Jack Willow reacted to S8TY in Serdar Dursun
So come on then mister happy ....you berate everything ...what would you do??? And don’t say would have kept Martin because he’s gone!!! If we sign a 10m striker you’d say it’s a gamble and can’t afford it if we try and sign a player no one knows you find something to criticise his age or anything so it doesn’t matter who we sign does it...just what exactly are you expecting ffs...our scouting team has been slated including from myself....now we are looking further afield at players we’ve never heard of and that’s wrong ....so please tell us Roy ...what exactly would stop your non stop vitriol ....

No I haven’t but when I go to games there are always people moaning like duck about everything and I usually tell them to stfu if it’s constant moaning at our players there is no way you moan like an old woman constantly on here then go to the game ( if you go at all ) and then get behind the team ...you’re one of those constantly whining moaning lot ...you are never satisfied Roy unless you’re moaning about something ....question ? do you get right behind the lads when the game kicks off ?? or just waiting for a bad pass a mistake etc etc

This man looks quicker than Chris Martin, is taller, can tackle, use both feet and can dribble well. This is based on the highlights of 5 different videos I have watched. Even if he don't get 15 to 20 goals, he looks like a player that can put himself about. Keeping the opposition defence busy, could be the missing piece of the jigsaw. And with Lawrence, Waghorn, Holmes, Bielik, Ibe to come in to the team I think things will get better.

You can watch the game on YouTube:
I've just had it on in the background, so whilst I couldn't focus on it. I was at least able to see parts of his game.
He's technically gifted for a big striker. He definitely comes across as a Ibrahimovic type player, lots of flicks and touches in tight spaces. Like Martin, he doesn't like moving too much when he doesn't have to. I would say he's far less likely to drop into space to get the ball. He seems to be stretching the field and sitting on the last man, ultimately means that he doesn't get many touches.
He scores twice: the first is a simple tap in from a Norwich error. The second is a header from close range. Darmstadt were frankly quite awful, Norwich were equally as bad once it got late into the second half. Dursun seems to be one of their most capable players, but I must stress that they have some that I think would struggle to get a game for a good Sunday league team.
I would be quite interested to see how he gets on. He's going to fill the Martin role, certainly, but I think his movement off the ball which was a red flag to me could go to show that he will struggle to get into games at this level and a lot of the time he will be a traffic cone sat between the 2 or three defenders.

A little bit of Brazilian samba by Serdar "Zlatan" Dursun.

With the obvious caveat that this is a highlight reel and you could make anyone look like a world beater if you only took their best moments, this video did definitely grab my attention.
Coconut’s right that a lot is deep, but this isn’t just a video of someone scoring tap-ins, it contains him doing a lot of different things:
- linking up with wide players
- tracking back to win the ball and start an attack
- cute flicks round the corner under pressure
- aerial presence
- ability to hold the ball up and wait for support
Now, all this video shows us is that he can do all of these things or at least that he has done them once. The challenge for the recruitment team is to ascertain whether he does them enough to be a good fit for us. As has been mentioned elsewhere, the other signings so far this window give me confidence that if they think he’s the guy, I’ll back them.

Nobody had ever heard of Paolo Wanchope before he signed for us, so the "Well I've not heard of him" criticism is plain daft as far as I can tell.
If this is real and if he does turn up he should get a fair crack, on paper he looks like he could be good. Worth a punt.

Scored 2 goals against Norwich in a pre season friendly.
Surely an omen to get him in before Saturday?

Jack Willow reacted to Black ('n' White) Sheep in Serdar Dursun
A player I've never heard of... but his stats seem to match what we're looking for. Coming into his prime at 28. A year left on his contract. His scoring record isn't half bad either (averaging 1 in 2 across league and cup in Germany last season... the German Steve Howard??). I'd be for this ?

Derby fans want a 6'3" 23 year old England international striker, with ten years premier league experience, scores thirty goals a season has a transfer fee of £100,000 and will play for £500 pounds per week. And they would still moan about him. Although it is not just Rams fans that are miserable moaning,glass half empty buggers, Derby people are all like that.

Looks quite mobile for a big guy, something Martin definitely wasn't

Jack Willow reacted to Jubbs in Serdar Dursun
2. Bundesliga is probably the 2nd best if not best quality 2nd division in the world along with the Championship. He got 16 goals and 6 assists last season, puts himself about and wins a lot of aerial duels. He has 1 year left on his contract as well. Lets be honest, we're a Championship team, what sort of players should we be looking at signing? It's unrealistic hoping for top quality, amazing players that play in top divisions. This is a sensible signing, I hope the link is legit.

From a distance, a considerable distance, he looks like Ibrahimovic - tick
Don’t think we ever signed anyone with a bit of Turkish ancestry, which is a bit random - tick
German bloodline too, so can play emergency centre back and will be good at penalties - tick
Dur dur dur Durhhh Ser Dar Dur Sun.
