Acheampong

Post by Narwhalchomper » Thu Apr 27, 2017 3:34 pm

Looked a really decent player for anderlecht against Man U. He's got blistering pace, only 23 and has a good engine by the looks of things. Could be an option for the summer??

Sadly doubt any big club will chance it as there are massive question marks over his real age. His ex girlfriend came out and said that he changed his documents and is actually ten years older than he claims to be. Doubt with such question marks over such a thing a club as risk averse as ours would even look into this.

Blistering pace at 33?

Would a 33 year old have blistering pace?

Anderlecht are a pretty big club, playing in the Champions League and Europa League. With the registrations required to play at that level it's highly unlikely that forged documents would go unnoticed.

So you take rumours at face value and think that 2 of the biggest clubs in their countries have been hoodwinked?

Its easily done Up the Beehole. This is why these clubs have such success at signing players from Africa whereas English clubs struggle.....they make it easy for themselves. It works for them as they do usually go on to sell them at huge profits helping to sustain there futures. If you do not believe this sort of thing happens in the nicest possible way I think you need to give your head a bit of a wobble

if we stay up I'd 100% go for Dendonker from Anderlecht, 22 year old defensive midfielder, Belgian international valued around 13 million

Forget Belgian players Vegas, there out of fashion in Burnley ;)

And certainly forget Dendoncker, he's unfortunately way out of our bracket.

I actually suggested Acheampong a number of weeks ago.

valued around 12 million euros, why is he out of our bracket ? Not seeing a huge line of clubs being linked with him to be fair

Has it been reliably reported that he wants away?

no, I was just saying he's a good player that's all - not saying we would or wouldn't get him by any stretch of the imagination !

Besides the financial side of things, we're supposed to have one of the best defensive midfielders, who was captain of Anderlecht with Dendoncker, but who cannot get a look in. How do you suppose we'll manage to get Dendoncker?

not upset mate, just didn't get why you were questioning what I said with something you either think i said or implied. Either way, he's a good player ! Most on here thought we wouldn't get Defour either to be fair
