I think he’s brilliant, provides pace, finishing and a certain element of the unknown. I hope we snap him up asap if the £1m quoted is accurate.
A strikeforce of Burgzorg and Radulovic with Healey still to come in sounds so much better than Harratt and Hudlin.

A front 3 of Sorba, Burgzorg and one of Koroma, Radulovic or Healey would be deadly

He had a moment last night when he was not far off edge of box, he had momentum and was going at speed, rolled the ball with feet and was going to leather one which you just know was either going to nestle in the top corner or top tier, but Sunderland lad just got a foot in to block him. Exciting player. I saw that. It’s great to have a player who as soon as he takes possession moves you to the edge of your seat.

Exciting player. Yeah, they broke and nearly scored from it! It was the Nicholls save. He had an easy pass out to the right as an alternative option which would have been a much better choice at that stage of the game. He's exciting and a complete liability in equal measure.

The thing with Burgzorg is that the thing he should do is always a second in the past. It's a bit like watching TV when the sound is slightly out of sync with the picture - the actors lips are moving but not quite at the right time.

He's often streets ahead of the opposition but also often takes on too much or doesn't make the best choice.
If he played more with his head up it should help.

£1m is not a lot in football these days even for us now and he'll make our attack look stacked with everyone back fit Especially when Healey was rumoured to be 2m...... Completely this. Even if they are say both £1m, Burgzorg is massively the better option. Unless Healey should be the central striker and so far has been played out of position.

The best thing about Burgzorg is that we don't know what he's about to do and neither does he. This way the other team hasn't a clue what he's about to do

£1m is a snip. Hope the club have got it all but sorted.

Think that sums him up quite well. He doesnt do 'the thing to do'...which in that instance would have been to play a little side pass to his teammate who was in an excellent position and unmarked...he does the 'Burgzorg thing', which could be getting past the Sunderland defender and lashing it into the net...or it could be losing the ball and setting them on a counterattack from which they nearly equalised. I suppose its what makes him a very exciting player...and a liability at times. Hes probably the greediest player Ive ever seen play for town...hates passing it! But if hes £1m Id bite their hands off.

This way the other team hasn't a clue what he's about to do Before that terrible foul on him against Blackburn he was really starting to prove himself. Great to see him back on the pitch last night. Exciting player. Can be extremely annoying at times but he’s got the X factor imho

Seldom see it these days.

Are we talking about this...teed up for the bit of control of the goal-kick, totally confuses and accelerates away from two Sunderland players, and then is pushed from behind in what is surely a blatant penalty (if the ref hadn't drifted left putting about 3 players in his line of sight) - and then follows up in the next play dropping one guy on his arse dizzy, who trips him, and he gets off the floor and wins the ball against 4 defenders scared to challenge him, and finishes off with a shot on target...or something else??

He's an elite level footballer who plays like he's got a brain injury. We wouldn't have him without this feature.
Fantastic and frustrating in equal measure, he entertains me.

Blooming heck, some of the comments on here are crazy.
I think it would be fair to say DB can be unpredictable, but he’s definitely not brainless or a liability. In fact he’s one of the greatest assets we have and when he’s fit first name on the team sheet for me.
On occasion he does lose the ball, but when he does it’s generally in the final third, not outside his own box. If he was doing that then yes, brand him a liability.

The chance when he was down the left, he had Sorba fairly free in the middle but chose to go it alone. Would possibly have made the last few minutes less stressful for some. He's great to watch but he's not what you'd call a team player.

He caused more chaos and excitement in 10 minutes than ward has all season..
He’s beat 3 or 4 men..
Shot when he should have passed..
Passed when he should have shot..
Stood on ball in penalty area..
Given it away and they nearly scored..
He’s a foookin whirlwind..
A footballing Tasmanian devil..
Love him 😍😍😍😍😍

The thing is with these type of players, with their ability to take on players, speed, power etc, if they were able to make the right decisions more often they wouldn’t be playing with us. You’ve just got to enjoy them actually getting you out of your seat , shake your head when they balls it up and smile and cheer when it comes off.

The most enjoyable 10 mins of a game at the JSS for me ever, was RVLP v Bruno in the game v Brighton. Pure electric excitement and DB7 I’m sure is about to produce the same type of moment for us.
