Levi Amantchi Signs

He looked useful and did well. Caused more problems than the two starters.

Liked what I saw of him today, quick, a handful and contrary to what Iā€™d read good in the air

Agreed, heā€™ll be a real handful when heā€™s fully fit and up to speed.

Yes forward planning.

ā€œ:see_no_evil::see_no_evil::see_no_evil:ā€ youā€™re replacing our top scorer with a player whoā€™s made 18 appearances, scored 3 goals in cup competitions and someone who canā€™t even get in Bromleyā€™s team.

Considering Trivella have just spent Ā£14,000,000 acquiring another club I donā€™t think itā€™s unreasonable to spend a little bit of money to get a proven striker to get us over the line. Especially when Draper was on the cards.

So yes, itā€™s poor forward planning and while it may come to be a good signing long term, it isnā€™t short term and it isnā€™t what we need here and now.

Hope you now understand ā€œmy pointā€ to your condescending responsešŸ‘šŸ»

Itā€™s still irrelevant, to what happens here.

You say itā€™s irrelevant but itā€™s not. Weā€™d be Trivellaā€™s first promotion. You want to buy more clubs and expand the group you need to demonstrate success. Success makes future acquisitions easier as you can say ā€œlook at X, this is what we doā€ why risk jeopardising your best chance of that?

I thought he lacked conviction, perhaps due to inexperience.
Iā€™m not sure he thought he would score with either the point blank header or the 1 on 1 (back pass).
But heā€™s got presence and he can learn from Matt.

We will be.

Then clearly what you needed was Ā£14 million, for Silkeborg.
But considerably less for Drogheda and Trivela Fc Togo.

Itā€™s easy to sit here and say we will be but no teams promoted after 28 games. The last 3 matches have been dire and our points lead is quickly being eroded.

End of the day, Leviā€™s debut wasnā€™t terrible but heā€™s very raw and thatā€™s not what we need at this moment in time.

Itā€™s not though is it ?

Okay the money may come from investors and what it will generate

But they only have so many resources to commit to Running a football club. Or in this period supporting the club in a CRUCIAL window.

But if the Drogs have just gone full time. Lots of work and youā€™ve got a new Club in Denmark lots of work.

Iā€™m not surprised questions are asked about why we arenā€™t doing whatā€™s needed to get us over the line.

I think you make a fair point mate Levi is one for the future he needs some work he did ok today but I see him as an impact sub for the rest if this season.
If DJ is off the wage bill thereā€™s really no excuse not to bring in a striker whoā€™s experienced at this level and could do a job in League one like Iā€™ve said Ollie Palmer would be a brilliant fit for us but the rumour is heā€™s going to sodding Gillingham surely we would be a more attractive prospect at the moment if we went for him.

Would rather retain DJ than being in Ollie Palmer. Slow pedestrian striker this year.

Wish we could do some bloody coaching and development of DJ and set up to play with him as our main threatā€¦ he is being miss managed Iā€™m sure of it!

Not happening mate I wouldnā€™t be against it but he never plays here Sadler clearly doesnā€™t like him.

I know and I think (and have thought) thatā€™s absurd. Itā€™s actually infuriating especially when you see what he can do!

I feel sorry for him and how he has been treated, broken down and overlookedā€¦ Levi in support with Weir and Adomah overlapping creating crosses = 15+ goals for DJ in the next 19 FACT.

Levi will be a decent Walsall Player IMO.

The club will not spend money on old strikers I doubt. If they are splashing the cash then it will be for investments like Draper.
