I smell a cracking, and somewhat impossible, team with a theme developing here.

Stephen Ireland was merely making him feel wanted with his smoking Twitpic.

Think this Moroccan might be a little different, El Ahmadi was born and raised in Holland so he is actually Dutch of Moroccan decent and grew up playing Dutch football and played for their youth national team before switching to the Moroccan national team.

Fingers crossed...

If he can do the behind the leg pass at VP it would be great. Looks like a steal to me.

Now feck all about the lad but great to see we have a manager for the first time in a long while who's thinking outside the box in terms of signings.

Seems he is an energetic central midfielder, we've lacked that in midfield ever since Milner left tbh.

Energy in the middle of the park is much needed, plus he and Herd you would think in tough games would be useful together.

Don't know about a song but the nickname could be Cadbury's KahrimEl.

he's an upgraded version of NRC from what I can see. He can tackle, he'll run around all game being a royal pain, but is neat and tidy and can pass the ball to a teammate having done the hard work. We've been dying for that since Milner and certainly since NRC himself left for Juventus, Napoli, Bayern....Bolton
