I'm glad we've finally got him. Very quick, eye for goal and can cross the ball. By all accounts, he also has a good attitude. For me this was the main position that we were desperately lacking last season. This should be as signing that really gives Rondon the ammo he needs.

At last, welcome to the Baggies Matt!

Been made to wait for this one, now give him gametime TP & don't even think about diving Matt!

Number 10 .......who had that last ?

QPR fans seem glad to see the back of him. Hopefully just sour grapes. Got to be an improvement on seeing Sess or Gardner out there.

It's not been a good squad number since we have been the Premier League. Here's hoping he changes that.

Vic had it last season I'm sure?

The last four:

Victor Anichebe
Yassine El Ghanassy
Ishmael Miller
Andy Johnson

Not much sucess there in the Premier League, fingers crossed on Phillips

Good signing much better then what we currently got

long time coming but welcome Matt. I hope we don't do this with Leko, I know he needs experience but he was a breath of fresh air last season.

Wide range of views on most forums about most players. Think it's a good value signing on the face it - Welcome Matt.

Interesting hearing Bolasie saying Tony Pulis was brilliant for his career at Palace. Knew he'd got ability but Pulis got his fitness to another level & he kicked on from there!
Hopefully do a similar thing with MP.

Take fans opinions with a pinch of salt, I imagine 90% of us will be glad to see the back of Saido, but that doesn't deny he's a good player.

Hopefully we'll be in for Bolasie as he appears to be up for sale.

In the video of him doing his medical, spotted a great motto on the wall of the medical centre/training ground
"It's not about the name on the back of the shirt, it's about the badge on the front"

Should tell that to the England squad!

I was looking at the ones to wear the shirt in the Premier League - Sorry I forgot Sinclair !

Welcome Matty!
Hope you fit in well and kick on! Boing Boing!

I think the big thing he has going for him is that the ball seems to stick to him, so he can be a fantastic "out".

I agree , i suspect he will be more Jerome Thomas for us than say another Sess in the way of going round players. Looking forward to seeing him now he's signed.

His distribution was woeful yesterday
