Even if he proves his fitness and scores 2 in every friendly, if the guy is on stupid wages then it's surely going to be out of Bowyer's hands as to whether we keep him. I have zero faith in him being around for our first league game.
He had a mare at a Dulwich Hamlet friendly last time he was here.
He wont be here by the start of the season......either because RD will cash in & sell him for peanuts or the player himself will see what a clusterf**k of a club we have now become & will be off like a shot. I doubt if we'll even see him at Welling.
Club making a relatively big deal of this through their social media channels. I hope it's because there is a genuine expectation that he will be part of our League One squad for 2018/19 and not just an effort to throw us starving dogs of fans a bone of good news.
My gut feeling is he won't be here beyone pre-season. Robinson said similar things about the likes of Cebalos and Igor himself last summer, but they were all off, just the same.
Did he say anything about Igor? I don't remember that (which is not to say it didn't happen).
I remember he was very cautious around Ceballos, and kind of alluded to the fact that he *might* be with us. But despite looking our best player in the friendlies CC was soon gone, presumably because of wages.
He generally spoke about looking at the players that'd been out on loan and he hadn't met yet. Being keen to see what they were like, clean slate etc. etc. To be fair Sarr is still here, but the general point being, and I realise others have already made it, is that just because Bowyer wants to look at him, it doesn't have a huge bearing on if he'll stay or not.
I imagine Sarr only at Charlton as people will not pay the high wages he is reportedly on.
I suspect that Igor is back because Rolly knows he can’t loan him to his other club and leave us picking up most of the wages without the Aussies say so.

I assume you mean STVV. I thought he’d sold the club to the Japanese. He just kept the ground.

RD: "Huh! what is Igor? Huh!"
Really hope we keep him.
It seems certain that Vetokele will be sold, or loaned out again, before the new season begins.

Taylor and vetokele are a vast improvement on what we had last season.
God I miss them 2
Igor and Taylor should be a top six strikforce with Ajose and Grant as back up.
The cake is only so big, of course.
