    One of my in-laws(who is a deportivo fanatic) tells me that he is just as good with the ball at his feet if not better than he is in the air, says he is similiar to samaras, but saying that I dont know how many celtic games he has watched :56:

    No excuse for a single person to show even the slightest bit of negativity. Let's see how he plays, and hopes he's a big success! Welcome aboard Lassad :shamrock:

    Really excited to see how both Lassad and Miku do in their time here. This is the greatest window I've seen from Celtic in quite a while. They have shown real ambition by raiding La Liga and picking out two players who have mixed it with the best in the world. Could make all the difference between European progression and failure.

    i'm well aware of Deportivo's situation as i used to follow them.

    tbh a good Secunda B player can make an impact in the SPL.

    i'm not really that bothered what the Levante fans think of Lassad. i want the opinion of those that have seen a lot of him. i've read up on him too but i wouldn't form an opinion on that alone.

    if he's a sensitive wee soul, he'll need to toughen up if he is to make it at this club.

    i'll wait to see him in the hoops before making an opinion.

    clever of the board to offer him a 2-year deal. if he's a success in his first, he'll get a new one, if he doesn't and we can't move him on, we won't be stuck with him for long. hopefully, it's the former and he pushes Hooper, Stokes, Watt and Miku into better players.

    This. Spanish second tier comfortably a better standard than the SPL and he managed 14 goals in 23 starts. As well as 4 in 3 in the Copa Del Rey.

    In 09/10 and 10/11 he struggled to get regular starts because Deportivo mainly played one up and Adrian was first choice. No real shame in that considering Adrian's went on to score 20+ goals for Atletico last season. Despite that he still had a better goals to minutes ratio than Adrian in La Liga for those two seasons.

    And in 08/09 he finished runner up to Busquets for the Jugador Revelación (<wbr>Breakthrough Player) award despite only being promoted from the B squad in January.

    Probably only seen him 10-15 times whilst Deportivo were in La Liga but much happier with him than I would've been with Owen, Klasnic, Carew or any of the other free strikers that were being brought up (excluding Del Piero ofc).

    Sounds very promising. Still relatively young too, at 26, but experienced enough to teach our other strikers a few things. Very pleased that this has been wrapped up.

    excited about this one too, seen various people describe him as a good target man and Lennon has said himself that he will give us a different dimension upfront. Promising.
