    Getting better and more confident with each game, slotted into the team with absolute ease.

    Honestly, for me, so far he has shown to be similar to Ralston without the end product.

    Tidy enough but I could have strangled him and Abada in the first half every time they turned round and played it back the way.

    I'm saying nothing else after I got burned by Greg Taylor.

    Maybe with more time under Ange and he can improve at likes Taylor has.

    Otherwise he's giving me the vibes of Ralston pre Ange... where there is a fighter and a bit of talent there, just not sure if there is much potential.

    Not sure he's not gonna get toasted in CL groups, but I think he's come in really well; given the step up and very short settling in time he's had. Even if he doesn't improve much from here, he's definitely added to the squad in that area

    Great 10 minutes start of the second half with some really good passing, but that was it for me. Other than that thought he struggled a bit.

    CCV bailed him out a couple of times.

    I thought he was pretty decent yesterday tbh.

    He's different from Jura and Ralston in that when he moves into the middle he plays like an actual midfielder.

    Is his duels won and recoveries no quite impressive for 6 games in?

    Seems quite high..

    Best game for us. Great to see him get further forward. And very effectively too.

    Seen someone call him a no frills but competent as * type player. And I think that's what he is.

    I like him a lot.
