Mainz is a German city on the Rhine River. It’s known for its old town, with half-timbered houses and medieval market squares. In the center, the Marktbrunnen is a Renaissance fountain with red columns. Nearby, a distinctive octagonal tower tops the Romanesque Mainz Cathedral, built of deep red sandstone. The Gutenberg Museum honors the inventor of the printing press with exhibits, including 2 of his original bibles.
I think Dela will find a walk round Town will be like a home from home.

Looks more likely to appear on the assists list than scoring but if we can find a striker who makes something of his service and he chips in with occasional goals himself then could be a decent signing. As ever, time will tell.

Could imagine him being an alternative to Diarra behind the striker, although i doubt he’d be as good pressing.

That has to be one of the cringiest player reveals we've ever done Our Comms is led by someone who has been at the club for years, every now and then we get some new people who are probably apprentices. why do you think it looks like it hasn't moved on? Comms side of things has been terrible for years. |

Asked to be housed in Leeds so i don't think he'll be found wandering around the Plaza.. |

Don't think he will be the striker some are thinking, We seem to be chasing a main striker as well, Dela prefered position is playing on the left but he seems a better goal threat which we are missing. Do you think he could be abit like Elias Kachunga ? He seems abit mroe skilful than Kachunga but think there is parallels in their goal scoring records before coming to Town. When we got Kachunga I think he had played mainly as a striker and most assumed that was where he was going to be used at Town, his goal scoring record looked abit underwhelming but we used him on the right hand side and look at how well he contributed with assists and especially goals in that first season he was here. Really looking forward to watching him play, think there's alot of potential gain for Town with little risk. |

As ever, time will tell. Agree, it's not just about what he delivers himself but the spin off effect he has on those around him..hopefully he'll enhance the delivery of several others at the top end of the pitch.. |

I suspect this reveal is essentially designed to attract to our younger fans as I believe they like this utube type of thing. As an oldish person I neither like it or dislike it, but it’s worth the club trying something a bit different.

He has a point. As far as I know we never had a song for, arguably, our greatest ever left back in Chris Löwe. Chris Lowe was a decent no 3, let me remind you about the great Ray Wilson & my Grandad's favourite left back Sammy Wadsworth - UTT. Chris Lowe was the quiet pet shop boy |

Just re-read the article announcing his signing, and noticed the language. We've not actually signed him yet (Delano Burgzorg agrees loan from Mainz), the signing is subject to international clearance. I assume it's a formality otherwise we wouldn't have announced it, but anyone know how long this will take?

On the left where we have JK, PJ, JH and Ben Jackson*... Without having seen much of him it's difficult to say but I wonder if the club plan to use him either centrally or on the RHS. * Yes, I know I used the initials for all the others... |

[/b] Might be all we're looking for unless he turns out to be a worldbeater - probable new manager may or may not fancy him ? we've had some decent Surinam lads in the past - Wijnhardt, Gorre, VLP |
