    At least you’re criticism is constructive rather than just a knee * judgement :giggle1:

    Don't know how anyone can label him mince after the little we've seen so far. He's been neither very good nor very bad. He's mostly played it safe from what I've witnessed. He's made a few mistakes but he's done good things too. Looks quick and is said to have good stamina so we'll just have to wait and see.

    Aye after he got smashed by Agbohnlahor and shat himself.

    He wasn’t even that bad anyway, was a new position for him, * just love to moan on here.

    Far too early to be making bold statements about his ability.

    I was completely taking the * by the way. Can't judge a guy on 30 mins played with an illness.

    Had to edit that because my phone autocorrects 'was' to 'wasn't' for some reason :giggle1:

    I thought he played all last season as wing back? Sure that's what his previous manager said as they were playing a 3-5-2.

    Maybe. I was just going by Transfermarkt which lists him playing LB but they don’t have an option for LWB. Just LM and LW where he played a couple games.

    Not overly impressed so far but again it's far too early to judge. Lots of factors come into this. Settling in, fitness, match sharpness, gelling time and he has had to come off early in both of his appearances.

    He also shown glimpses of promise from what little we have seen of him. Time will tell but give him a chance. Writing him off at this stage is just ridiculous

    Struggles to control a ball and also struggles with basic passing from the little we've seen. Early days though but I'll be looking for drastic improvement, especially if Tierney leaves and he becomes out first choice LB.

    He was running about like a headless chicken last night. Ended up on occasions in the centre forward position when we were getting countered on. Bizarre.

    Personally I saw exactly what I saw against the Bosnians: a rough diamond with a lot to learn and work on but considerable potential, physique and raw talent.

    Some of our best signings started like that: Wanyama, Forster, Bobo Balde...

    Lenny's a good coach, I'm sure this guy will be really good, we just need to be patient.

    His movement off the ball is really good but he does look like he drops his concentration at time. I like him though.

    * sake James 2 games man!

    1 on his first start on a pitch so heavy and waterlogged it was unreal

    2 game slight lapse in concentration but first 90 mins

    3 game off with some sort of bug.

    Give him a few months at least mate :hi5:
