I liked the bit where he was under pressure with the ball, but seeing space ahead of him he just knocked it up a few yards and then backed himself in the footrace to beat his man. He's going to cause a few teams problems as he progresses.

He's got stacks of potential that's for sure. I'd expect him to have some involvement this season no doubt.

He looks decent, pretty quick and with a good engine. Mind you, I thought that about Guilbert, and look how that turned out.

He was, although i think this lad looks a bit more 'robust' which will be better suited to our league. He's also a bit younger so more time to develop his game.

So we don't think he'll be another of the young lads shipped out on loan to the Baggies, Lesta or one of those other smaller clubs?

I think it’ll depend on if we bring another right back in.

I like the business we've done so far, but we really, really need to be looking at adding attacking players before we sign any more defenders or midfielders, surely?

I think he'd be capable of playing in the senior squad, much like Duran is/was despite his youth. Like others have said though, presuming we keep Cash and if we sign someone else more senior who can play there as well, it's possible he could initially be loaned out so that he gets plenty of game time.

As for priorities for incoming signings i'd say another attacker would be the main priority but then maybe a right sided CB, or preferably someone that can play RCB and RB, like the guy from Feyenoord who can also play in midfield as well. He sounds ideal.

Kosta will be excellent in years to come. What he might need is a bit of the old "slow trigger" wisdom Sir Graham shared with Tony Daley. Otherwise PL defenders will force him into mistakes as he flies down the wing .(bad crosses, pushed wide) and leave us exposed behind. Bags of potential though.

I suppose it does in a situation where we have finite amounts of money to spend - each player bought instead, reduces the size of the pot to fund purchases where we really need to get stronger

Well the post I was replying to was talking abour the number one priority. We don't know how many more players we can or will bring in, so I'd argue if it's only one, then an attacker is more important. If we're still confident of selling Carlos and getting a replacement, then no, it doesn't really. But I'd still rather we had another attacker sooner rather than later with the season opener coming up.

Reminds me of when we had a young Kyle Walker on loan, bags of pace going forward but very naive defensively.

Think we have a potentially great full back if he gets some game time and Unai does his usual in coaching him as he will.
