6''2 and only 24. Scored 31 in 64 for Grimsby. Both footed too.Obviously never seen him play, and youtube is a dangerous game, but what he''s got on there is impressive. Looks to be very skillful for a big man. Got a bit of pace and very strong. Also gets a fair few assists and at one point in the youtube vid does a couple of stepovers and whipped in a peach of a cross. Reminds me a bit of Efan Ekoku in terms of playing style from what I can see on the youtube montage.Would definitely be a different option to what we have at the moment. Presuming it doesn''t break the bank then I''d be happy to give him his chance and see what he can do. Exactly the sort of striker we should be going for.

Angry man 0 Posted January 3, 2017 This is the type of player we should be looking at, like we used to do, buy raw talent bring them on!!.Work with a Grimsby town fan, he really rates him, big, quick and knows where the net is!!. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chesney Hawkes 0 Posted January 3, 2017 Anagram of name is "Me Goal Orb" which indicates he will win the ballon d''or. Sign him up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lincoln canary (& Golden Coppel) 0 Posted January 3, 2017 Seen him play a few times. He''s very hit and miss tbh, but does score goals. I''m not convinced he can make the step up, plus Grimsby will want decent money for him - £3 to 4 million at least.I''d rather go back in for Britt Assombolonga at forest, if the price is right.

Move Klose 303 Posted January 3, 2017 If you think Grimsby would get anywhere near £3-4m for him then your mad. Be suprised if it was more than £1m. If your paying that for a league 2 striker than we have big problems in the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rogue Baboon 0 Posted January 3, 2017 Was wondering when Assombalonga''s name would get a mention...Seems to be injured all of the time, if we have to sell to buy do we want to spend that much on players who either are unknown quantities (Bogle) or have checkered injury records (Assombalonga)?

HazzaJet 267 Posted January 3, 2017 Sounds like he''s a decent player but is he proven in the Championship? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lessingham Canary 108 Posted January 3, 2017 Thanks for the links to video clips guy''s.Anything under £2m would look good value for long term. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
king canary 8,757 Posted January 3, 2017 Norwich can''t really afford to buy the finished article, even at Championship level. Hogan will probably fetch over £10m, Wells about £8m (would be more but he''s apparently turned down a new contract) and we can''t really afford that. Taking a chance on a young up and comer sounds like the right idea to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
