Rather worryingly, no mention of a hat

Has he landed yet?

Or even like his father. His dad was a hell of a player.

Talksport say £7m
Daily Mail say £8m
Skysports say £12m

What is skys obsession with over inflating all transfer fees? Is it so they can have that stupid totaliser saying Premier league clubs have spent £80b this summer?

I had to interview Peter Reid last week about the Raheem Sterling transfer and he said iit was once routine to exaggerate the amount of money a player cost.

When he was City manager he signed Keith Curle for a million pounds but Peter Swales insisted on telling everyone it was £2.5 million, just to look important.

So having looked on a few international forums, their fans are astonished that we have bought him for that much.

They bought him for 4m euro last year and by all accounts he has been shit. There isn't one positive comment from French fans.

Sounds like that Belgian bloke we bought. He wasn't worth seven million.

Yeah or he could be shit - guess we'll find out

He can't have been that bad if he scored double digits for a poor team

Happy with him as a replacement for weimann. Not for benteke though. Think we need proven calibre

Benteke wasn't proven but we didn't envisage being so reliant on him at the time. We had three other forwards we thought we could depend on

He's not got Benteke's physicality, so we need another of that type. He's a replacement for Weimann.

I wonder will Kozak be seen as the natural Benteke replacement ?

Guy on talksport saying his sources in France saying the bid was never excepted, Lorient want more money, a bid of £8 million was made in staggered payments.

His Youtube video is dire, aren't they supposed to make a player look good?
