Apologies for not being arsed to type out "central defensive midfielder" if that's what you want. You've missed the point entirely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And we do have 2 others who have at least played in that position at this level, so could do that in an emergency. I still think Brys was a genuine option, more than just a back up, for that position. Guess it's opinion, but I'd have liked him to stay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I presume you we debating assigning players to exact positions within a wider position. So a "midfielder" who can only play "defensive" rather than attacking? If not then correct me, but I was simply referring to the two defensive midfielders our formation lends itself to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TobyWanKenobi Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 I'm not going to pretend I've ever heard of him before, I'll just hope he comes in and does better than Bryson and Butterfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ambitious Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Steady performer. Although, I'm not expecting too much from him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For three years of difference I sense he's a much better choice. He was also the captain in Groningen in the Netherlands and he's ex-Dutch U21.

SuperDerbySuperRams Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Rowett - in terms of desire, hunger and tackling, he's the best player he's ever worked with Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DcFc Dyycheee Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Gary speaks very highly of him in his interview for Rams TV. Says in terms of desire and drive, he's the best he's worked with. Something we seriously lacked. Seems a good signing and should free up Huddlestone to do his thing now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We add a striking option and send out a player who never really took off here in Butterfield. In this system, he's got no place. We'll get more out of Winnall in this set-up than we would Butterfield. Bryson is a bit of a tough one, but he needed a change. Kieftenbeld comes in for £300k. Solid defensive minded midfielder, much better suited to 4-2-3-1 than Butterfield or Bryson. People reading too much into this one day! This transfer window has seen the arrival of Davies,Wisdom,Huddlestone,Lawrence,Winnall (loan) and Kieftenbeld (6 in total) Sold Hughes,Ince,Christie,Blackman(loan) released Camara, Bryson (loan with permanent transfer in January) and Butterfield (loan) (7 in total) I think that's decent business.More to come in January!

I'd question why it took til the last hour of the transfer window to bid for him in that case, but hopefully he can apply those skills here and make us all the better for it.

I really can't say for ex-English U21 players of that age whether they are sh*** or not, but some of ex-Dutch U21 players were definitely world-class players in their careers. Notable players: Roy Makaay - Arnold Bruggink - Wilfred Bouma - Peter Wisgerhof - Victor Sikora - Mark van Bommel - Jo Bonfrere Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink - Dirk Kuyt - Kenneth Vermeer - Gijs Luirink - Nicky Hofs - Stijn Schaars - Urby Emanuelson Romeo Castelen - Klaas-Jan Huntelaar - Robin van Persie - Boy Waterman - Ron Vlaar - Ryan Donk - Gianni Zuiverloon Hedwiges Maduro - Otman Bakkal - Maceo Rigters - Ryan Babel - Royston Drenthe - Tim Krul - Erik Pieters Maikel Keiftenbeld is definitely a Championship level player, he's not a world beater.
