Finally it looks like we have a player that will be on the same wavelength as Jack. A mouth watering prospect watching a midfield trio of Luiz, Jack and SJM.

Conor may struggle to get a game, and I would expect to see the likes of BB and Lansbury being moved on now.

I'm refusing to watch the video until we've got a shirt stretch.

A very wise move (it'll save you repeatedly checking the official site for confirmation and be better for your nerves).

After 1 minute of that video I thought he was horribly one footed, I counted after and got to 12 touches with his left after that point. It's a hellish good right boot tho!

There's a couple of clips showing him play 30-40 yard passes with his left and one where he cracks a fierce shot from about 20 yards with it so he clearly favours his right but the left isn't for standing on.

I appreciate. I saw them too, just seems odd to be so reliant on the one when the other is not half bad. But it is a YouTube video so he may turn out to be a natural lefty 😂

He looks a hell of a player. Fingers crossed.

The Noses make me smile. Anybody else and you'd think it was tongue in cheek, but with these tin foil hat wearing, Vila haters, you know they're being serious:

On the plus side if it’s a proxy loan surely they can’t insert a clause saying he can’t play against them.

Looks like he could easily play as an attacking midfielder if we're chasing a game.
Not that we will be doing that very often...possibly not all ;)
