What a signing. We've pulled another one out the bag. If he's half as good on the left, then it's an upgrade on Chilwell. 

[Webbo]

A good game and a goal on your debut. Must be MOTM.

I can see us signing a LB and him being our main RB, Ricardo will be our winger

I was critical of this signing, I thought it was too cautious, but great debut and goal.  Excellent.  I hope this is the first of many servings of humble pie.

He actually had a better debut than Ricardo! Riccy P struggled in his first 4-5 games before he finally got up to speed with the Premier League and started tearing it apart. That was phenomenal for a first start, it looked like he played there for years. If he can do that on the left, then we are a better team now than last season.

 

For me based on that, I would go and pay 35-40m for Goosens the left sided wing back from Atlanta! Really impressed!

The way he bombs forward you can tell we’ve got him from Atalanta! Fantastic debut

2-3 more signings that hit the ground running like ol' chestnuts and we're gonna win the league

Yeah all we need is a winger and another center back and we will be on our way

Maybe. I'd rather we got a new winger than play Ricardo out of position.

[Hales]

Him and Ricardo 🥰 sign all the Belgium's!🤩

Right.

[Sharpe's Fox]

More interested to see what happens when Ricardo is back. Exciting!

[Dorkingfox]

Three Belgians, from the top team currently in the world, so not bad 

[majaco]

Good addition.  Very impressive today.  Two big signings and a young prospect and we have a great squad.

[Tom12345]

Wow. What a debut. Very happy with him. A big upgrade from Chilwell. When Ricardo is back, our back four could be:

 

Ricardo  Soyuncu  Ndidi/Evans  Castagne

 

Wait ... Ndidi as CB ... seriously we should think about it.  He is a good passer for a CB but too crap as a midfielder.

 

Anyway, with this back four plus Mendy, we won’t need to be as concerned as last season when we can’t get the ball up when pressed.  

 

As per my previous posts, our problem of not being able to get the ball up when pressed (which every team against us started doing in second half of last season) was due to Chilwell and Ndidi. With Chilwell gone and Castagne im, we just need to solve the Ndidi problem. So either he improves his passing and control (he was getting better first half of last season) or he stays as CB! He wasn’t too bad there as a CB other than a few scary back passes during the first half.

Im in love

So cool, knows what he's doing.

 

Seems a natural footballer.

The fact he cost maybe half of what chillwell did shows how stupid the finances in football are.
