Ooooooh, interesting.
I have a Belgian friend who is a massive Antwerp fan (he translates the Royal Antwerp web site content for English fans).
Will interrogate him...

Just seen Michi Frey on twitter on some foreign twitter accounts and it's not the usual ITK knobs.,.
Not a scooby doo about him but he's got his name tattooed on his chest...
Him and Lyndon will get on like a house on fire...

I'm reminded of the Grouch Marx quote: "I refuse to join any club that would have me as a member"
If he accepts an offer from us I don't want him.

Quite an impressive CV and goal ratio over his career.
He's ugly as well like Bobby Zamora which I like in a striker - more likely to put his head where it hurts.

Other than this season, his record is pretty impressive.
Must be pretty decent for Schalke to sign in the first place.
No idea what type of striker he is, other than one that seems to know how to score.
Good to see us being linked with players abroad. Better than seeing Martin, Wells etc.

This intrigues me it will either be a success or a disaster. It’s the unknown name that the likes of Brentford pick up who then delivers and goes on to better things.

Don’t like his highlight reels where he appears to lack movement but I would have to respect the previous clubs he’s played for and still scored goals.
If I could choose between an experienced 29 striker or a 20yr Premiership rookie in our current position i think Frey could be a better fit.

Frey will be another signing that takes forever to get up to speed,hasn't played in 6 months.

The article above describes Frey as being part of FC Antwerp’s B team, it could be said any rookie Premiership loan would probably be similar.

his highlights look promising imo. nothing impressive like mazey dribbles or anything but he's physical and loves to hang around in the box which is something we've sorely lacked.

Ooooooh, interesting. I have a Belgian friend who is a massive Antwerp fan (he translates the Royal Antwerp web site content for English fans). Will interrogate him... Feedback in… Large unit, scores goals. Not a team player, which is why he’s been frozen out by Antwerp, who have been trying to offload him all season. Hard working, intimidating, but clumsy/cumbersome at times. Belgian news saying he’s on his way.

According to Belgian media, seems we’re taking Frey on loan for the rest of the season, paying his full salary - which is apparently expensive in Belgian terms. So much so that his pay demands are too much for a Belgian club who made enquiries, but couldn’t afford his wages.
This is slightly at odds with reports that QPR are talking to him negotiating personal terms - which sounds more like a release and a full time contract.
Anyway, I guess we’ll find out one way or another in the next 5 days or so...
