der Berliner 3,744 Posted June 9, 2018 Author Share Posted June 9, 2018 Some quiet whispers (!!!) that we look at Martin Björnbak, a 26-year old centre-half currently with Norwegian side Bodo Glimt. https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/martin-bjornbak/profil/spieler/184794 Exactly the market we should explore ... and these chaps will be well in their pre-season if not league season by now. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rousseau 10,634 Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 Theoretically, exploring the Scandinavian leagues has always sounded appealing. Then again, I'm still burned from Karl Svensson... 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

buster. 5,196 Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 Scandinavians tend to adapt to the UK better and IMO there is better value for money available. It's down to the scouting to pick those who can play a bit before they start playing too well. Then we need an enviroment where more players actually improve. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete 2,499 Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 Looking through the times there have not been a lot of really good defensive centre-back Scandinavians. Most of the real toppers are attacking players. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

trublusince1982 243 Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 Was of the belief our scouting department only scouts uk. Do we use videos and recommendations for those out with these shores? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
