First signing completed and it´s another swede: Astrit Ajdarevic (parents come from Balkan). Don¨t have too high hopes. Seen him play in Sweden and he is ok but he lacks speed. Can hit the ball well though and is a good passer of the ball.
I know footballers are paid well but sometimes they are treated like shite and passed around.
Anyone that comes in on loan, I hope they are given full support and the opportunity to impress. Can't be good for confidence and morale to be shipped off to another country on your own!
Some of our loan players in the past have had a real tough time being left up the Marriott bored out their minds...and they were English!
Can't understand some people. he is 23 and last year was playing regularly in top Belgium division and previous to that had a decent run in Sweden. This guy might actually do a good job for us and we have effectively got him for nothing so any transfer kitty remains untouched. Let's give him a decent valley welcome please!
even though ajdarevic's playing skill is yet to be determined, its nice to see some new faces coming in. what we need most is depth in the squad, something we havent had this season. we have been hampered with injuries, and I for one noticed a massive difference in results as soon as solly came back. as long as the new owner lets SCP have a say I reckon we could make a good investment this janurary. Hopefully we get rid of sordell and get someone worthy that can score some goals
Well we needed bodies through the door. If he's better than Hughes or Pritchard (out of form arguably) then he'll at least make the bench which would make him useful.

We dont have Stewart anymore either
Bit of a late one to blossom but could be very interesting. Would be great to have a player at the World Cup too!
The other one linked has been the Israeli fella Dudu.
Don't forget Dom Dwyer too - wonder if that will happen

Think we'll just refer to him as 'Goochy'
The Valley is his stage.
Good to see us sign someone finally.
