I agree with bandiera.
I predict this signing is going to be pretty much like Palacio's. I was against signing Palacio and for the same reason I am against signing Eder too.
Palacio was a good player but not what we needed. Palacio seemed like a signing to try and make CL. Since we didn't make CL, I count Palacio's signing as a failure. What did we gain from signing him? making 8th place? If we had signed a promising youngster, we might've done the same but at least now after few years he would've had a resale value or he could've helped us now make CL and we didn't need to sign another Palacio-like.
These types of players are signed as part of a short term project and if your project fails, means your signing failed. Eder would only be a success if he manages to give us what we signed him for, CL.
