Are these norwegian signings good enough?

Sun Jan 05, 2014 3:54 pm

Or are we gambling?
could there be an underlying desire from OGS to try and develop his national team and give players form norway a chance here?
I dont doubt he knows a good player.
I think if they are decent young squad players with the passion and workrate to succeed their is no reason anyone with talent cannot progress at this level

We don't know who ole has signed yet.

Ole knows this league better than any of our fans. He will know better than anyone else if they are ready for the prem. I'm sure we will be fine.

I trust ole s judgement over yours

Underwhelming signings if you ask me. You never know though

Daehli is only 18 so will be one for Ole to develop and Eikrem is 23, young and versatile, also handy for him to have a familiar face or 2 around.

I'd doubt they were bought to walk straight in.

Eikrem will most likely be a first teamer. I think that Ole will sign a few more players who are more experienced too....

Give them a chance. He's hardly going to go out and bring guys in he doesnt think are good enough.

Lets wait until any signings are confirmed first.

Why the hell would he sign players to develop his national team?

I'm sure he just wants whats best for Cardiff city!

If they are good enough they are old enough !!!

I trust OGS to know what we need, he's seen what we have and he will know of they are better. I think you are spot on though, one straight in the other for the near future, or when we are under slightly less pressure and further up the table. .....

Daehli is a Norweigan international at the age of 18 already. 2.5m for him is an absolute bargain. Has plenty of time to improve

Eikrem may be a bigger risk but he got signed by a top Dutch club, Ole's judgement should pan out well for us. Exciting times

Re: Are these norwegian signings good enough?

Every signing is a gamble, so why don't we just wait and see?

Marco van Basten is sorry to see Eikrem leave apparently, but the transfer's down to Heerenveen's financial problems.
As for Daehli Iv'e seen a couple of videos of him and I can see why media sources link his style to Luka Modric - very similar style to be fair and he's only 18! Great times ahead :ayatollah:

Matts Daeli has been compared to janezai of man utd, so yes I think he is good enough :lol:

Nice to see a manager using his head, and taking advantage of a club in financial difficultly and taken their best player for a good price. Rather than a manager wasting millions and millions on unproven players (cornelius)

I expect the same level of quick criticism over these 2 as Cornelius has received. Even if they play about 60 minutes in their entire cardiff career.

What being a 'fan' who gets behind the team and encourages them, not being negative and having a pop needlessly?

Ill try to be less positive and more negative in future.
