Big fan of taking Akpom on 10:17 - Aug 4 with 832 views | ITFCBlues | Not sure hes good enough for Prem when he can't get in what's been a poor Ajax side! Also not sure where he fits in when we've got Chappers and Szmodics in the 10 role already? |  |

In England he was traditionally a CF but he’s played out wide for Ajax quite a bit in a wide 10 position similar to Broadhead. Would be a good addition. |  | |  |

Loads of experience and I suspect we see chappers go before the window finishes. I think akpom is a decent player who adds loads of experience. He can play up top and in the 10 so offers more than being a super sub right now |  |

Scored all his goals at Boro as a 10 |  |

Just not sure I'm comfortable paying 7m or whatever it is on a 30 year old with only 1 good season under his belt |  |

Nowhere near…. on 10:23 - Aug 4 with 678 views | Bloots | ….a Prem player. His best times were at Boro playing as a 10, usually coming in off the left. He’s not up to it as a CF. I can only assume he’s simply a straight swap for Broadhead. |  |

You don’t think he’ll add experience and value next season too? I can see it being a great addition round the place. Experienced a lot all over Europe, been at big clubs clearly talented - fair enough I just really like him and would be glad to see him here |  |

It’s all Monopoly money now anyway. No point worrying about fees and value because they don’t exist, just have to trust it doesn’t see us do a Leicester or whatever I guess. |  |

….Im not “against” it as a signing, I just think it smacks of a last minute panic to fill a gap. This window just seems a bit disorganised and “slap dash” when we should really have been in a position of cool, calm power. I’ll welcome him with my muscular open arms but quietly wish we had a proper CF and CM in the door. Peace & Love |  |

£7m isn't that much any more, particularly for a well-financed club with a season of Prem earnings and parachute payments to spend. |  |
