SuperDerbySuperRams 4,069 Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 4 minutes ago, Leicester Ram said: Low risk signing with an extremely high ceiling. It’s a cliche but Ibe clearly needs a bit of love and stability, he’ll get those here as well as a good chance to play plenty of games. Clearly is a talented footballer but was overhyped to a fault by Liverpool supporters, having such high expectations put on him from such a young age clearly harmed him and the Sterling comparison really didn’t help. Rodgers bringing him back off loan for an easy PR win was such a crossroads moment, I wonder what his career would look like now if it never happened. I can see the Cocu/Rosenior/etc dynamic working wonders here Leicester Ram 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Tyler Durden 2,890 Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 Are we in that bad a position that we are having to rely on risky loan signings of players that have hardly kicked a ball over the past two seasons? Is this an indictment of the current loan market, our desperation to bring anyone in, our financial position, our perceived attraction as a club or the combination of the above? I'm not against the loan signing, I personally would have hoped we would be looking at loanees coming in with far more solid track records. Maybe my expectations are too high. 86 Hair Islands, LauraH and GrimsbyRam 3 Link to post Share on other sites
Andicis 11,313 Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 This is EXACTLY what we need. Fast, athletic, perfect for stretching play. Has the elusive pace that we're missing.

OohMartWright 1,953 Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 As has already been posted above, I firmly believe that Jordon Ibe being recalled cost us promotion that season. If he gets back to anywhere near that level we are in for a treat. 'Rambe33 and LeedsRam1999 2 Link to post Share on other sites
EnigmaRam 4,497 Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 This, if true would be really good business for us. It essentially means we are getting 2 young wingers in that are both exciting to watch. When you consider we are getting both for £4 mil is exceptional and reduces the risk from the Kamil fee aswell Indyram 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Floppy Sausage 57 Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 Would love this due to what he did last time and he has pace which we really need. Him, Jozwiak and Lawrence in the number 10 role would be amazing, but Ibe has been poo the last two years and been in a heap of trouble, sooooo a big risk. Link to post Share on other sites
ram1964 1,792 Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 (edited) ibe should never have gone back to Liverpool when he did. He was just finding his feet at Derby and beginning to show real quality.If he comes in on a reasonable contract this could be lucrative for both parties and a very sensible option for Derby . Probably take a while to get the guys confidence and fitness levels up and for him to mentally be in the right place. A positive move by the Rams and hopefully shrewd business.

Then you look at the careers they’ve both had so far something’s gone really wrong for Ibe somewhere. Still young so hopefully we can get him back to a good level so we can see that confident young winger leaving fullbacks for dead again.

CornwallRam 3,958 Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 When Ibe first joined us on loan he looked like he had a really poor attitude. He would get the ball, try a dribble, lose the ball and stand there with his hands on his hips as if his teammates were to blame for not providing him with the perfect out ball. He looked sullen and selfish - but always with good close control. I really thought he was just a fancy-Dan who had an over inflated idea of his own ability. That pretty much lasted for a bout five games. Then, over the next five games he started to sometimes track back and his runs became a bit more productive - he quickly became an average Championship wide attacker. But huge credit to him, his improvement continued. By the time he left us his defending was like that of an accomplished full back, his attacking was unplayable in this division and he worked his socks off for the team. If Cocu can get the best out of him this will be the signing of the season. Desperate for it to be true. LeedsCityRam, cannable, OohMartWright and 2 others 4 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Dimmu 5,451 Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 Win-win situation for me. If he is not coming, we'll certainly get a suitable striker. If he is coming, it means less game time for Lawrence. Link to post Share on other sites

Shoulder injuries can get complicated and it's surprisingly hard to feel 100% so soon after any sort of surgery or rehab. I reckon he's just taking longer to get back to fitness and we need to strengthen our attack with or without him. Link to post Share on other sites
Kernow 10,234 Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 Absolutely ideal for us if this is true. It’s a relatively low-risk gamble. He was a £15 million player when Bournemouth signed him. One good season at Championship level and he’ll be worth that again. Even if he’s average, at his age and with his attributes, we’d still make a healthy profit. I love that we’re seemingly looking at players on low-cost details with a lot to offer and a high resale value. I hope this means the days of spending big on players nearing the back-end of their peak is over. That’s how we become more sustainable and prevent the financial problems we’ve had to experience recently. Indyram and LeedsRam1999 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Nuwtfly 8,966 Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 "Derby County are making big strides to boost their attacking options. Lech Poznan's Polish international winger Kamil Jozwiak is set to sign and he could be joined by former Liverpool and Bournemouth attacker Jordon Ibe, DerbyshireLive understands. And that is unlikely to be the end of their business as the Rams are also in the market for a striker." https://www.derbytelegraph.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/Derby-countys-stance-signing-jordan-4516852 Andrew3000, LeedsRam1999, NottsRam77 and 7 others 1 6 3 Link to post Share on other sites

Ambitious 10,284 Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 This is his record per club: He's been used as a pair of fresh legs for Bournemouth up until last season where he wasn't even in the side so it's not like he's had the chance. He's probably allowed his head to drop at the lack of opportunity. He wouldn't be the first player and he wouldn't be the last. I just think we need to be patient. He will need to get his fitness back up, but then he can be a real asset in this division. He had an interview in the summer that I'm listening to now - he comes across quite well. sage 1 Link to post Share on other sites
