"Swoops". Transfer thread.

Is that not his brother Jacob Sub ?

Aye, sinkov, sorry about the duff gen, I'm losing interest with it all these days.

No probs Sub, it's a bit of a collector's item though, you are not often the purveyor of duff gen.

Swooping for Hannes Delcroix, a Belgian CB from Anderlecht, but injury prone apparently, which is possibly the reason we can get him for around one million euros.

That would be a strange one, sinkov. We are well supplied in that department.

Indeed it is Swiss but apparently it's happening. I presume coming from Anderlecht Vinni knows him well and sees some potential in him.

Signed today on a three year deal.

Strange one, that one. Let’s see what VK has up his sleeve. Maybe he is looking for Stones and Trent A Arnold defenders who can move into midfield as necessary then drop back into the defence. I think Beyer could do that. I don’t know about the others.

Certainly midfield still looks light. We know that Roberts can move into midfield at Championship level. If Berge is the type who can put his foot on the ball and dictate, the others may provide options to play off him.

We haven’t seen enough with only one match but my money is on VK emulating City as far as possible with flexibility in defence and midfield - the latter also supporting the attack. I think that our strikers are the type that require balls to run on to - a midfielder able to pick a pass will bring out the best in them. They look pacy and a bit stronger than Tella.
