The Fellah deal fell through, and we can't afford to loan Bakenga so now he's gone to Molde to win a title instead. Oh how the mighty have fallen, eh?

Everybody is signing a striker! Except RBK though, but they don't need one.

We're signing Deshorn Brown and was presented the opportunity to sign Milan Baros.

Milan. Baros.

We signed a winger yesterday, which is nice, but the squad is crying out for a striker and central defender. Our only striker is Sørloth jr. and he's only on loan. I know the club is looking everywhere for a striker, but so is everyone else. And like everyone else, we don't want to spend anything either. This could be a strange season.

Yeah, these are strange times. Also worth mentioning that Odd are clinging to a 41-year old striker.

On a brighter note: the new Norway kit is beautiful. I love kits with a sash on the front and the new crest is just awesome. Shame we only get to show it off in qualifiers

Hey! Dane checking into the thread!
As an FC København fan, I'm always happy to see Rosenborg struggle. Og the joy.
When is the league starting up again? I'm excited to see how Sandefjord's keeper Jakob Busk(loaned out from FC København) will do!

He will build a castle with garden on an island called Cheshire, and he is permitted to breed.
League starts up just after easter on April 6th

Sandefjord will be playing against Bodø Glimt, so just ask euroboy for a report on Jacob Busk.

Tippeligaen is suddenly being filled with talent.
Stabæk signed Yassine El Ghanassy and RBK is rumoured to get Liam Henderson from Celtic on loan.

Looking forward to the 6. now.

That Stabæk deal is just about crazy enough that I might believe there's something in the Henderson rumors.. I guess we'll know soon enough.

Looked to see if I could find anything about Henderson going to Rosenburg and found

Talk in the Record that a loan agreement with Rosenburg is being discussed, with Ronnie's blessing, although the injury to Biton could scupper it.
Shortly followed by

Talk on twitter was that this is based on a made up tweet on Celtic Rumours which the Daily Rebel ran with.

How are Strømsgodset getting on since Deila left ?

For the love of the game
They still got plenty of talent in their squad(even after Ødegaard left) but imo Nielsen(the new manager) isn't getting nearly the same output that Deila did. Seems they're well aware that they were punching above their weight when they won the title though and are building long-term rather than overspending to challenge Molde. Definitely gonna be 'up there' this season.

So Liam Henderson actually joined Rosenborg today on a loan deal that lasts until summer. Can't say I understand it, but alright.

Also: 6 more days to go!

Guess Molde is back on the hunt for a replacement for the replacement with Bakenga out for 6-9 months.

The transfer window and training matches has been horrible for us and I'm afraid we'll go down. At best we'll end up a few points above the drop. Our defense is worse than last year and we don't have Ibba to bail us out anymore.

I enjoyed this for putting RBK third and also for putting Barrantes in every video thumbnail, a good post.

E: We're definitely coming third or fourth, above VIF, though.

Bit uglier than predicted, oh well. Had to go that way with Matland at back (somehow manages to be even more useless than Latifu) and that midfield, still.

That wasn't at all pretty, but it's a good start. The back four looked REALLY iffy at times and we were very lucky that Godset's forwards were even worse.
