    as others have already said a loan out to another spl side would do him the world of good,hes already proved hes a good player and the over zealous nature of his tackling i feel is down to him trying to impress,one thing is for sure he wont get booked as often if hes playing for someone else.

    Thought he steadied the ship a bit for the very short time he was on. Much better option than McCarthy when we need fresh legs imo.

    That press, pace and ability to take the ball on a wee run...but just can't be relied on long term..

    Aye he's not a bad footballer at all. Just lacks awareness and discipline. Hope he does well elsewhere

    we should take the pressure off him and play him with a defensive midfielder rather than it being him, think he has more to offer than just being a DM anyway, i think he could play further forward, i actually thought he looked like a central midfield play maker when he played for the israeli club

    but in all honesty it be a miracle if he had a future with us now with all the midfielders we have

    Said it before but I do think with the right coaching and time he'll become a solid player.

    I just don't see it happening at us however.

    Was hilarious how casual he was.


    Was expecting us to just send Giakoumakis into the corner and he’s doing dummies and playing one twos and running down the wing :giggle1:

    Far better option than McCarthy, not even close between them

    He needs to play at this point in his career - have zero against him. Either loan to a top half side or sell.

    That said, I'd much rather get rid of McCarthy than him.

    It’s been a strange one with Soro, as when Ange came in and he was talking about high tempo, high energy get the ball moving forward football l thought he would have been
    perfectly suited but he has really failed to impress this season.

    I feel there is definitely a player there with him but this stage if we were offered anything close to our money back I would take it. Hopefully one of the US teams come in for around £1.5-2m. I know it’s asking a lot but they did with Klimala who had made even less of an impact and cost double.

    High energy, high tempo yep. Low ability and low intelligence is what's holding him back

    I think these two shouldn't matter. Afterall, a lot of footballers are rash and don't think things through. Easy to see from off the pitch behavior of players in England.

    By intelligence I mean game intelligence the way he constantly gives away fouls in dangerous positions or continues to fly in recklessly after already being booked.

    At times he looks like he's having his own individual competition where he sees what he can giveaway more of; fouls or possession

    Gets a rap for being a walking red card but he's honestly less of a risk than bitton
