A striker at last.Darko Churlinov inbound!

That's good BT, however, his antics haven't cost us up to now, just wait until it does and hope that it is not at the Turf because the toilets won't be able to cope!

Never mind, comfort yourself with the fact that, at long last as far as many are concerned, we have joined the brigade of teams that can complete at least 20 passes before managing to get the ball into our opponents' half of the field. Remember that possession is the most important thing in football ---just look at Man United yesterday, they only let their opponents complete 33% possession. That was 4% less than they allowed their opponents last week. So 65% possession over the course of two games, they must be doing well, except that they have only scored 1 goal in spite of having 32 attempts.

Never mind, it will all iron itself out and we will have been entertained with lots of passing football, particulalry involving the goalkeeper et al. Interesting that Benson was seen as the answer after his one half against Luton, however, he turned and passed backwards on Friday more than Dwight ever did, however, not one fan complains about that ---how times change.

I watched Everton yesterday McNeil was shocking. ALK must be rubbing their hands with glee!

Everton had at least five players who were much worse than Dwight yesterday, however, FRank took him off because he knows that he will get no grief off the lad or the fans than if he took some of the others off.

This Darko chappy, I think we're taking a bit of a flyer with him. I'd be very surprised if he can come straight in and win games for us. Then again, I do like a nice surprise.

Reports out of Europe suggest he is very quick, big for a winger and very strong. Be great to see another "Skippy" in action mon ami.

I would much prefer the other lad-Artem Dovbyk-he looks a real handful.Reminds me of Ingsy.

Stuttgart are by no means a powerhouse in German football, but they were quite happy to see him go out on loan last season. Darko is maybe one for the future, whether he can rip up the Championship this season I doubt. We'll see.
