From the clips he looks like a SJM type player or am I missing something?

He will be a great addition.

Now we just need some more consistency from AEZ, Bert & Trez. Instead of them having 1 decent game in 5

Fans of other clubs are starting to wank over us a bit.

Saying a forward line of Buendia, Grealish and Traore with Watkins up top would make them jizz on the ceiling.

My friend who is a scouse Liverpool fan said that BTW.

I'm excited to see who else we sign this summer and where we go.
I agree. We'll be unplayable, you couldn't double mark all 3. Very real possibility that Ollie will notch up 20+ goals next season.

His link up play with Pukki is really exciting. I think Watkins in particular is going to love playing with him. We've been crying out for someone to play through balls through the centre of the pitch and it looks like Buendia is immediately looking to play that kind of pass as soon as he gets the ball. Great range to his passing as well and not shy about shooting from outside the box (something else we've been lacking in recent seasons).

Fuck me, sensational, beating Arsenal to a £30m+ Argentinian playmaker. Can't wait to read their reactions, bet they're gracious.

Now we've got more Emis than HBO.

My God, just about every thread on that Norwich forum is about this transfer. It's like we've unpedestrianised the city centre.

I imagine a lot of the posters are kids as there is clearly a lack of knowledge on our size and history.  I suppose to be fair we have been a sit sleeping giant for 10 years now and there will be a generation that just doesn’t know that we have always competed with the big 6, just not lately

Creative/attacking midfield is not an area of the pitch many of us have been asking to address which does make me a bit concerned that this is partly an insurance move against Grealish leaving (the journalist Miguel Delaney apparently thinks Jack to Citeh is happening). But hopefully, Jack and Emi can be together in electric dreams for us.

I see it as insurance, but not against Jack leaving, more a lesson learned about how our form dipped when he was unavailable, or off form personally.  This just feels like an attempt to make us less of a one-man creative force.  I think it's a brilliant sign of how the club is run these days.  "This was an issue last season, how do we fix it? Oh, right, well let's get the deal done as quickly as possible with the least amount of fuss imaginable"

What other fans don't yet realise is that we have Chuk, Philogene-Bidace and Barry to weave into the mix as well: a surprise package or two will give our opponents even more to think about.

Great news. This lad is a very good player.  We still need an enforcer in the middle unless Chuck can be that. But it’s great to see us improving an area of the squad that needed a quality addition.
