So come on then Mr half a story. Did he kill you or not?

Haha.  No, he took a shot at me but missed ! 

Reality,  Fabian was a regular in ritzy back in the day and a truce was called a couple of weeks later.  You can still find the bloke on fbook.

Mendez lang incoming, according to my lad.

Mendez Gomes.

Excellent. Looked decent him at fleetwood 

Thought he was a winger ? We don’t play with wingers ! 

Minor technicality 

it’s a Nixon link Mendes Gomes

300k is quoted - some saying announced tonight. I’d be surprised 

Has agent magee said owt

Looks a good un.

But no point flapping about whether he will or won’t. Or putting him in our best 11, otherwise we’ll be full of nonsense again like it was with Baccus and Wilson.

Let’s just see how it plays out..

Need a player with a bit of flair and who can make something out of nothing, we lost that when Dapo left

As Rizlar says though, it’s a weird one as he’s more of a winger than a wingback.

according to transfermarkt he can play as a CAM but mostly a Right Winger.

Sadlier always seemed to produce off the bench in wingback position, maybe hope is Mendes Gomes can do it over a full 90…

should be used to defensive responsibility having played for Morecambe and Fleetwood

Let's hope not

A bit more on Zac Ashworth from a Baggie I know connected to the club.

Decent going forward - not especially pacy but technically good on the ball. Good shot on him and can find a good pass. Considered a great prospect.

No at all what I was expecting.

Yup - but it would be nice. He's really sharp and has a great awareness - just what we need.

Presumably he'd want at least Championship football so I guess it's up to the recruitment team to sell the dream.

So CMG is basically the like for like replacement for Kachunga except he can create goals and score a few.

Not really anything not to like is there

Don't worry some fans will find something they can whine about 

So is he the replacement for Lee ?

Think Evatt might use Gomez central receiving ball to feet and turning, that was what he wanted out of Shoretire but wasnt good enough to do, Lee wasn’t that type either, Dapo was trying to learn it but couldn’t, if Gomez can do it he’ll give us another dimension that we haven’t had for a long time.  (Mark Davies, JJ style)

Not announced yet. 

Obviously being a bit cautious after the Baccus and Lewis fiasco’s.

Hope to fuck you're right. Thats exaclty what Kachungas role was meant to be.

I don’t think I’d be using a space in my squad for Jerome and I’d have one eye on shipping Victor out.
