  • Sounds like we've signed Vydra from Derby. Don't know a huge amount about him but sounds like what we need, offers a bit of pace and trickery and was Championship top scorer last season.

    Of the Championship top scorers in the past 3 seasons, we own two of them and sold the other one last year.

  • He'll fit in well if played in a support role to the main striker. Not a creative number 10, but he'll chase flick ons and balls played over the back of the defence. A lot of his goals last season were penalties.

    He's one of the most gifted finishers we've had at Derby in many years and he will shoot with either foot rather than some players who need to shift the ball onto the only foot they feel comfortable shooting with.

    He will hopefully be a good signing for you. He deserves to have another go at the EPL and the consensus around Derby fans was that he would possibly struggle to find a role if we are to continue playing the way we have in pre-season in a 4-3-3.

  • He's going to be screwed with us, we didn't get a single penalty in the league last year.

    Sounds like what we need, we've three big strikers but no-one to really run beyond them. Main issue will probably be who he plays up front with, I can't see him working too well with Wood who was our record signing and leading scorer and tended to start when fit.
