Anyone know owt about him?

Just looking at his goalscoring stats in the Champ and they don't exactly blow me away

Wasn't he on loan at Swansea when Cooper managed them? One of those signings which isn't particularly exciting on the face of it, but neither was Keinan Davis and he's been excellent since joining us.

Hhhhhmmmmmmmm.

If Cooper hadn't have had him on loan I'd be shocked at this one.

Has barely featured at all for Stoke so £2m seems a bit steep.

In Coops we trust (I hope).

Know nothing about this guy, price seems high though. Would prefer we spent that on Wallace and blooded Larsson or Dale Taylor.

This is a bit out of nowhere but Cooper obviously knows what he's getting so let's see what he brings to us.

Interestingly Stoke only wanted to loan him out at first, and we've upped the anti with a decent cash offer.

Hope I'm wrong but he's looked decidedly average whenever I've seen him and his scoring record isn't great.

WhoScored.com states weakness as finishing and that he has no strengths. Hopefully just due to limited data for whatever algorithm they use but odd that he's barely played for Stoke considering their issues up front.

John Robertson
A new name for me. A quick look shows he has come through at Bournemouth and, although through numerous loans his goalscoring record isn't anything of note, Stoke saw fit to throw in £5.5 mil for him.

The fact this is obviously one Cooper has head hunted gives me hope though.

He's not played a lot recently but his numbers look quite decent when you consider minutes played.

7635 mins (equivalent of 85 full 90's), 40 goals, 14 assists.

£2m seems like a snip for a young English striker…(normally all three of those those things come at a ‘premium’.)
Didn’t we spend the same amount on a 34-year old striker not too long ago?

Paid £2m a piece for both Murphy and Da Costa. £2m for Surridge doesn't seem bad at all when you put it like that.

Where have these stats come from? I can’t see anything suggesting he has scored anywhere near that amount
