Sounds like a 90's house combo.

Looks comfortable and in return we look a lot more balanced with him being there.

Can't argue so far.

Steady right back.

Good on the ball, gets forward.

Yet to be really tested defensively but solid addition so far for a minimal fee.

Just goes to show you don't have to pay a gazillion quid at times to pick up a decent player

Nibling.

Little bit unlucky with the first mistake, poor but more of a true error. Moyes will beat him with an old broom for the second one, horrible decision.

Everything about him is so languid. Never sprints, nothing is ever urgent enough to just do the basics well.

He does the basics absolutely fine, he had a bad game.

Hes crap. We got what we paid for. Hes very very nothingy even before towards shocking efforts. We were promised something a bit special and they gave us the absolute bare minimum
