I love the way the fans all bowl-down the gangway in excitement at the goal. The Holte won't know what's hit it.

The last thing that hit the Holte like that and came from midfield was a Tonev 50 yard shot.

Looking at some of his youtube stuff, stumbled on this:



Not so much for his finish, but the whole move, what a cracking goal.

He's going to come here, start expecting to do that funky pass and move shit in our midfield and see the rest of our midfield stood staring like this:



We re-signing NRC?

Checked him out on that most reliable of scouting websites, Wikipedia, and he's already a Villa player and wears number 5 for us apparently.
I always follow transfers on Wiki, much more fun than Sky.
I ran his name through anagrammer, as you do with any new signing.

£9m too. Spending the Benteke money already or new owners?

Urgent replacement for Delph.

Or neither. Probably the usual 20 million or so lerner gives a new manager.

Urgent replacement for Delph? I had no idea that we had sold him, that the Bournemouth game was upon us or that they even play in the same position.

This guy was supposed to be Schniederlins replacement for Southampton in the event he's sold. If he is half as good as that bloke, then the quality of our midfield will take a sinificant leap forwards.

Watched the one match comp of him on Youtube (vs Everton in the EL, so no worrying about quality of opposition) and he looks handy enough: can run with the ball, eager with the pressing, some nice passes. WhoScored has him at 3.1 tackles and 2.8 interceptions a game, so you'd think he would be just fine as a ball winner. 63 passes per game at 86.4%, which is a cut better than Sanchez's numbers.

9 million is getting away from being a bargain, but he looks a good 'un. There's always the case of wondering if the speed of thought translate to English football though.

Lets hope that he is better than the last 2 midfield players that we brought off French clubs!

Is he right- or left-footed?

If this is true it will be nice to spend a decent amount of money on a player. Although I hope it doesn't signify the departure of Delph or Benteke.

our track record with French players isn't good; the lad looks the buisness but so did Makoun
