    Not watched this yet but I seen some of his stats from Opta’s pro stats that Sky and that use. And it was similar to Maeda, but lesser.

    So this guy declared for Congo, but isn't good enough to be in their squad? Am I reading that right?

    The Belgian journalist who said he thinks this guy is more suited to defensive midfield rather than on the wing may be right, doesn't look anything like a winger should, night and day difference between himself and Tounekti

    He's never a right winger in a million years. Putting him in a position to fail straight away

    He's not a left winger either, the * not a winger which we all knew when we signed him.

    You could get anyone to do the job he appears to do, accept the ball and pass it back to the full back. Every single time.

    Plenty of people on here wanted him signed - now he is here same people slagging him off - give the lad time and maybe play him in his so called normal position.

    I’d just relax. We have a * of a habit of doing this, it’s infuriating.

    Guys not even played a home game yet. Played possibly the worst two fixtures for different reasons.

    He’s not the type of player to go past people. He’s a give and go, make runs type. Needs time and a couple of home games, even us playing in full flow.

    Looks like he has same problems Engels got… pressure is getting to him. Early days, but his body movement is definitely different from his Antwerp days.

    Looks utter *, another winger who passes the ball back instead of taking a man on.

    Deffo think we have spunked 5 million away.

    I know it’s early days but compare him with the other boy it’s * night and day.

    Not sure it can be a panic buy when we've been "monitoring" him since he was about 12 it feels like :giggle1:

    Tounekti's performance made his look even worse. I hope he can turn it around.

    Early days.

    He's not a right winger anyway. But the difference between how confident he looks instantly compared to Tounetki is stark
