Armando Broja

Signing for us from Chelsea apparently. Big lad, still only 23, but I can only recall seeing him a couple of times when he was on loan at Southampton and he looked a bit of a donkey to me. His goal scoring record is about on a par with Foster's, which doesn't bode well.

I think it is as good as it gets for us signing a striker. Hopefully he can find his way under Parker.

Perfect strike partner for Foster.Between them they might get a couple of goals in 38 games.
We really are not interested in making a fight of it this coming season.Josh Sargeant would have been a much better addition but it looks like he was too expensive for our wannabee multi-team empire owners.Sunderland haveloaned a proper young talented striker from Chelsea and I predict that we will be the most likely team to be relegated this season.Back to the Championship next Summer.
If that is the best they can come up with after 2 years of searching for a striker then the recruitment team needs sacking.Cannot imagine what big him up introduction video they are going to come up with for this dud.

Broja is only 23 and has played little football over the last 3 years due to an ACL tear and then various other injuries.

We have made a massive gamble due to his medical history. If we can keep him fit and get him up and running, this could turn out to be a good signing.

We have to take a gamble has we can't afford a striker who is going to bring us 10 goals plus at this level, and if we could they wouldn't sign for us

Never seen him play but read that he is 6'3" , good build, a battering ram with of pace, everything that Foster isn't

He actually scored against us for Southampton in the 2-2 draw down there in October 21. 3 mins 27 secs in.

He looks quite good in that video, but then, don't they all.

If a player goes through the Chelsea academy into the first team the player must have some credentials. Depends on the fee but he's got to be worth a gamble.

Some Chelsea site says they wanted 25 million for him and we have met their valuation. Seems unlikely to me, I can't imagine we've paid much more than 15 million.

We’ve been begging for a centre forward to be signed for years and what is the response when we sign one?

[WillPark]

Waiting for the confirmation, but yeah we?re a tough crowd!

We already have one non-scoring centre-forward, do we really need another ?
