I'd rather have seen someone like Sulliman given a chance to break into the squad this time but I hope he does well anyway.

Depends really if he’s good enough to be a top end Championship centre half now, and that’s better than where Suliman is now, then I’d prefer him to play.

I'd honestly rather we'd left this one for a couple of weeks, that'd have given us the time to look at Suliman and/or Bedeau with experienced players around them.  I have no problems bringing Tuanzebe in if he is better but from what I've seen I'm not sure if he is.

Good signing. This will be his year of coming of age. Neither Suliman or Bedau are any where near. Might be a few mistakes early on but when he realises he’s first choice I reckon he will do well - and legs to boot!

Welcome back Axel.

I was at Craven Cottage last season where he looked immense during the first half. If he can perform like that regularly then he's a very welcome addition, especially under the current financial / Elphick constraints.

Sulliman really isn't ready from what I've seen. Give him another loan and see if he does better than last time

Pacey highly rated centre back is just what we need

He's no more proven at this level than Sulliman is really. If we're gonna rely on a youth player for a championship season then i'd prefer it to be one of ours so we reap the benefits in the long term

As long as he keeps Elphick out of the picture, he'll do for me

I think he could be used in a 3-5-2 or just as one of centre halves and hope he is.

Has more athletic ability than elphick however in some matches in international champions cup was exposed.

I think he's good enough to be part of defence and would have him centre back with cheesie or in a 3 with Jedinak .

I'm pretty confident he's better than Sulliman at this point in time

Sulliman wasnt getting games for Grimsby or whoever it was

Yes, but Grimsby played him as a right-back, FFS!

I just don't think Grimsby was a good fit, he was a panic loan by a manager who ended up being sacked a couple of weeks later.

I'd like to see him get a fair bit of gametime this year, he's played 40odd games for various England age group teams no team in the championship should have someone like that not even getting subs appearances.

From what I've seen I think he'll be a fantastic defender, he reads the game superbly and gets himself into good positions very early which makes it looks easy, that's not something you can see on paper or that catches the eye but if you just watch him for a game or 2 it's pretty obvious to see.
