Could be a good short-term signing to try and get us up. Not sure I'd go much further than that though, he has even more baggage than Lee Hughes had!

[CAVALIER]

Ace centre half

[keeled56]

He could be the final piece in the jigsaw,to fire us into the playoffs and beyond.....UTV!!

We watched a bit of training this morning and saw him. Seems an odd one if we are after a centre half!

[Howjy04]

Saw this on Twitter earlier but thought it was a wind up, thought he was playing in India now

 

Good thing Roberts inner here any more, keep the lad out of corals

 

Exciting signing if it comes off, you don't move to the PL for £5,000,000 without reason

 

He self-excluded himself from betting shops,due to his gambling problems, after he was banned from racing for 10 years not so long ago.As long as sense kicks in eventually......

He's a decent player though... Why not give him a try? Knows where the net is an all

[valiant_593]

Thought he was older than 31 an all!

[Jacko51]

How did he look?

 

They appeared to be doing work on keeping defensive shape so they had a back four up against a group of strikers/midfielders. Chopra was involved but we didn't see much of him and only watched for about 10 minutes because it was cold and muddy!

[Bald Eagle]

Could be an exciting addition, however we still need a centre back as well

[rayzer]

2-1 he doesn't sign.

[1977Valiant]

How did he look?

 

A bit like this...

I bet he can do a job at this level

[tisdeano]

Jacko, Did you notice any other trialists

[TylerB]

He's a goal-scorer. Yes, we need to replace Innis but we also still rely on Pope far too much, and in League One he's pretty average if we're going to be honest as much as we all love the lad. Chopra would score goals for fun at this level IF he's hungry enough at this stage of his career and the likes of Pope, Marshall and O'Connor can create chances for him.
