One quote from SHA that I enjoyed:

"This is like swapping a rolls royce for a wheelbarrow"

Yeah, but a wheelbarrow is more use to an agricutural outfit

Jota is an upgrade on both Green and Albert and for a few million quid plus someone who is shite, it's a steal. A good bit of early business.

A bit underwhelming on the face of it - but in Deano we trust.

I'm not sure if he's good enough, but for pure troll factor, us signing their best player is hilarious.

Not excited by Jota. But that’s a good sign as I was over the moon with Micah Richards.

Just as an individual talent he might not be much of a difference-maker, but hopefully as someone who knows the Deano MO he could help grease the wheels in our playing style overall.

Their technically most-gifted player. Deano knows him from his Brentford days and will no doubt be able to get the best out of him. They get 35K a week off their wage bill. We get Gardner, who was never going to be anywhere near our first-team, off our books and bring in a player who at the least will be in the mix for a place in the 18.

All sounds good to me. Low cost and low risk. Squad strengthened.

Looked decent against us last season. Smith knows him, and must rate him as a good character to have in the squad. Better than Adomah.

Jota? If he's better than Green then we've swapped a player we don't use for one that improves us.

We need top starting players but it will be critical to have a solid squad of the right type of players in ability and attitude for what will be tough first season back. Jota isn’t going to get us into the CL but he might contribute in key moments. And it fucks off the noses so win-win
