Idah costs peanuts in comparison though

No transfer fee for a start, wages lower than if we went out to buy someone else.

If we were giving him a 5-year deal for him to be our number 1 striker when Pukki leaves, I'd be worried. However, if Pukki goes, I'd fully expect us to be in the market for someone else.

Then a three of new striker, sarge and Idah looks alright at this level. New striker would need to be good though....

Idah pile-on is unfair given he was played out of position the last two games (NCFC) - roedtonowhere, Mar 13, 12:47:56

  - If he comes good enough to get a transfer fee that justified the 5 year contract (NCFC) - Bertie Russell, Mar 13, 13:54:07
    - The alternative though is signing a hugil / drmic type (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Mar 13, 14:35:04

    - yep, and if he works out his contract is ripped up and new improved one is put in place. (n/m) (NCFC) - usacanary, Mar 13, 15:43:27

        I would of thought he wouldn't commit to 5 years without some sign he will play more (NCFC) - Gazzaman, Mar 13, 15:10:03
        
        I don't think there would ever be a promise (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Mar 13, 15:33:09
  - Agree - he's had less leeway because of the expectations that sets (NCFC) - camcan, Mar 13, 13:13:03
