I'll admit I hadn't really heard much of itten, (except football manager) lol but after a bit of research he actually seems the real deal! Be could be the best out the two to be honest if he can continue his great form over here, we all know there will be service aplenty for him anyway, this signing could be a hidden gem for us and he's at the right age to only get better, but with that comes the vultures.

You're right Daz good form will bring the vultures but playing in Scottish football we need to realise that we need to be selling at a good profit to continue to be able to make good signings. 2 or 3 years with us, scoring a lot of goals, sell for huge profit, job done. that's where we are as a club because of the limitations of finances by playing in Scotland. Vultures coming is a good thing my friend.

Other than Borja, what service?

Hagi and Kent are not going to provide a lot of assists this season, they tend to shoot on sight rather than create chances for others.

That is why Morelos (when in his game) is so important, because he creates a lot of his own chances.

I agree daz, itten could easily end up being the best of the two. What i can definitely say is itten is the better/ more natural goalscorer of the two, although roofe is a quality all round forward. Delighted we signed both though 👍.

Hagi and Kent will both have to up their assists and goals this season, more competition for places now, Roofe is flexible and could easily take a slot off one of them if they drop standards, Aribo is also looking better already and could compete for a 10 slot if he keeps scoring.

Silos I wouldn’t expect Itten to play the Morelos role, I’d expect him to be a part of a 2 up front with wide players such as Kent or even a Jamie Murphy firing balls in, as well as overlapping Tav and Barasic.
He gives us a different dynamic but also watch his play, he can link up well he’s not just a target man.
I suspect Roofe could play along the from 3 with Morelos but Itten potentially more the plan B. Just my opinion.
