Lens?By whom
I think we agreed the fee with Lens and Ajax.. must have just been better for ChubaSo we squeezed another few million out of the deal — can’t argue with that. If it helps us build a squad which has lacked depth and quality for several seasons then it’s not all bad news.
Anyone been to the Amsterdam Arena? I have heard that it's not a great stadium design for atmosphere, and that Feyenoord's Tub is much better.
I always dislike following an overseas "big" club; it feels too much like foreign fans following Liverpool or Man U. However, I'll gladly follow Chuba's progress there.
I think you can we Everton paid £15m for an unproven striker. We should have held out for more.So we squeezed another few million out of the deal — can’t argue with that. If it helps us build a squad which has lacked depth and quality for several seasons then it’s not all bad news.
they play pretty fluid, but they're buying him based on his performances in a deeper position. My brother in-law checked out his youtube clips from last season and said he's exactly what they need.Do you think they will play him in the deeper role he was so successful in last year or as a genuine number 9?
I've been to Amsterdam; it was full and noisy. But my visit was for the derby game against Utrecht.Anyone been to the Amsterdam Arena? I have heard that it's not a great stadium design for atmosphere, and that Feyenoord's Tub is much better.

Really pleased for Chuba. I thought he was as good as anyone in that position last year. When Ten Haag was putting Weghorst there for Man Utd I thought Choobs was 10x the player so really looking forward to watching him in a top class teamthey play pretty fluid, but they're buying him based on his performances in a deeper position.

Chuba’s agent is “Elite Project Group”. They have some big name clients on their books. They must be worth a fortune and must be a nightmare to deal with! At least with Ajax being a big club we should have more chance of getting our bonuses.Lets hope he passes medical else we have a player back and no tranfer kitty. I can see why lens are annoyed with his agent. I thought chuba would be more princpled than to let his agent behave that way.
Nowt on boro fansChubs has this to look forward to....
3rd place and 12pts off the top last season so no guarantee of a titleI am so old (and my brother has lived in the Netherlands since 1973) that I have been to the Feyenoord stadium before it was renovated, and the old Ajax stadium (Stadion de Meer). Memory fading but I am sure I saw Cryuff there, and Edstron playing for PSV v Feyenoord ..... and also when there was zero crowd problems, and the Dutch refered to it as the "English disease".
and good luck to Chuba. Who wouldn't take that opportunity in his position? Champions League place most years, and a Dutch league title. Only one below Harry Kane ..... and he gets to live in the Netherlands . I hope his English is up to it
