I think that all these signings sound great! Is it worth a bet on us as Champions?

This is great news. Really impressed that we've been able to attract a young player with (a small amount of) Premier League experience.

If someone was with a premier league club, and has made appearances for that club, less than two years ago and he us now playing for a non league club, there is a story we have yet to be told.

One goal in 22 appearances. Not putting a downer on things, but i'll reserve judegment. Obviously good luck to the lad. hope he does brilliantly.

Wow, what a signing - this lad was on the bench for Sunderland last season!!
Looking at the Hartlepool forum, they thought he was pony though. However, he's another year older and wiser and exactly the type of 'gamble' player I'd want to see here, providing he has a sensible salary.

Failed at premier and league level with a poor scoring record. Why is that? Attitude, confidence, work ethic. Let's hope Todd can work out which one as football is littered with examples of players who have 'unbelievable potential' but never make it.

Good find. Sums up exactly what some of us suspected. I hope he 'mans up' in a Spitfire shirt as the national league is equally tough. Good luck Mikael lets hope you can finally do it.

But he did score 22 goals from 61 games for their U21 side. Big change for him coming to us, lots to learn, no doubt, so let's not expect too much of him too soon.

I don't think 22 games at a higher league is enough to judge a player on.
Looks like an exciting signing & hopefully he can deliver at this level.
TBH I'm a bit surprised we haven't gone for an older "been there done that" kind of player who has played games in league 2 and scored goals.
But having had a PL contract for 3 years I'm sure MM still has big ambitions and this could be an amazing signing. Sure we have done all our homework and it is a well calculated gamble.

Mandron scored the goal that knocked Salford out of the FA Cup last season, decent volley at the far post. youtu.be/hpj5Xp8kg58

Think some of you guys are being a bit harsh here, he's come from a Premier League club so he must have considerable talent in him. Given his height and he seemed to find it difficult to play upfront alone, just try and imagine him in tandem with Scott Wilson as our strike force pairing, it certainly wets my lips!! They could run riot against defences with us having wingers and talented midfielders feeding them. We're looking solid all over the pitch and Labrokes 8-1 is looking very very tasty at the moment.
