    Hopefully Boingy, he can be what we need. A goal scorer and keep fit. Most of all, I hope, if it comes to fruition, he can deal with the rigours of the Championship.

    Hes been called a cheaper Haaland. Needs a bit of work but if hes like Heggem hell be up for it.

    Sounds promising-right age (23), not prolific in more recent seasons (2022- 14, 2023 -3, 2024 -15 and 2025 -7) but seems to know where the net is and should be keen to impress.

    I think the 7 was from 13 appearances.

    If he does sign, and Maja and Dike can remain fit, we should be OK in this area. As I have said in another thread though, it is creativity where we are lacking and need to rectify this problem.

    That's true Boingy, but equally he scored only 3 in 25 appearances across both league and cup games in 2023. Even so, I agree that he is a promising signing and his more recent form of 7 goals in 13 games is not something to be sniffed at!

    It will be interesting to see how Ryan Mason sets up our attacking formation this coming season, especially if Maja and Dike can remain fit. Guess a lot also depends, of course, on the service our central attacking players can get and who can fulfill the wide positions if we do end up losing both Mikey and Tom.

    I would be hopeful we could keep Fellows, I said hopeful. A very young manager can have an appeal to a young upcoming player like Fellows. He could do worse then leave now at this time when we could be about to build a team around players of his own age group.
    He might stay till the new year anyway.

    I would rather we sell Fellows and use the money to improve our midfield. I know I might be controversial, but I think that Tom is a bit of a one trick pony. One has to admire his stepovers, crosses and pull backs however he lacks strength and his finishing is fairly weak especially on his left foot. A couple of decent midfielders seems imperative to our club if we are to progress further than last season.

    I'd love to see Fellows crossing with a big target man strong in the air to aim at. Something we haven't had since? I assume Heggebo fits the the bill.
