This kid looks like a special talent.

A young American in the championship performing well. Would appear to tick all the boxes.

Daryl Dike is a Tyke
If he was at BFC he'd a a Claret, like

He's at BFC but not BFC
Confusing I know, but bear with me

He was meant to join us but the FA got confused.
It was 1059pm.on deadline day and Dyche wasn't amused.

So there is in Yorkshire instead,
Not in Claret, but a Barnsley red

He’s got a lot of Akinbyi about him. Saw him last season for Orlando and physically he just overpowered defenders. It’s pronounced Dee-Kay

He just looks perfect for our system. Ticks all the boxes for me

Can someone please ask him to do a few keepie-uppies on our AI scouting app then.

Mmmm... unfortunately, we rarely pick up anyone that’s been identified on here....

And when we don’t, no doubt if he ends up at Leeds or somewhere and has a half decent season, there will be the usual “told you we should have gone for him” posts.

Interesting that he's only on loan and could be recalled.

According to Wiki, there is a $20m option to buy with a 20% sell on added.

Would be a solid investment $20m

have we actually got $20m to spend on new players - let alone on a forward, a position where we have 4 players under contract and the position our most promising Academy players also fill

There is a reason that people scouted on here never get picked up by us lads

I for one can't think why.......

If Barnsley don’t go up, there’s a few there who would be great additions

Don’t think there are many better suited players to Dyches system.

I havent seen this lad play but the record transfer fee from the MLS is Almiron for 21 million, next biggest is 14 million so i would be surprised if he was 20 million.

Looks a player to me. A bit raw but very quick, can run with the ball & knows where the net is. Sure AP would welcome an American at the club too!
