I'm not worried about the league he's coming from. VVD spent alot of time playing in Netherlands and Scotland.
And Vidic came to Man Utd from the Russian league. We should take more punts like these imo.I'm not worried about the league he's coming from. VVD spent alot of time playing in Netherlands and Scotland.
This is true, but could you argue some of these players are washed up and / or complacent after playing in a far less competitive division?fair - what was interesting was the players he did it to were players of substance including Axel playing at a high level in Germany
Everything really depends on player. For example Edmond Tapsoba in 1,5 year went from making professional debut in Vitoria Guimaraes reserves to being one of the best Bundesliga center back.And Vidic came to Man Utd from the Russian league. We should take more punts like these imo.

If we are going for a left footer then Gabriel at Lille would be perfect.
Lots of perving in that opening sentenceIs it just the big kid in me, but his name sounds a lot like a ladies private parts... The makings of a great song and nickname for him right there. Sign him up! He looks like a beast, and as long as he has decent ball control he should be a good punt. The kind we should go for.

as a Korean, no way come on he didn't even prove anything but around 15m? god damn
Not sure how you're supposed to scout this guy if he's only played his club football in sub-par professional leagues.
Even his international caps are against mainly ropey opposition (check Transfermarkt for details).
If he's coming in to be 4th choice for around £15m, I'd rather we just bought the best young homegrown prospect from the Championship.
That said, perhaps his physical attributes/performance data indicates that he could make the grade, so who knows?
How good is he?
Signing Monster over Gabriel Magalhaes would be a real monstrosity.
