Ghost of Clough Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 I'm no doubt being far too ambitious with these suggestions, and I wouldn't be surprised if they're signed by some top division sides within the next year, however... Tashreeq Matthews - 23 year old winger playing fir Sirius in Sweden. Former Dortmund youth player who has 10 goals and 10 assists in 30 games this season Sebastian Nanasi - 21 year old winger playing for Malmo in Sweden. 11 goals and 7 assists in 29 games. Jeppe Okkels - 24 year old winger for Elsbord in Sweden. 11 goals and 6 assists in 30 games. 1 year left on his deal. Faris Moumbagna - 23 year old forward. 24 goals and 9 assists in 36 games for Bodo in Norway. Made his Cameroon debut last month.

German CB anyone lol French striker lol Can but hope lol There was a story at the start of the season about possibly relaxing the post Brexit rules on work permits. Under the old rules we would have zero chance of signing anyone from abroad. Anyone have the details of what the new rules are? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem is I can't see any of them being Warnes type of player really. (I really like them though...). Ghost of Clough 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Day Posted December 11, 2023 Share Posted December 11, 2023 Buying from abroad is risky business if you don't have the scouting setup out there and connections that can give you the inside track on their life off the pitch. Not sure the days of Jim Smith watching a VHS and saying sign him up is the way to go. therealhantsram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Warne has no established connections outside of the UK, it's definitely risky business. BathRam72 and taffyram 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you mean FM....Football Manager? I've never been near it but heard the founder/inventor say that it was originally purchased by geeks to play in their bedrooms but now, the stats are so accurate and wide ranging, that about 50% of sales are to professional clubs. No idea if it's better to get an old geezer with a cap and a lanyard to watch Pablo Al-McSheznyski in the flesh once or look at his lifetime stats.
