Looks like a competition winner to me.

We’re having to watch every penny yet still opt to drop 20m on this dude.

Have you noticed how many markers he has when he gets the ball? 2 or 3 most times. He's been here 5 minutes, not match fit by any means, you can see he's blowing out his arse around 60 minutes, I actually think he's doing ok considering. A lot better than Rogers.

I didn't think that much of Rogers in his first few starts but he grew into it. Give the lad time, he's adjusting to everything right now.

This thread is about a particular player.

A player who played in our greatest victory for four months and has been a vital part of our two match unbeaten "invincibles" run.

Don't really understand the comments. He played well first half. He seems very physical, which should bode well. Second half we didn't progress the ball down the right very much and he drifted out of it.

impressed with his work-rate and his willingness to take a player on - we need a player or two like that

His performance last night was inconsistent, to say the least.
I was trying to think of who he reminds me of and then realised early this morning that it is Zaniolo - big, strong and enthusiastic but lacking pace and vision to see a pass. He may get better - he maybe should have been in the 9 role at the start of last night's game - but currently does not look like a top-flight game-changer. I'm happy to be proved wrong.

Whilst I get he is isn't fit enough yet and is struggling with the pace and physicality, I have some doubts about his basic technique. Summed up by a moment in the 2nd where the ball was bouncing in front of him in space, he completely misjudged the bounce and then stood directly underneath the flight of the ball rather than shielding the area where it was then going to bounce, the defender then won the ball easily.

I think he'll come good, but it'll take a bit of time. And he hasn't actually played badly in any of his appearances so far.

There's just something a bit ungainly about his running style that makes him look a tad clumsy.

I'm just not sure where this guy fits in. What's his actual position?

I like him, he’s a worker and that helps.  I’m hoping as his confidence grows so does his technique.

I can understand some of the reservations some have but others have written him off already. Baffling but not surprising.
