Correct - so whilst he shares a similar profile to Chalobah - Chalobah is doing it in a much tougher league, so Agbadou's stats would likely fall when moving to a tougher competition
In the Belgian league this season, he's scored four headed goals direct from set pieces and one other goal in his 21 appearances. Starting to convince myself this would be a good signing.

Was thinking he should win more in the air given his height, but then again he does come up against the likes of Paul Onuachu. Edit: is he really 6'4? Looks shorter
Like with Kalu and Kayembe, it doesn’t have to be considered a bad signing because Mogi is involved. Nice and Brugges are also in for him which would suggest he’s decent. I know there are some options in between but I’d rather take a punt on a young player who is clearly improving at a rapid rate and hope he makes the step up his skillset says he might than sign cloggers like Rose or Vida.
We don't actually know he is involved. Think it was a joke at the start of the thread and people have run with it! He's not listed as his agent.
It's like the guy we were linked with at Huddersfield, insane the progress he's made this season. The same could be said of Spence on loan at Forest, he looked excellent against the Gooners. I've never wanted Vida but this fella looks promising and from what I've read seems solid and decent on the ball.
Not listed as his agent but he is very involved at Eupen. I’d be shocked if he wasn’t involved. Mogi has been an intermediary for us for many deals where he is not officially the agent per Transfermarkt (Sarr, Dennis, Kalu all come to mind).
Don’t quote me on this, but I think Bayat’s brother is the owner of Eupen, or something along those lines
Having watched this video I am sold on this player I had never heard of until 2 minutes ago. I used to think Britos had a wand of a left foot, this lad has an absolute rocket of a right foot.
You seem to have been against every signing we make currently so I guess you will be right at some point.
Genuine question is there anything solid to say Mogi was involved in Sarr and Dennis. Dennis was on his books when he signed for Brugge in 2017. But never seen any other mention. Are you using that to make an assumption and then just stating it as fact?
He looks like he's comfortable kicking a football so it's a yes from me. WTE and Sierralta look like robots fresh from the factory trying to kick a ball for the first time.
Well thats not true is it? I was effusive in my praise of Sissoko. Same with the appointment of Ranieri. I said I thought Dennis would be good. I haven’t been ‘against’ Samir but I don’t think he’s enough of a step-up. I have stated more than once that I’m impressed we managed to get Kamara. I was non-plussed about Tufan. I thought Kucka looked an awful buy. Same with Fletcher. And I have admitted I was totally wrong about Rose because I was in praise of the decision to get him. And I think Kayembe won’t be up to what we need. So it’s nonsense to suggest I’m against all our recent signings because I’ve been happy with 5 of them. But that just doesn’t fit your narrative so it’s easier to make sweeping comments like the one you have instead I guess.
I have no idea if all of the above is correct but it just felt like you were against everybody we sign. Apologies if not correct
I was convinced Belkalem was going to be amazing. Like Stimac was at Derby. Even had his name on my shirt!
For Sarr: https://www.getfootballnewsfrance.c...nelson-mandela-in-surreal-radio-intervention/ For Dennis it was less clear but some forum sleuths found him listed as an intermediary for one of Dennis’ previous moves I believe. You don’t have to formally be a player’s agent to be involved as an intermediary and I think that’s what goes on with a lot of our Mogi moves. Sometimes an agent might be given a mandate by a buying or selling club to complete a deal.
Which is why he transferred Lukebakio to Charleroi and flipped him to us at two times the price a day after.
