Popular Post jbflcfc Posted 20 September 2023 Popular Post Share Posted 20 September 2023 People who are slating him clearly do not have a very good understanding of football. The kids come from a completely different league, does not speak the language & people think he’s going to be a world beater. Personally thought he had a decent game, few good touches & linked up the play well. Give the lad time, then we can judge him after a decent run of games. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Sideshow Faes Posted 20 September 2023 Share Posted 20 September 2023 Kid needs a chance to acclimatise. He had underwhelmed so far. Thought he was practically invisible. A handful of times I can recall him being involved in about 60 minutes of play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James_lcfc Posted 20 September 2023 Share Posted 20 September 2023 Did OK in possession. Was really impressed with his work rate out of it - You can tell he’s desperate to do well here. I have a feeling he’s going to be a good player for us this season. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noahfence Posted 20 September 2023 Share Posted 20 September 2023 Honestly thought he did okay works hard. won’t judge till I’ve seen more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
South Shire Fox Posted 20 September 2023 Share Posted 20 September 2023 (edited) Early days but really dont see what he offers, not been impressed in the slightest. Lightweight and not particularly quick or a great dribbler. The Ghanaian fella on the other hand looks a real prospect Edited 20 September 2023 by South Shire Fox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Langston Posted 20 September 2023 Share Posted 20 September 2023 Clearly a very good footballer, not as box office as Fatawu but his versaility will definitely come in handy in a 50+ game season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After reading your first sentence I was hoping you were going to give some reasons to reassure me but you then go on to give pretty fundamental serious problems if he's not suited to the league and has language barrier that's getting in the way. He was better tonight, more combative but looks nothing like the attacking wide player I thought he would be at all. Seems like a kind of old style wide midfielder to me. I put his safe performances before tonight down to confidence, hopefully not a mentality from a different league and not understanding those around him, otherwise he and us are f**ked!

STUHILL Posted 20 September 2023 Share Posted 20 September 2023 I was impressed with him, even though I think there is more to come. His work rate and desire are excellent. I also love it when a new player coming into the squad is confident enough to be pointing out instructions. Seems a confident lad and I think he could be a very good signing as the season goes on.

Jaspa Posted 20 September 2023 Share Posted 20 September 2023 Still fresh off the plane. It's hard to judge him fully yet, he looks good, but it's just if he can adapt to The Championship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lgfualol Posted 20 September 2023 Share Posted 20 September 2023 (edited) Was good imo, don't know how often he's played as an 8. Hard to make such an impact when Nacho and Casadei lost the ball almost every time. I think he'd have benefited from playing with Vardy and KDH tonight.

eblair Posted 21 September 2023 Share Posted 21 September 2023 Thought was okay, ref did him no favours. Does look more of an 8 than a winger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UniFox21 Posted 21 September 2023 Share Posted 21 September 2023 Good player, clearly has ability. Just needs time to get used to the pace and physicality of English football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AKCJ Posted 21 September 2023 Share Posted 21 September 2023 Would like to see him drop a bit deeper to dictate play a bit more. Think he needs to release the ball a fraction quicker too. But I like that he can play that technical number 10 role. With Akgun, Casadei, Ndidi, KDH and Praet I think we have 5 players who are all good to great at this level in that number 8 role and the best thing is that they're all completely different to one another. Gives us great options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClaphamFox Posted 21 September 2023 Share Posted 21 September 2023 He did fine last night. Worked really hard and was generally tidy in possession. He's clearly a quality player but he's playing very conservatively at the moment, either because he's been told to or he's still building his confidence. He'll get better.

Agreed, I think he was more than decent. Liverpool is the ultimate test when it comes to playing against a physical, pressing team and he coped pretty well for the most part. It was funny how he got subbed after giving away his first loose pass though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iancognito Posted 27 September 2023 Share Posted 27 September 2023 I think he'll be a good player for us. Right sided version of KDH and can probably do the Winks role if he's injured or banned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
