Transfer Rumour Ishak Belfodil

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

He'll be a bit like Valencia, full of enthusiasm but gash at hitting the back of the net.

Cult hero in the making.

I personally think Belfodil will be a great addition, if we play 4-4-1-1, with him playing as a CF nodding on balls for Lukaku to run onto, bullying his way past people... you can see why he would be useful...

SORT IT OUT BILL

Obviously I'll give him a chance if/when he signs, but his stats are pretty darn gash.

From what that Liege fan wrote, it sounds as though Walsh has identified him as an Okazaki.

Stats wise he looks on an upward trajectory, 1 in 2 striker last two seasons. The boy will do ok.

Looking at it though it looks like he's been plying his trade against farmers and PE teachers for the past two seasons, so 1 in 2 doesn't look very good when you consider that.

You could well be right there mate !!!

Never heard of him before and never seen him play but the description earlier from the Liege fans (if true) has a fair bit to be positive about.

The most telling bits for me were the fact that he was prepared to take a big step down/backwards and take a youth players wage in order to get himself back on track and the fact that he is a grafter. We often hear on here and across the wider blues community that all we ask is for you to play your heart out when you pull that shirt on.

Interesting times!

Sounds like the perfect partner for Romelu.

Koeman starts him left wing lol

That's a really interesting example actually - and the type of player we are really missing upfront

Ah come on Mike, Belgium is a decent level and in 6 months he's done well for Standard. I'm more hoping than anything that he'll do ok for us, time will tell.

Ahhh so Okazaki is a player then! Glad @orly cleared that up for me - was wondering whether it was some sort of dodgy sexual thing that the good Mr Trump might get up to when tucked up in foreign hotel rooms.

Better than the last Algerian Walsh scouted who also played mostly on the wong, can't remember his name Riyad something
