He's not a player I've seen too much of before today. He's probably been the best CB on the pitch so far and the crazy thing is he's 19! I can see why we decided to take a chance on him, because if he's this good already he could seriously be a first choice CB for the French national team, and they are world champions.

He’s holding back a bit ..  he is great a suddenly carrying the ball forward ...  and as well as being tall can jump like a salmon ... master stroke getting him in ...

Love these podcasts/comment pieces by "analysts" who have no idea of a certain topic – yet speak about said topic in sombre, knowing tones. 

"..the way Rodgers treated Soyuncy when he first arrived and integrated him very slowly, I can see something similar happening with Fofana..." 

That's brilliant. Bloke doesn't even remember what our central defence pairing was when Soyuncy arrived, nor any understanding of how well it was performing.

Class act. Should have got a CS.

[Ric Flair]

Only plus point tonight IMO, Justin and Castagne played well first half but other than that we were typically toothless. Long season ahead.

[Suzie the Fox]

Excellent debut especially for such a young un. Played really well tonight, really looking forward to seeing more of him. 

[HankMarvin]

Couldn’t ask for much more from a young kid making his debut.

 

shame so many other players underperformed though 

[kristianity77]

This guy is mustard its plain to see he's going to have the same impact as Timmy has.  He must be shocked though about how poor some of the players are in front of him though poor chap.  

[Marshall Cockney Fox]

Only positive to come out of this evening. Looked really good.

[foxes_rule1978]

Shame, he put in an excellent performance and ended up on the losing side. Our defence did well tonight that was the only positive. 

[Daz93]

Bright spark in a lifeless game. His leap is immense and he's so quick to get tight with his man.

 

Him and Soyuncu could become an extremely good partnership.

[Royston.]

Impressive debut overshadowed by a poor team performance and disappointing result.

 

[baldeagle]

Some of is passing was superb 

[cruzFOX]

little Wes is already starting to look like big Wes's replacement! Considering how fresh he is from a completely different league he showed some balls out there with his performance. The confidence for such a young guy. He didn't deserve to lose for all his efforts. Can't wait for this crap injury situation to improve. we need everyone back fully fit and firing on all cylinders. Looking like it will be a strong finish at the end of the season but a struggle for large parts.

[NaijaFox]

My MOTM for us tonight - by a country mile!

 

Recruitment team didn't do badly this summer - Castagne and Fofana were our only standouts last night. Hopefully, Under follows suit.

[Wasyls Pec Deck]

He looked very good indeed. I was salivating on his ability to pass it forward accurately 

[RumbleFox]

Poor day yesterday in general but at least Wes looked promising. Great passing, great technically and seemed a smart player. Such confidence too for a 19 year old making their debut in a foreign league. X

This is what surprised me most. What I'd heard was he wasn't great on the ball, but the guy we signed seems fantastic. Breaking the lines more than any other player on the pitch.

That was the part that really impressed me, although he was just generally really good.  Some of those outlet passes were elite tier.

[whoareyaaa]

the one positive from yesterday was Fofona, what a signing this is.

[rachhere]

Just looks so composed. He will be a great signing for us for sure. 

[Chocolate Teapot]

He looks unbelievable. Worth the wait for him. The bit of defending to shield grealish out wide late on was exceptional.

[Pliskin]

He will only get better with Evans along side him too. Fantastic opportunity for the lad to learn of a professional like Evans.
