If he's as sociopathic as he looks, then this can only be a good thing, as I estimate there are at least 15 fixtures left this season requiring some serious livening up.

Im also suspecting that he may be popular with the ladies in the stands - and its been a while since we've really considered that aspect of our purchases.

All in all a good half a million Euros well spent.

K.URZ13 Surely going to start tomorrow. I'm excited.

What are the eligibility rule for the cup ? If his paperwork has all gone through he'd be fine for a league game but the FA don't have an earlier cut off for registrations do they ?
I'd certainly play him, no reason not to give him the chance to settle in.

Really hoping he’s as mental as he looks, welcome to the club Denniss!

Get the shackles off Rakels! He's like a rotweiler waiting to be set free on Championship defences

I too am hoping he's a raving lunatic at least as you say it will liven, a rather dull season up.

Only because the refs are scared he'll stab them.

he was close to being sent off a few times but he just glared at the ref and made a throat slitting gesture, and the ref backed off

Having now watched some of those YouTube highlights and goals I quite like the cut of his jib. He looks quite calm in front of goal and looks good at finding that yard or two in the box which gets him those tap ins. It's difficult to tell if some of that is down to the standard of defending and goalkeeping though.

I do wonder where he might play. He looks like he's comfortable out wide in those clips, and he seems to be right footed so perhaps he'll find a way into the team on the wing or as part of a front 3 ala Blackman.

Lets hope his unconventional route into the club doesn't hold him back or cause any problems though.

Who can trust youtube/videos when assessing player.

Just look at Cedric Baseya

Actually, I trust HoopBlah on assessing a player - quick feet and quick mind mean he's likelier to adapt.

Having also watched a few You Tube videos, I think he may find the standard of marking a bit higher in the Championship....

3points Shouldn't his song be to the tune of something by Dizzy Rascal?

Some people think we're bonkers
It's not like he was free
We just signed Deniss Rakels
And he's gonna score three
