He's as about as right/one footed as they come from what I've seen of him... How do you equate adequate?...
If he's adequate he could at least pass with his left, maybe even put a cross in?
Still hoping we can sneak in a surprise last minute loan for Onuoha, Sturridge, Van Aanholt, Bendtner or Adam Johnson. Extremely unlikely though. As long as it isn't someone like Macheda or Bridge.
This thread, man
Even though I didn't want Pieters, a Pieters/Santon double signing would've gave us 2LBs, a RB and a CB. Versatility rules.
Like others, I'm still uneasy about a right footer on the left, but is he at least adequate with his left?
Also, I know Macheda is Italian but its a deal between 2 English clubs. Why isn't it mentioned over here? I know our press can be crap but one thing they love is transfer rumours....
A nice piece on how Barcelona's choice to play 6 central midfielders in the Super Cup might indicate a new tactical revolution:

good signing, unless its instead of cissokho. wasn't he some wonderkid a couple of years back, but then something happened and mourinho hated him? did he have a breakdown or something? don't be blinded by his 7 caps or FM profile.
its scary how good he is and it was a pleasure to watch him in person today. his passing range is frightening and his overall performance was magnificent. my MOTM by far. adore the guy
Really impressed with him today. He did more defensively than Danny fucking Simpson did; for a right winger he won a hell of a lot of tackles. Stick with him.
