Where have we got these scouts from? I don't think it'll be a coincidence either that they were at both games. Sonck would seem the obvious choice to me as TP mentioned he wants players for now.

Im quite certain we were linked with Sonck when Boskamp was here. So that rules him out, doesn't it ?

My Wrexham supporting mate said Richard Delaet is a cracking player for them (he's injured at present) I said, he would be down at that level

I can't see how a 30-year-old striker would benefit the squad...

I read an article on a Bruges player, Joseph Akpala, the other week. Came across brilliantly, and was bigged up as a very bright star for the future. From what I read he seems as though he's very intelligent, much like Seyi, and articulate.
Also, he's in the Nigerian setup alongside Seyi and was the Belgian Jupiler League's top scorer last term. That said it all seems to fall apart around the fact that he'd only joined Bruges recently!
I also read Belgian player Kevin Mirallas is unhappy at St Ettiene. That's more out of hope for a deal than any sort of belief because he's a fantastic, fantastic player who in fairness could probably do a lot better than us.
St Ettience also have Moustapha Bayal Sall - a 6"5' Senegalese defensive-midfielder. It's nailed on! ;D

"Small striker" or "CB / defensive midfielder". Which could it be?

I think Sonck would be well worth a punt, got a decent goalscoring record in football, but sonck is only 5 foot 8, so something doesn't quite add up......

Ooooh Belgian! I am a quarter belgian, and proud!!! Such good chocolates!
Sonck is weak, I have seen him play for belgium couple years ago, has no presence, thats what we need.

If memory serves me right, Sonck burst onto the scene at Genk and then got a big money move to Ajax but didn't really fit in there.
Since then, he seems to have gone fairly quiet. I think the Marlon Harewood's of this world are more realistic Tony targets.

Not that it particularly means anything, but as well as playing last night, he also started (and scored) for Belgium in the Luxembourg friendly that a Stoke representative was at last week... But he only signed for St Etienne this year which would seem to rule him out as a serious target... And he's only 5' 11" He seems to be able to play on both wings and up front though, so he'd fit the bill. But looks out of our range....
