villa4europe Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 probably the most frustrating player I've ever seen, absolutely no football brain, all that pace yet doesn't run on to the ball...he drops deep and demands it to feet and then tries to run with it, doesn't seem to know what a pass is let alone a 1-2, apart from the Gil goal I can't remember a single decent cross or move from him, I don't think he even knows his own strengths as a player, he just wants to play Wembley singles think my only disappointment is not trying to play him upfront but that's something we might have done behind the scene not fussed about the fee, if anything I'm hoping that it comes out that the 2 deals between us are linked and we've used to bypass having to give barca a penny, even if it is only £4m for him it's still £3m a year off the books in wages 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyp102 Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 Any fee involved or just straight swap? Shame didn't work out here... As said before think he may be weak mentally and this exasperates his injuries Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

penguin Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 He's lightning fast, that's about it, without his pace there is absolutely no chance he'd be a professional footballer. Just stands on the byline, stationary, until he gets the ball and then tries to beat the whole team and smash a ball into the box. He is all about his raw physical attributes, all this talk of his potential is solely based on this, I've seen no evidence he has any kind of footballing intelligence whatsoever. I have no idea what the posters suggesting he could be the next big thing have seen that I haven't. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheStagMan Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 If we end up playing them next season then can I suggest we play Hutton, and have him break Traore in half during the game (looking in his direction should do it). We should keep Hutton on the books, just for this one game in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always from 'Great signing, will do amazing in a Villa shirt' to 'At last, that shit footballer's gone' Its amazing just what can gained......by watching them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xela Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 Has the tools to be a very good player but injuries and a bad attitude held him back here.. plus our shambolic season last year. I would have liked to see him stay but he wanted out, so be it. Interesting to see how he gets on at Boro, their manager is certainly talking him up.

DCJonah Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 Their manager doesn't seem like a coward like Garde so I'm sure he will be used. He has his flaws but I can see him having a very good season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And other than physicality I'm not sure what tools he has? the fact that he came from barca (b) and was a lot of flash (on the 7/8 successful runs he went on) in a very poor season means there are some serious tinted glasses with him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisVillan Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 Not arsed. He make it but I doubt it very much. One thing I know is that he wasn't going to make it here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aranutovic is similar. Adama needs a better environment and a manager who'll give him a run, think Karanka will do that given he'll know him from Spain. I think he'll surprise a fair few and we'll regret we didn't loan him out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zatman Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 a good move for the right club, us signing him was a luxury signing at the wrong time. in the right conditions he will destroy teams with his pace alone and maybe Boro a lot more organised than us to take advantage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hornso Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Probably the most hyped player we've had who contributed as little as 260 minutes, 1 goal and 1 assist. Will be intrigued to see how he goes at Boro and with the rest of his career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
