Confirmed Signing Jesper Lindstrom

[Aries]

I might be alone here but I don't get much excitement from this.

Always best to wait and see. None of us really know, but ALL of us will be hoping he’s a good signing. Will be fun finding out.

Chill.

They're just waiting for me to be away from a computer for at least an hour with no WiFi to announce.

Everton that!

Sticky this post for when everybody keeps asking how much the buy clause is in 6 months when hes doing BITS.

There's obviously talent there mate, no arguments, but seen plenty of players with that have mediocre careers at best.

Wouldn't be gutted if we brought him in but if you're talking north of say 12-13m then yeah I'd be very very concerned, we paid less than that for Chermiti who imo has similar potential but has three years extra to actually reach it.

All opinion mate, if you take his season at Southampton, he was just under DCL's par on last season and is younger and has more head room to develop and appreicate - thats the risk and we are debating a guarded future based on what we see.

I like him is all, i think hes getting a bit of a raw deal on here, hes a good player and i think hed be of value to us as a player and investment. I can see why we may hold an interest.

For me it's all about how much he'd cost and the wages he'd want

It will be a consideration for sure, but we may be forced into the breach like Beto and Maupay through necessity.

Hope Dyche doesn't give him the Danjuma treatment and he actually utilises the squad properly

Just noticed he 'unfollowed' the RS on Instagram now he's signed, can get on board with that!

Another example of Thelwell not deviating away from players he wants. I like that.

Yeah I love that
Thelwell sees like we all do that we need pace and creativity and he’s been working on it for a couple years (whilst dealing with PSR rubbish)
Pace, dribbling and creativity is exciting

I think the fact that we have an option to purchase tells you that we rate Jasper more highly than Danjuma and therefore, hopefully, Dyche will utilise him.

I might be alone here but I don't get much excitement from this.

Wait until he scores a brace against Salford tomorrow after coming on for the last 10 minutes mate, you'll be windmilling all over the place.

I've been tracking this kid since he was 8 years old where his nickname was the milkman, as he always delivered...the bread.

2 footed, writes with his left hand but paints with his right hand. Can speak Danish, German, Italian, Scouse not English (grew up supporting the rs but that's because his dad's best mate was John Aldridge as they both had a love of pigeons). Great at picking a pass, poetry, physical, physics, P.E, Preston North End, has a shot on him, shot putt champion at his school, wand of a left foot, owns a Harry Potter wand and in his spare time collects garden gnomes whilst he claims his favourite comedian is Jasper Carrott.

All in all I'm 71% certain that by tomorrow afternoon you'll see and agree we've signed probably the greatest footballer since Simon Davies ti wear the famous royal blue jersey.

Inconsiderate announcing this in the middle of our Broja debate!

Welcome Jesper!

lol I wonder if it was our media team telling him to do that
‘Unfollow that lot quick sharp and maybe finish a tweet with KAGS later on lad’
