    Interesting to see in a couple of these highlights videos that he scores quite a lot of "fox in the box" type goals - balls go in across the box and heseems to always commit and make the run/ slide in to finish them off.

    We've been lacking a bit of that this year. Remember a bunch of Brittain's crosses fizzing acrosss the face and Frieser or Victor standing at the edge of the box

    Worth a gamble on a free transfer. We need some pace in the side.

    Hoping he’s a replacement for Victor and/or Chaplin, and not the man to replace Dike, though.

    I’m not unhappy with with our new forward and think he his a typical “moneyball” kind of signing. If he’d not already played for us I don’t think there would be so many negative comments on this thread as there is now. Replacement for Dike?I need to go to your Opticans because I can’t see that! :)

    Simeos or Schmidt replacement.

    A quicker & stronger alternative

    Well as it stands, he's the one forward to come in, and Dike is the one forward to come out. At 26, he's not really one for the future, so unless we're keeping Woodrow and Morris, as well as bringing in another forward to go straight into the first team, then he is a replacement for Dike. Whether it's a straight replacement, or if Woodrow goes back to the middle with Cole and Morris either side of him remains to be seen.

    Neither of them kicked a ball for us in the second half of the season. I’m not sure they need replacing.

    I doubt we’ll have seven first-team strikers, so either Cole is Dike’s replacement, or one of Chaplin, Adeboyejo or Frieser is likely to be moving on.

    Or both. Cole replaces Dike in the first 11, while Aitchison, Marsh or a new spreadsheet signing takes the place of Chaplin, Frieser or Adeboyejo as back up.

    No negativity from me, I think it could be a great signing. Besides he'll be in competition with Woody for the "granddad" epithet....

    Lots of people talking about Frieser moving on.

    I actually thought he had a decent first season.

    Could be a good signing see how it pans out 12 goals in spl last season but I think I could score a few in that league. I think at least one of vic,Miller,chaplin,schmidt will leave this summer.

    I wouldn't be surprised if all four of them left. We might get money for Adeboyejo, Chaplin, and Schmidt - perhaps £1million-£1.5million for the three of them.

    It's a pity Ivan Toney is still not our Ivan Toney.

    If we could get an ok fee for him and replace him with someone who's got good potential I'd let him go.
    Wouldn't be sad to see him stay either.
