He played well against Spurs.

I was a little cautious about a young guy coming from the Spanish second tier, but he played with great maturity last night;
a very different brief from the one he had at Wulvs last week.

I like what I've seen so far, pushing forward, making tackles.

Also he was the first player out after the game who actually went over to fans waiting to sign autographs. Plenty of others all cleared off without acknowledging anyone.

He was full of smiles and gave up his time.

I like the look of him but if he has no left foot, why does he so frequently end up thinking about using it? He then has to turn his whole body, a la Cash, and any attacking momentum disappears.

I dunno about that, I think he's pretty two footed. And switching back onto his left makes the defender think twice that he's not always going to go down the line.

I thought he did really well- caveated- (But apart from that, how was the show Mrs Lincoln?) and given he's come from a lower level in a slower league, his energy pleasantly surprised me as well.

They kept trying to show him onto his left foot and he kept skinning them down the line. I think he can use both but kept the defence guessing. Mistake notwithstanding, he did really well again.

He was distraught as we all were with his blind pass which found Salah.  Nice touch by McGinn the way he quickly rushed to console him, very good captaincy was that.  Overall he had a good game.

He near enough got a standing ovation when he came off (subbed) . I'm sure that would have reassured him as well.

Did really well aside from the mistake.  Actually beat his man a few times (we haven't seen that for a while down the right wing)

And good sub management as well, I didn't think he was tiring but UE clearly saw something and Cash gave us a renewed impetus down the right side.

He certainly doesn't seem to be a downgrade on what Cash gives us (even maintaining the same once-per-match brainfart), and hopefully his youth gives us time to mould him into something very good.

Bit of a John Gidman about him.

Looks a really good signing, miles above Kosta so far. Tidy on ball, big mistake aside, and strong. Big pre season ahead to get fitter.

Cash though brought a bit of menace to our defence when he came on, still our best option at RB.

Despite the error he was very good. I think he has huge potential
