Just by chance I got chatting to an FC Bruge fan on a train on Saturday. He only had good things to say about our new striker, he is strong, runs all day and causes any defence problems. He said that he was sorry that Thiago was leaving the club but believed that he would adjust to the EPL quickly. Good to hear....
I remember saying more or less the same thing word for word to a Colchester fan I met on a train. About Keith Bowen. It worked a treat.

Been in Brugge for the last 4 days and not seen a single Brugge shirt being worn, was hoping to get some opinions from some who have watched him. Not that it will change the fact that he'll be lining up for us very soon.

Quietly getting excited about this one. And prospect of a fully fit squad has me salivating.
I’m looking forward to it!

I bet there’s a lot of posts on the GPG bemoaning [insert favourite player name here] deserves to be starting, though!

And why shouldn't there be, Wissa deserves to be given a chance until Thiago proves to be better, he has to make a step up to PL first.

As I understand only academy players can wear numbers above a specific number, possibly 40? Which is why TAA can wear 66 for Liverpool

Hadn't realised this, so had a quick look on the great website below. Seems like there are a few players with squad numbers in the 40s (e.g. Declan Rice kept 41 when he moved from West Ham to Arsenal) but only academy graduates over 50. Rico Lewis seems to have the highest at 82.

Igor wore 18 at Cruzeiro and 9 at Ludogorets. The former's available at Brentford...

Why leave a gap for 26, but not for 12 and 18?

What kind of media content are we getting today then?

The benchmark has been set anyway - When we signed Ogbene, there was a behind-the-scenes video of his early days with us. He was in a hotel and brushing his teeth, whilst being interviewed / recorded. Incredible footage.

More of the same please!

Please, God, let IT2 be the real deal for us. If nothing else he carries himself like a leader and has style. Now if he can actually play in the Premier League...

And while you're at it, please let Rico, Hickey, and Schade all be healthy and ready to play. I can't wait for August 18!

Looks like he doesn't feel confident to do a long interview in English which is fair enough.
It's nice to hear SW speaking English as well, as opposed to "yeah well obviously you're over the moon to to've signed for the club, took some time getting it over the line, was obviously a no-brainer to come here and you must be buzzing obviously and can't wait to get going?!".

Something about Thiago's smile says we're going to love this guy.

Came across really well, hopefully with Bryan we will win the best beard league. Perhaps we need to bring in another Brazilian or Portuguese player to keep him company!!

New song for Kevin Schade then and probably have to buy a new shirt for my Grandson as he has Schade 9 !!!
