Good point. There has been no backlash about signing a striker who is unavailable for the first 3 games, as over the entire season both of them will make a massive contribution. JWZ also has huge potential and could help finance a play off push in the next couple of years.

Marriot Ram99 Posted August 8 Share Posted August 8 Hopefully he is not injured in the next few games. Typical Derby if he is out for the season before he arrives. Ram1988 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he injures himself in the 7 whole days we have to wait for him to sign and if his injury is such that he's out for the season, do you seriously believe that we will sign him anyway, paying up to £1.4M for the privilege, or are you just implying we will so you can have a dig? Two years back we nearly went out of business, yet here we are, newly promoted and negotiating the recruitment of a player widely regarded as one of the best goalkeeping prospects in Scandinavia, yet folk still insist on finding reasons to moan about the manager, the owner and the recruitment team.

Here - we still don't know when he's joining and very much the goal posts are moving. BTW - I'm still not clear ... is it 2 games plus Chesterfield in the Cup or 3 league games and he can play against Chesterfield? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SparxTheRam Posted August 8 Share Posted August 8 What I don't understand is why everyone has an inmate need to know every last detail..... If this hadn't got out (by the selling club) and we just signed him on the 16th August or even the 31st August for 1.4m and with his record/skills everyone would be happy as Larry. So, just have a bit of patience and wait, transfers happen like this all the time, we all know that Derby have a history of having signings in and done in the building weeks before they are announced sometimes (in the summer). Vickers is perfectly capable for a couple of games and we get the keeper when we get him. If Derby and Warne feel like he's the best option then it's worth the wait. IMO the only thing to be annoyed at here is that the club haven't just come out and said, yep were signing him, yep it's agree, yes he's staying until they've qualified or whatever it is. No one moans when clubs sign a player then loan him our, or sign a pre contract agreement for the summer.... It's all a gamble, it's all a risk that something happens in the meantime, when Derby signed Asanovic he went off with Croatia to play in the Euros should we have said oooooh no you can't do that??

Allen Posted August 8 Share Posted August 8 When Derby sold Max Bird to Bristol City, I would imagine it was insisted by Derby that the deal would only happen if Max was allowed to return to us on loan for the remainder of the season. I”d suggest the odds of Max getting injured would have been significantly higher than Zetterstrom. Leicester Ram, Chester40 and jono 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
