Saw this on internet today. Surely it's way too soon to be making this sort of judgement, but equally worrying if true:

“Smith is under fire in some quarters of the club for letting Conor Hourihane join Swansea”. Hahaha - what a total load of made up bollocks this article is!

A bit early to judge but I was hoping to see a bit more from him.

Bloody hell give him a chance. I did, I still do think Conor is good enough for the bench, but come on

What an absolute load of horse shite that article is.

FFS give the bloke a break. He’s been here since January in a team that’s underperforming and missing it’s best player.

I’ve always thought he’s a signing for next season when he gets up to PL speed

It’s fucking ridiculous to make any sort of judgement on him at this point.

With the infrastructure in place at the club now, do you really think the issues outlined in this article are likely to have happened?
Certainly doesn't ring true for me.

Everything about Sanson suggests to me that there was an opportunity to get him at a reduced price and the decision was made to buy him ahead of schedule.

I think he has looked ok to be honest - some decent touches and a few errors.

Which is good if so.

He does have a similar build to Conor. Slight, slim, tall but wiry. I just hope he's not going to be a passenger without the ball which is one of Conor's failings.

He's definitely quicker, and appears quite a bit stronger.  Right now, I'd say his performances have been ok.  He's shown some nice touches, but there have been periods where the games have completely passed him by, which is worrying for a CM.  I put that all down to acclimatising to the new league and new players around him.  I've certainly seen enough to think he's got what it takes to play in the Premier League - whether he's a proper asset for a team with one eye on the top 4, the jury is out I guess.

Purslow has said as much in an interview.

He’s French.  This never ends well at the Villa.  Even Didier Six’s early promise wasn’t sustained.  (G Sinstadt c1987).

God knows where that video ended up, sure I had one the one's they'd put the Burnley team on the front of. Can't find it online either, Villaboy has snippets of it.
