DCJonah Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 My eyes must be playing tricks, I saw loads of varied goals scored in that vid, some of which showed quite impressive footballing vision and athleticism. Was thinking the same. A few long shots, a few headers, calm 1-1 finishes and some attacking the 6 yard box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Photoshopped. Those were Sterling's goals. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Pangloss Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 He's a bag of shit, I really hope this isn't true, if the fee was (e)5m, then fine but £12m is a joke I wish football fans would give opinions and not sit on the fence Admittedly I'm still drunk from last night, seriously hung over and don't know what I'm talking about!

Stevo985 Posted July 24, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted July 24, 2015 The guy is just not worth the money. Twenty million pounds max. Screw that. I wouldn't pay a penny over £35m 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary Thomas Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 Speaking of release clauses I wonder what will be written into the contract - 32.5m seems a popular figure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bunnski Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 All these Jordans we're signing just brings back memories of the great Jordan Bowery. Why sign a Jordan for €17m when we could just resign J-Bowz for a fraction of that? Fools running this club... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOF Posted July 24, 2015 Moderator Share Posted July 24, 2015 I seriously doubt it and Gyan was only a flop in the sense he didn't want to play for them. He had 1 in 3 when he did and he has more than 1 in 1 since he left (albeit in joke leagues). If Ayew is anywhere near as good as Gyan then he'll be a good signing. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
penguin Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 Because they are both from Ghana so must be similar? Gyan wasn't that bad either, just prefers being the huge fish in small ponds picking up big wages. His goal scoring record for Ghana is very impressive.

Popular Post bose Posted July 24, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted July 24, 2015 (edited) Been reading a bit about him on various sites because I knew nothing about him beforehand. He can play all cross the front line but his best performances have come when he has played as a main striker. He came from Marseilles youth team and when older brother Andrew came in to the first team, people said that Jordan was the more talented of the two. He played a bit for Marseille before going on loan for half a season at Sochaux in 13/14 where he managed to score 5 goals. He then moved to Lorient last summer. Although Lorient narrowly avoided relegation last season he managed to score 12 goals (3 penalties, 2 headers, 2 with his left foot and the rest with his right) and provided 7 assists in the process. After his successful season at Lorient he's been linked with moves to both Dortmund and Liverpool. There is not one aspect of his game that stands out over the others he seems rather balanced that way. But he can be very inconsistent - a world beater in one match and terrible in the next. When you just look at his stats he seems to be a bit of a gamble, given that his only really good season was the last one. But I'm sure, if the reports are true, that we'll have scouted him meticulously and he'll be what Tim is looking for. But I think if he's coming here he'll play as a main striker and not as an inside forward or something like that.
