His distribution was woeful yesterday

I'm curious why no other club apparently came in for him whilst we were monitoring him for 12 months plus.

the obvious answer without sounding like a moaner is he isn't very good.

Worrying to hear, hopefully just not quite at the races yet. High hopes he fits in well after all the waiting for his signature!

his distibution i said, aimless crosses in abundance, virtually everyone going out of play, early days i know but the team for me look like they have gones backwards and that to say the least is scary

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.

I hope you're right, IMO, JT & Diomansy Kamara were the best two wide players we've had in recent times.

I was asking because having players available to pass to has been a bit of an issue in recent years and leads to people hitting hopeful balls through not having any options......anyway early days as you say.

I still think we needed to keep Sess and also brought Phillips in if we were going to strengthen, for me we are in exactly the same position, if not worse

He was linked but has not signed, when he joins another club it will be posted in the ex-players thread

I am far from convinced at the moment, does not look like a Premier League winger, but he has to be given time to settle and grow into the team. You can already feel that people are getting frustrated with him though when he puts a poor cross in or fails to beat a man.

I always liked what I saw of him in the past. However alarm bells starting ringing for me the fact that we've chased him for 18 months and in that time no other club has made a move or shown any interest. I think like all of our wingers under Pulis they are massively restricted in what they are allowed to do. On Saturday he spent more time at RB than he did further up field.

Thought he looked good against Palace and went past Townsend and Soares like they weren't there at one point in the second half.

Against Everton he looked very subdued, didn't go last night.

Early days yet hopefully we see more Palace like, than Everton like, performances.
