Capt. Pants 4,262 Posted June 27, 2021 The red card has changed the game but it was a stupid handball. Czechys have been great though, some really good players in that team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Has put together some solid seasons in Serie A but for some reason hasn't kicked on for Udinese. I think we should do this! Someone tell Webber! 🙂 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nope, still think we’ve not looked all that thus far. Hopefully we’ll start moving through the gears from Tuesday onwards! But it’s Germany... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Branston Pickle 3,667 Posted June 27, 2021 Could do worse than look at some of those guys - but sadly bigger sides with deeper pockets might be thinking much the same. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I had a season ticket at Lecce in the 2019/20 season when Barak was there and I was a massive fan. I was thinking last summer that Norwich could use him as a Stiepermann upgrade but he ended up going to Verona on loan instead, and although I haven't seen anything recently about it, Verona do have the option to sign him permanently which they will exercise (if they haven't already). I kept a close eye on him last season at Verona and he was excellent again, so he may have played himself out of our price range. I was also very surprised he didn't get a chance in the group stages as he's a quality player. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Again at 6”3 and pretty solid would certainly add to our squad. Trouble now is that those younger next in line from these leagues are out of our range due to Brexit!

As well as his physicality, he's also got a thunderous left foot and decent footballing brain. I also remember an interview he gave during last season in which he expressed a desire to play in the Premier League... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
