sonic_bouma Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Welcome Karim... got a sneaky feeling a few pundits and other fans will be talking that this guy is a bit of a find in a few months time.. fingers crossed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattyp_avfc Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Karim El Ahmadi @KarimElAhmadi8 Thank you to the fans of Aston Villa for making me feel welcome. Wonder if this is a real one.... we shall see... doubt it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JulieB Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 One huge bonus is that he speaks English as well, like most Dutch do pretty well since learning it from an early age The Dutch speak better English than most UK Citizens in my experience. Perfect English normally. Welcome KEA (Also a breed of NZ Parrot which is very mischeivous & lives above the snow line) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrackpotForeigner Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Looks a bit like a dodgy used car salesman. Not helped by the galvanised iron poles at the BMH entrance. A blunder by the architect. A couple of nice sandstone pillars are required to give the place a look of permanence and stately respectability. As it is it looks a bit here-today-gone-tomorrow. One for the next SCG meeting (That is to say Supporter's Consultation Group, and NOT Sir Cary Gayhill). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diehardvillan Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 That's not him. I would be very surprised if it is. Set up a few minutes ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattyp_avfc Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 That's not him. I would be very surprised if it is. Set up a few minutes ago. Thought that myself... also has the number 8 in his name.... his number's suposed to be 15! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we can get those awful metal shutters off the Trinity windows it would be a step in the right direction too - they don't half form an unsightly backdrop to the McGregor statue.

dappadan Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 On the first day of transfers Paul Lambert gave to me Karim El Ahmadiiiii Welcome Karim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeaniimacaroon Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Welcome Karim! To be honest I've only seen some highlights videos of him on youtube, but if he can keep it up I'm sure he'll be a good asset in midfield next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HolteEndRob Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 I can see this deal turning out to be one of the bargains of the season. Let's hope so! Welcome, Karim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theboyangel Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Quite strange how there's no quotes from Lambert yet on the OS about this - just hope he was too busy today tying up other deals!!! **EDIT** Just noticed a couple of lines at the bottom of the report on the OS..... :oops: Welcome Karim anyway! Hopefully you'll be as much as an asset as MON's 1st signing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markavfc40 Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Looks a very decent signing for a couple of mill. Welcome Karim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Durrr Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 One thing is for sure about this signing people will pronounce his name wrong for as long as he is here. Some people couldn't pronounce McLeish properly, calling him McCleish. El Ahmadi will definitely be a challenge for some folk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JulieB Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Pronounced something like El Ah-marrdh-i according to Sir Jack's attempt on OS He'd been to BMH & VP before according to his interview to have a look round (while PF was on holiday) - which backs up some of the ITK we'd had.

JulieB Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Talking about magic carpets - Kaboul of Spuds always looks like my perfect idea of the Genie of the Lamp off Aladdin. KEA's nose is bit battered to be in a Sinbad tale! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
