ismail-villa Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Let's hope he can provide that link between attack and midfield. With him running at defenders, it could leave some space for Andi (his movement is decent) and Benteke to hopefully score more goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samjp26 Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 (edited) I'm actually excited for this signing now to be honest, seems like the sort of player we need. Also worth noting that he already knows big Phil, Cissokho and Sanchez. Edited January 11, 2015 by samjp26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also worth noting that he already knows big Phil, Cissokho and Sanchez. I agree, seems like exactly the kind of player the squad has been missing for the last 3 years.

KSV Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 He looks like a creative winger.. My only concern is his lack of goals and assists. I hope we bring one or two more. He won't save us on his own. Good starting place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avfctom89 Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Imagine what we could do with 30 million for our team ( although coule wé trust Lambert to utilise it ) , but obviously too us i think benteke is irraplacable and wé must keep hold of him for now Benteke, Westwood, Sanchez, Okore, Guzan (yeah I know he didn't scout him)... pretty impressive spine to me. I'm happy to give him money.Totally agree .. in another post I put if he has been given more than a few million he has been excellent . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samjp26 Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Agree he won't save us on his own but hey I'm all for anybody joining that can put the ball into the box. Sinclair next? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villarocker Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 I hope this wonder kid is creative because looking at his goalscoring record he seems worse than both Weimann and Gabby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCJonah Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Watching his YouTube video. Takes players on and gets to the byline to cross the ball. When was the last time we had someone do that on a regular basis? Be nice to see him and grealish either side of benteke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 The buy back clause has took all the excitement out of it for me why? because if he's any good then valencia will want him back? if he's any good then man city will buy him for their bench...

jackbauer24 Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Feel sorry for the lad before he's even kicked a ball. Not many have heard of him, have seen a heavily cherry picked YouTube video and now he's expected to be the sole player to unlock defences. That's a hell of a weight for a foreign youngster! He probably won't even play much to begin with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 He probably won't even play much to begin with. he'll create a huge buzz when he does come on though, hopefully he and the team will feed off it, could give us a huge lift without actually doing anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
