roonst83 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 He’s possibly our most important player. He’s a great link between defence and attack, has a great footballing brain, a great eye for a pass, has great delivery and is tough as nails. He reminds me of a young Paul Scholes. And he helps provide another threat other than Grealish. His pressing is insane. Massive player for us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skruff Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 He has a very good overview of players around him. Sometimes he'd send of a pass, that looks sloppy, and with out a target. But it magically pass two three opposition players to land in a villa players feet. Anyone else noticed this? You're sure it's a missplaced pass, but oh no, its a good one! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 At one point tonight two of their players were playing head tennis and Mcginn still challenged both of them in the air. Not sure how that is possible, but he did it Think he may have won a free kick too. He is all action, and it has to be said, is a better footballer can spot and has a better pass on him than Hourihane. He is a level above. £3m-£4m. **** me. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osmark86 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 This guy is the real deal. What a fantastic signing this is shaping up to be. Plays with heart and has bags of skill. Love him more than his mother already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M_Afro Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 We lost it in the second half when he and Whelan, who both played really well, tired. Bruce should have freshened it up then. I really like this guy. He is what we have needed for so long. Needs to play alongside Bjarneson in my mind though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest av1 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 The has a awful lot of ability, but his work rate is outstanding. I have absolutely no doubt that this kid will be a PL player next season, whether it's with or without us. Like Jack, the kkd is simply to good to spend to much time in this league.

KJT123 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 (edited) Can he take penalties? If so, he's basically a clone of Milner. I like Hourihane, but this guy is different class. Edited August 22, 2018 by KJT123 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dounavilla Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 I'm sure no one has said it so far but he's a class above his mother who I love very much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheStagMan Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that come the end of the season I think he will be a better player and more sought after than Grealish. Amazing purchase. Unbelievable price tag! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 He is Gavin Mccann with a cheat card for increased stats of 35 percent on every attribute. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hippo Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 How did the ref not see that stamp on him - I saw it from the DE stand, and was convinced a red was coming - actually I think he must have seen it but bottled it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyp102 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Just came to post and seems others are saying the same, but very Milner esque. Even runs in a similar style, not lightning fast but has a burst of acceleration 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ingram85 Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Can’t add anymore that hasn’t already been said. 10/10 tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CosmicVillan Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 I watched him for the first time at tonights game. Very impressed. He seems to know what is going to happen around him before it's happened... like a chess player that can see several moves ahead. But he he also has great desire, an incredible workrate, an ability to close down the opposition and win the ball high up the pitch, and is one of the few players that can pick passes that don't seem very obvious from up in the stands. Best buy since Benteke 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daweii Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 5 minutes ago, alreadyexists said: He’s damn good isn’t he!? Super John McGinn is fantastic. The exciting part is he's only going to improve as we add more quality players around him. Bolasie and El Ghazi to the right and left of him? Grealish just infront? McGinn is going to thrive with this kind of talent around him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobzy Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 Fantastic business bringing this lad in. As our Hibs fans who visited told us, he works his socks off all game long. Coupled with this, he can pass, cross, shoot and tackle better than most in the squad. Real deal. Absolute bargain too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
