I'm excited by this signing. He looks to have a lot of ability. I hope he's a player who can help us progress, as opposed to being someone who'll use us as a stepping stone.
This is the quality of player we should be going for. I look forward to seeing him and Idrissa playing.

Even if he uses us as a stepping stone, he'll hopefully help us progress. What we need to do is to have a lot more players (than the two we've just lost/are losing) that scum-sucking rich clubs want. We're worried about next season because our only two stand-out players have gone. If we had 5/6/7 of that quality they'd be more tempted to stay as well as not leave such a big hole if a couple went.

All the factors are in place for us to get good players from home or abroad - mega TV money, strength of the pound, attractive league, great club, great support, £40m from sales - we now need to recruit often and well, and not worry so much about them leaving if they come over and tear up the league. If, even while still feeling raw about Benteke especially, we had the chance and foresight to know that we were buying a striker for £7m who we'd get three good seasons out of and £25m profit when he swans off to some wanky other club leaving us all heart-broken, we'd still sign him surely?

Good players and lots of them please, stepping stone or not.

£10 mil seems steep to me
based on what? Luke Shaw after one good season at Southampton cost Man U £30m.
Based on  2 million for Joe Bennett ((cough cough))

Twitter is Twitter

But he does look very two footed, strong, skilful and a threat from set pieces.  A much needed filip.

these new guys are going to need people to get behind them from the off - new environment,  new country new league. It would be daunting for far more experienced players let alone someone of his age. VP needs to roar it's approval of more adventurous signings
