    Trying dam hard not too over hype the lad too much but he reminds me so much of a young Essien from his Lyon days.

    His off-the-ball work was good yesterday but aside from the crackin finish for his goal he wasn't deserving of the MOTM imo :50:

    Rate him highly though he's hardly done anything wrong in any games he's played :shamrock:

    Is he left or right footed? Despite the number of games he's played now ive yet to notice if he preferes his left or right :97: like the Holy Goalie he played for us for years and it wasnt clear what his preferance was either although he hit a penalty with his right he took goal kicks with his left mostly.

    IMO he was the best man on the park. Too many of our guys under performed but Wanyama was class.

    He's right footed, Artur was reasonably comfortable with his left but he was definitely right as well.

    Got to disagree mate don't know if you were at the game but seeing it in the flesh he wasn't anything special - goal aside - his passing was especially slack. Not saying he was *... just wasn't MOTM imo. :50:

    I think your right, though to be fair, no-one played particularly well. His passing is still a little suspect and he can get caught dwelling, but... he has got good recovery and will track back to make tackles and yesterday that was what was required. It wasnt a match for pretty football, we needed to work and battle.

    I think he is fitting into the enforcer role pretty well. His improvement from the start of the season, when at times he looked out of his depth ( imo! ) has been pretty good.

    Now looks like he is gonna be a big part of the squad.

    I can only remember him giving the ball away a couple of times. Once in the first half and he had the ball back within a couple of seconds.

    I have been looking for this song since the GB started singing the Wanyama tune, knew i had heard it somewhere and couldnt mind the name of it. I thought it was used as one of the euro theme tunes but i can't seem to find it.

    Quality. Wouldn't be surprised if the GB picked up on this at the next game :icon_mrgreen:

    Its getting to the point where he could be the main man in midfield and if Kayal goes who cares,which he probably will do sooner rather than later.
