AjcW Posted 30 August 2022 Share Posted 30 August 2022 Shows where we are when i'm this excited about fitness... he's missed about 8 minutes of football in the last 4 or so years (suspensions aside) 127 games in Belgium and France and he's played 11,422 of 11,430 available minutes! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NasPb Posted 30 August 2022 Share Posted 30 August 2022 Good player, but i swear To God i thought he was in his thirties. Not the youngest but has potential to improve. Looks like he's a 45 year old European hippy though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post TrickyTrevLeftPeg Posted 30 August 2022 Popular Post Share Posted 30 August 2022 This forum is absolutely ridiculous sometimes. New player linked. We know we are in a bit of trouble financially and won't be operating in big expensive markets but So called 'fans' instantly write these players off before they've even signed or kicked a ball is just poor. Additionally stats are shown but they are relative to how that particular team plays and does not show the true indication of player actions. For example where it was on the pitch, what it led to, if it was made in defensive third, middle third or even attacking third. It helps guide decision making but it's not the be all and end all. I'm just saying if we do end up signing him. Give the lad a chance. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Babylon Posted 30 August 2022 Popular Post Share Posted 30 August 2022 (edited) Ok, looking at a lot of fan comments they seem very glowing about him actually. A really top professional, a warrior, defensive shield, aggressive, physical. Edited 30 August 2022 by Babylon 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Finnegan Posted 30 August 2022 Popular Post Share Posted 30 August 2022 Can't understand the negativity tbh. This is way more consistent with our best recruitment than some of the shit we've done recently. Significant part here is we're poaching someone's first choice player whose career is on the up. Much better than buying someone's rejects and cast offs which is an ugly Evertonesque pattern we've come far too close to imitating recently. 17 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Babylon Posted 30 August 2022 Popular Post Share Posted 30 August 2022 (edited) I like the sound of him, body on the line, take no shit physical defender, blocking at all costs type player. Sounds very much like what we thought Cags was when he was good after Maguire went. Sort of player you want when you’re in the trenches for a scrap, like we might be this season.
