    I wasn't expecting him to have such a cracking attitude :100:

    Love the big man, hopefully Ange will start him ahead of Kyogo at times, when it suits next season..

    I want about 3 or 4 players like him in terms of attitude added.

    We need more. And his aggressiveness too. Teams * hate it. Could be huge in Europe for us.

    BTW if Kyogo had GG's gamesmanship, he'd be outstanding.

    I know it's part of their culture but there's a time and place for it. GG understands this.

    A big physical centre mid like Gaiko would nearly complete this team, hope to * we can find one.

    Thing I love about this interview is not just what he says, but HOW he says it. Lots saying he was noising up and disrespecting the Huns, but truth was he was just completely matter of fact. Everything he said was calm, thought through and just spoken with cool confidence in everything he was saying... And most importantly, turned out to be spot-on!

    Aye....Big man for me should have started last couple of games. But....can't complain. Kyogo did well today and possibly could have had one more.
    But GG...not had a striker of his menacing physicality since sutton/hartson.

    Another first touch and first class finish today.
    Next season lads....we're going to see the best of all our players and its going to be magic

    Love his commitment, should have started against them and today, just love how he gets stuck in.

    Another player who would run through a brick wall for you.

    Just hope Ange sees what most of us see when he needs to start before Kyogo at times for certain games.

    In fairness to him there was one foul he made just before he came off where he raked the diet in the back of his achilles and then as the diet was rolling around he is over to pat him on the back. I think he might be adapted in his own way.

    Another superbly taken goal today and yet again a one time finish. Remarkable how good he is as a finisher probably the best on the team.

    He knew he did him and was trying to look all sympathetic so he wouldn't get booked. Big Sutton used to do it all the time

    Solbakken ticks those boxes.

    Excellent debut season, Livi game * a lot of us off, but that was just the occassion getting to aome of us, his attitude and workrate is tremendous and his goalscoring aint too shabby either. And hes Greek.

    He reminds me of Diego Costa.

    Just showed my wife a photo of him with his top off and she said if big Matt Riley wasn't available then he would definitely do. Can you imagine the * I would get if I said if a young Debbie Harry wasn't available then Angelina Jolie would do. Women - where would we be without them
