[Feck_the_Huns]

Is this to replace Dom Ball, beef up the U20 side, join the 1st team squad, or phit?

Never played a game for Citeh, been on loan to some div 2 Italian diddy teams, by the looks of it

[Aldo1983]

There's only one...

Chidiebere Chijioke Nwakali

[donsdaft]

Ooooh another loan from a big club, remember and tug the forelock lads.

[Pacman1903]

Ahhh that guy

Defensive mid apparently so I'm going to guess hes here to replace Tansey and hopefully stop us ****ing about with O'Connor there.

As long as we get one or two of these i'll be fairly happy.

[Aldo1983]

Some point in the future, every player in the world will be on loan from Man City or Chelsea.

To be fair, loan or not, he has to be a better option than Tansey. This boy has been playing regular in Norway as of what looks like their last game before the winter break.

I don't mind loans like this.

[donsdaft]

I refer you to your first sentence.

[Mr_Grieves]

At least we've strengthened in the right areas this transfer window which hasn't always happened in the past, lets face it he can't be any worse than Tansey was.

This looks a nae bad side:


Lewis
Logan Arnason McKenna Shinnie
Nwakali
McGinn Christie McLean GMS

Ahhh that guy

Come on, give the loon a chance.

[donsdaft]

It's nae a case of giving the loon a chance.

I hope he's great.

He's nae our player though.

[Pacman1903]

Come on, give the loon a chance.

Im only joking. Welcome aboard Chidy.....Chiddie.....Chi............min

But were we not linked with another but and ended up with him. How did that happen?

[afc1903mad]

Nae idea.

Might have preferred the other one, but maybe he has more of a chance with Citeh given he was the Development Squad Captain.

This might be a better opportunity to make more permanent if he fairs well in the next 6 months

[Pacman1903]

I did notice he was out of contract in the summer. He may end up permanent if any use

[donsdaft]

Or if he's any good he could sign for Celtic and they could loan him out to ( insert name here)

[RED_JOHN]

I am with you on this one. Nothing like giving our young players a chance.

[Aldo1983]

I am with you on this one. Nothing like giving our young players a chance.

To be fair, I'm not sure who we have youth wise for that particular role. All the highly rated ones are wingers or attacking midfielders. A decent centre back and striker right now as well I believe. Storrie is the only youth player if you like and he's long term injured.

[vinnydesalvo]

20013 World Cup U-17 winner along with Iheanacho, prior to them both going to City. Couple of seasons regular football in the Eliteserien. Called up to the Nigerian squad in October for couple of friendlies - outside chance of making World Cup squad. Brother is at Arsenal.

In an ideal world - would have liked to see the club make a move for Docherty. If realism is going with the City nurtured potential of this young lad ahead of seeing O'Connor, Tansey or Ball in the engine room - we possible might have a better crack at having a Kante like effect in there.

Will be interesting to see how much game-time he is given as a regular arrangement with City would be no bad thing for a club living within its means. The wee lad may be in for a bit of a shock turning up for training in our version of the £200m Etihad campus.

I didn’t realise he has a long term injury. Ach...I am a hard lad to please about defensive midfielders coming in. We don’t need 2 every game we play. Nothing to do with the lad though as it is Del’s tactics that I don’t like.
Good luck to the lad and welcome to the Dons.

[PittodriePile]

I can't seem to find anything posted by AFC today about this loan signing. I had seen them earlier on as well. Wonder why this is? Maybe it's not a done deal? Work permit related?

[Hairdrier]

It looks like there has been a c*** up on the recruitment front. I thought there was a bit of cash floating about to at least get players in who aren't on loan.

[rico94]

Had wondered about the absence of Storie, given we had not punted him out again.
Fit's worse wi 'im?

The worst thing with him I heard is that he has got a tattoo with 5 stars on it.

[Aldo1983]

He is from carluke which is part of the "loyalist triangle"

[Jupiter]

The loyalist triangle - what the hell is that? Is it some hunnish version of the Bermuda triangle where stuff mysteriously disappears?

[Aldo1983]

Yes...

Catholics disappear.

There's also a republican triangle.

It’s more of a loyalist Tetracontagon.

The lad is only showing ambition....he wants another 3 Euro trophies on our club badge before he retires. :p

That whole area is hoaching.

As I said I cant wait to go and see the Buffs :blue:

Might be an idea to punch your own teeth out & get a face tattoo, just to blend in

[donsdaft]

Isn't Scotland lovely?

[DonUnder]

The worst thing with him I heard is that he has got a tattoo with 5 stars on it.

That's pretty .... common here too. Wonder if he can bowl?

[Aldo1983]

Bowler hat

[Aldo1983]

Masonic handshake and looks like he's had a milk and paper round. Exactly what we need.

[NaeMairNeeps]

Seen mair meat on a butchers pencil .... shouldna get a game til he's well intae a regime o'porridge, Aitken's/Thains rowies, a daily visit tae Greggs, and copious helpins o' cheesy chips an' gravy .... itherwise, yer average dirty-b@stard-SPFL-clogger will snap the f**ker.

[Don_Corleone]

Doesn’t look very tall either, must be more your Makalele type than Viera.

Anyway... “Chidie, Chidie bang bang, chidie, chidie bang bang we love you...”

Looks like the start of a great song (assuming he plays).
Need to expand it more though(I'm nae good at these things)

Haha - not bad. Unless the boy is utterly amazing it's probably too tough a tune to bother trying to fit words to.

On another note, who was the last Nigerian we had? He was here for a while, touted as being mega talented and ended up playing maybe just once or twice - Uchechi or something?

[donsdaft]

He's not a winger though (is he?)

If he turns out to be a honest hard working midfielder with a bit of talent then he will be an improvement.

But as a loan player he's a stopgap and should be treated as such.

[andoplzcumbak]

As long as he's here he gets my support. Let's hope hes working really hard in an attempt to break into the Man City team.

It's a bit of a double edged sword in that if he's really good, a championship, Celtic or some other pile of cash laden ****e will just snap him up.

He could find himself on the pitch a fair bit with Tansey away and Storie long term injured.

Danny Uchechi, only played once for us.
Signed as a defender from West Ham after being out on loan.

Good shout. I always assumed he was Morroccan. He hung oot with the guys from Kordoba on George Street who were Morroccan. One of them told me he used to live on his street as a kid. I just got added 2 and 2 and clearly got -237. Couple of times me and my bro met Karim there after a few post Pittodrie beers

Happy memories of the Córdoba on George street. Used to have to walk past that and the 24 hours thains to get to my flat. Nae wonder I put weight on. That was a lethal combination at the end of the night. Nae as good as wee Vito when he had the an noor on Bridge street though

[Pauldolski10]

I just wikipediad him. Dutch with Moroccan descent so nay too far away.

His WP approved yet?

Read on the club website they are hopeful of having him available tomorrow ....

Have to go back a bit but Stan Williams who scored the winning goal in the 1947 cup final was South African. :p
