Terrible terrible player. Looks like a Sunday morning lad having a go.

He had a shocking game, but calling him a terrible player after 5/6 games in a new league is ridiculous.
I called it after 2 games. I've seen enough to know he won't make it . Not even close.

Well you can't have seen enough, because no one has. He might or might not make it, but no one can know after two or five games.

Whilst you're correct to say that it's too early to say for definite, I'd have that that by now there would have been some glimpse of talent. I can't remember any positives from Ayew so far. His touch is woeful

He has scored some class goals. That doesn't mean he'll make it but it does mean he's got more than what we've seen so far

I'd definitely have kozak ahead of him though

He's been crap so far.  He might not stay crap, but he shouldn't be in the squad at the moment.

To be honest he started his first couple of games badly, which is hardly uncommon and he's thrown on today in a game which the tide had already turned. He's clearly trying to hard, but you don't get to play in any major European league, let alone score goals, without a better touch than he's displayed so far. He might not make it, but no one can know yet.

Swansea certainly seem to have got the better end of the deal.

Looking at his record, I'm struggling to see what made him worth £10m.  12 goals in 31 games for Lorient last season is decent but not spectacular, but before that he's done hardly anything.

Probably wasn't anywhere near £10m , wasn't it "undisclosed" ?

To be honest, it doesn't seem like he's trying at all.

For the fee we paid.. he really doesn't look up for it. I don't know if it's his mannerisms or general poor play but I don't see much promise with this purchase. I have a feeling he's going to work out similar to CNZ.

I'd like to know what his key attributes are. So far all I know is he's rather partial to playing offside, and not on the pitch.

Des he doesn't even look like a footballer.
More like a boy band member playing in a charity match type player.

If he's not careful Gabby will clobber him.
