Yh like others have said straight replacement for Johanthon Leko although to me seems to be more of an out and out wide man which although not necessarily a perfect fit for bow's preferred formation I would say something we've been crying out for in recent matches.
good player. Away at Portsmouth last season was brilliant for them and scared me everytime he got on the ball. pleased with this as a replacement for Leko.
I think with the smooth PR operation of ESI that they’d be clever enough to announce the crappiest signing first , so things can only get better
This loan signing sounds like it's a within existing budget direct replacement...... if Leko hadn't been seriously injured and sent back to West Brom, Green wouldn't have been signed at all.
Unless the takeover has been given the green light this is a deal that Gallen has spoken to Duchatelet about as he is still the owner. Agree sounds like a doppelganger for Leko who did well for a 20 year old who couldn't get into the West Brom squad.
strange by preston. reading a bit of their forum they dont have much to say about green as he has barely played which in itself is something they are moaning about.
"The Andre Green signing served its purpose, which was to disguise how truly piss-poor our summer transfer business was."
Perhaps we might see more of a 433 in the coming weeks with him and Doughty either side of Lyle until Bonne returns.
Bowyer likes two mobile strikers, from his quote it’s clear he intends to use him as a striker who can drift out wide and take players on. He’s cleared him to Leko and Grant.
Hopefully like those two he’ll score and create goals for us. Probably a different role to what he’s used to, like Leko he’ll need to adapt to it.

That's not saying much as I had not heard of most of the loanees we got in the summer. Good luck Andre and try an stay fit there's a good lad!
