    He’s referring to him being a right footed left winger

    He's never watched the boy he doesn't know either way if ye can cross a ball with his left foot or not working on assumption heavily here it's bizarre to say the least

    Aye, but imagine how good Messi could have been if he’d played his proper position as a left winger and spent his career whipping crosses into the box? Guardiola and co missed a trick.

    :fear:

    His hatred of the signing is bizarre but his concerns are legitimate in my opinion even if I don’t really share them. He looks very right footed somebody commented from his videos. I think it’ll be a cracking signing.

    There's having concerns but he's absolutely written the boy off which I can't understand for the life of me let's hope he can cross a ball with his left aswell I also think he may be a very good signing

    Isn't that part of Ange's system though with the inverted wingers tucking inside, coming inside on their stronger foot while the advanced full backs can go on the overlap for the reverse pass?

    I feel like this signing is a stop-gap signing from Ange to get through this season.

    A cheap but potentially very effective option but for one season only. I don't have a problem with that type of signing this year to be honest.

    The 2 loans with the options are good for the fact if they do very well we have an option to buy them and it's a set price so it can't be altered if they hit the ground running and get attention from elsewhere

    I’m no tactical genius but it’s the full backs that come inside. They haven’t done that for our last few games though. Abada puts a lot of balls into the box so it’s fair to be concerned with that lack of balance on the left but I’m not worried about it at all.

    I don’t agree with Leone and like I say his complete condemnation of the signing is a bit weird but each to their own.

    edit: apologies anyway, this is the Giak thread.

    .. have I just coined his nickname .. Big Jack :ange:

    This was my first thought aswell this isn't the thread to be speaking about jota at all let's hope the big man can score as many goals for us as he did for venlo last season would be good to get a striker scoring headers again to be fair

    Same, stick to the huns like glue til January, get the Greek on 12ish goals by then, add 3 or 4 and we are in good position.

    welcome big man

    does this mean were gonna play 2 upfront at times ? or is he backup striker ?

    just thought maybe we'll see kyogo play in the hole behind giorgio with a winger either side, sounds good to me

    A 5 year contract hardly screams stop gap.

    Or are you referring to Jota?
