And if it won't translate for you, or your Swahili isn't what it was, goal.com have it.

They should sign up here, they would fit right in.

They think they have a god given right to criticise players from less skilled vehicle reversing continents, really pisses me off!

Any Samatta gets himself in good positions, could easily have 3 in 2 games, thats very encouraging.

If you have not seen the ACR or know somebody who has seen the ACR or nearly saw the ACR or thought you nearly saw the ACR the rules of this forum are very clear. You cannot refer to the ACR.

I just hope Samatta is an African Au Revoir Reverser.

Just watched his post-match interview on Pravda. Very calm, considered responses. Him and Marvelous have such dreamy voices. If Dave ever does audiobooks of his catalogue of Villa books, could he get these two to narrate them rather than some Brummie (no offence)?

[Dr_Pangloss]

Jury's out but I'm fairly impressed by what I've seen so far. His work outside of the box is pretty sharp/ no nonsense, appears to have decent pace and the best thing is that he makes good runs/ gets into good positions pretty consistently. Even against Leicester where he missed two very good chances he demonstrated a good understanding of how to get into space in the box, something that Wesley was comically bad at at times.

Man of the Match today. Excellent hold-up play, vision, strength and distribution. If only our team didn't revolve around one player hogging the ball, he probably would have got on the scoresheet again.

It's going to be a real sickener when we lose him in the summer.

[KRS]

Why would we lose Samatta in the summer regardless of whether we stay up or get relegated?

[hilts_coolerking]

He's had a good start, quite pleased so far.

[baddowvillans]

I thought he was very impressive today.  Always made the defenders work and earned the goal through that.  He makes runs and attacks the ball in a way Wesley just never did as well as holding the ball up well.  You feel as though if he keeps doing that he will get goals in this league.

Samatta looks bloody good. No matter qhat division we are in next year keep him and get rid of wesley.

I think he will score shed loads in the championship he looks like a menacing pest

[Smirker]

Looks very good. Intelligent player and great work ethic. Provide the chances and he will score.

[BoVillan esq]

We have a good player here, seems to have good moves, awareness, looks like a very tidy signing to me.

I'm more concerned with how many goals he will score in the Premier League.
