Can’t be right, surely??! Worth that just to see him tip-toe and spin his way out of trouble twice a game.
The drag back he did against Blackpool was worthy of the admission fee alone, last week. You can get a lot of "big lads" who put tackles in , and play simple 5 yard passes, to keep it safe. In Bahre you have "a footballer". Easily best technical player we have and our coach loves him and can improve him. Looking forward to seeing his development next season.
I feel like other clubs in England would pay £1.5 million for him, based on last season and the potential he has. Absolute steal that price. Can’t believe Hannover sold him to us for that, then also gave us a year free trial! Well done to GG for negotiating that!
Buying players 8 x more than that does not guarantee you are a sublime footballer, factor in wages as well ? How did Bradshaw get on before his injury ? Got a million for him I think, snap their hands off
His defence splitting pass to put Cauley through against Southend away, said everything we needed to know about that boys "future." He's got a good understanding of the game and one important guy in our set up knows that. Been in the UK a matter of months. He is miles from " home", strange food/diet , water, people/ language/ dialect, living arrangements, environment and culture. Give the lad a chance. He will be signed, if he's not sick of being criticised like Brad Potts definitely was, that is.
If he signs permanently, will people start pronouncing his name correctly? It's suppsoed to be more like "bear uh" than "bar ey" which I'm hearing all the time. I have similar gripes regarding the pronounciation of Shhhhhhtendel (iFollow commentary) and Mauwatt (looking at you Quest!).
No brainer to sign him. He's one of my favourite current players to watch, as his skill levels with the ball are fantastic. He's also frustrating to watch at times, undoubtedly. The best comparison I can think of is the early stages of Martin Bullock's career, when he had no end product before finally hitting a screamer from about 20 yards out vs Leicester. I think he'll continue to improve with us.
Total bargain, when the rest of the side improve to his standed and fitness, and they will, his ‘errors’ will be less obvious,
Get. Him. Signed. And if they are daft enough to agree to that price, let's tap them up for a couple more of their young talent too. £50k a pair? Bring it on, get yourself tied to Barnsley, Mikey boy.
At that price it's a snip. Although he's going to have to learn to shoot in the Championship. Chances to shoot are at a premium.
May as well look at the rest of the Hannover reserve/youth squads while we're at it. They may have a buy two, get one free promotion on.
