Flashes today, but it's strange, it's like he's come from some foreign league where the game is slower. I wonder how much of that is down to how few options we ever give the man in possession.

I wonder how much of that is down to how few options we ever give the man in possession.My take aswell on him.It was a lovely finish and he hit a lovely pass out wide to Cash at some point in second half but he dosen't half lose the ball frequently when in decent positions. Odd given he's played in this country for last 4 years especially in championship where it's far more frenetic.Perhaps we were just spoilt by who he's effectively replaced but get the feeling we've overhyped him a little too much as there were chances to play Ings through today and he overhit the pass on 2-3 occasions.

One goal in three from out wide ain’t a bad start? Just one behind Ings.

Just one behind Ings.I want to see him hitting excellent throughballs for Ings, wasted one presentable chance in first half when he massively overhit it.Was doing it no problem for Teemu Pukki so shouldn't be an issue I hope.
