First of all he's the same age as Veliz, who isn't out on loan. If Orban can get minutes, why can't Scarlett?
Orban is a punt, I'd rather we give one of our own who cost nothing a try first.
There's genuine logic to this....
Shut up and educate yourself accordingly then.
NO. THEY. DIDN'T.
You haven't even read the links that YOU posted properly.
The police weren't swayed and there was no jury.
Be less ignorant.
Gift Orban feels like the kind of signing where our fanbase has clamoured for a player and the club actually seem interested too.
I'm going to try to put out of my mind that Ndombele was a similar case.

Is that a joke? Orban scored 15 goals in 16 matches in Belgium last season, Scarlett scored 4 goals in 34 games in League 1, they're not in the same stage of development at all.
Orban is 100% a punt and we have already taken one on Veliz. I dont get why so many people are clamoring for Orban anyway... its the fucking Belgian league for fucks sake.
I'm not saying we should buy him but we did go out and buy Woodgate who was found guilty of affray in a racist attack against an Asian student.
And Vincent Janssen scored 27 in the Eredivisie
Because in today's market for 28m the potential is worth the price?
I do think anyone who is thinking that Richy isn't the striker this year is off though.
He's a backup at best until proven otherwise
Not when we have Veliz and Scarlett
Will Orban possibly be at ACON in Jan/Feb along with Bissouma and Sara?
I hope the post I'm about to make is thrown back in my face in years to come, but:
We have Scarlett the same way we had CCV under Poch. He's not a PL player in my opinion.
And Luis Suarez scored 17, that's why it's a punt. If we knew he was guarnteed to be a world class goalscorer he'd cost 100m.
That's Belgium league is not the prem, he's still a punt and still going to be third striker if he comes here. Why can't we just wait and see how Scarlett works out first? We bought Veliz he's not going out on loan.
The Belgian league is still better than League 1, we've been beaten by a number of Belgian clubs over the last decade. Orban will probably be the second striker, Veliz will be given time to adjust and then probably be sent on loan.
That's almost as simplistic in approach in doubting Postecoglou because he has never manged in a top league.
Or wondering why we were after a South Korean defender from the Chinese League or a Georgian footballer.
Orbans goalscoring record, regardless of league, is impressive but his profile suits Ange perfectly. Great movement, ability to get his shots off quickly, great shift in his body to create that space. Basically, three things that Richarlison doesn't excel in.
There's a reason Orban gets rave reviews, yet someone like Onuachu, who dominated that league, didn't. It's because he's a good footballer.
I don't for a single second think we'll be keeping Scarlett at the club this summer. Once Orban signs, he's going out on loan. Hopefully a good one this time where he can show he can score goals at men's level.
Same. Although it’s more in hope than expectation.
Don’t even mind if it’s a wide player as opposed to an out and out 9. Would just be wonderful to sign one of those players where you think ‘shit, he’s brilliant’.
Inject a bit of excitement into the team.
I should add that I have zero clue who that player would be.
You wouldn't be saying that if the cunt went out to a nightclub next weekend, coaxed your sister back to a hotel and then raped her.
