blunther Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 I know he's young, but it's a big fee, we're short on forward options and most likely have nothing much to play for other than pride and midtable places this season - maybe we're looking at letting him settle in this season with a few appearances here and there and see if he's got what's needed to compete for starts next year.

MSvillain Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 Wonder if we’ve had this agreed since when archer went out on loan and have been waiting for work permits etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Mark Albrighton Posted January 16, 2023 VT Supporter Popular Post Share Posted January 16, 2023 (edited) Well my attempt to do a bit of digging in how supporters see him took me straight to a forum dedicated to the trials and tribulations of NBC’s hit long running show “Chicago Fire”. Can’t tell you much about Durán but I can tell you that the firefighters are preparing for their semi annual firehouse inspection, someone called Brett will fight to save her paramedicine program. Commander Martin Pearce is also going to ask Severide for a favour. Edited January 16, 2023 by Mark Albrighton 23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WHY Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 6 minutes ago, MotoMkali said: I know 8 goals in 27 games in the MLS doesn't sound great. But it's 8 goals and 5 assists in 1374 minutes. 13 sub appearances. So he's basically bagging a goal or assist every 105 mins. Fans assume because it’s the MLS they should score loads of goals. You have to remember most of the other players they play with will be league one/bottom half of the Championship players at best. Almiron’s best season in the MLS was 12 goals in 32 games and had far more experience than this kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CVByrne Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 He's had a lot of senior football games in Colombia and MLS. Might be ready for next season if we plan loan him out to Championship or to Spain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well it’ll be interesting to see what we do with him, the guy on sky thinks we’ll send him out on loan straight away and he’s watched him a lot. If that’s the case then he’s not ready for our first team squad. Can’t argue that some of his video clips he looked poor and some he looked great but at 19 you expect that. Seems he’s one for the future and not now. Now he’s with us, I hope he’s the new Benteke in a few years time. Just interested now if we keep him around or send him out on loan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
