McCormick Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 With Best and Ben Arfa now in contention for the same spot, who gets dropped if this chap enters the picture? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueStar Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 How old is he.. wikipedia says he is 24? he says hes 25? time to check fm. His wikipedia seems to have been translated from French to English by someone who doesn't speak either, I wouldn't put too much faith in it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest axel Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 How old is he.. wikipedia says he is 24? he says hes 25? time to check fm. He's born in 1987 and african. So he's 38. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiresias Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Not trying to rain on anyones parade, but doesn't look like he'll be a worldbeater if he's not set a league on fire by 25. Not saying bad purchase, hopefully prove canny, and I'll trust the scouting considering Cabaye etc, probably be a good purchase, but would he replace Ba or Best right now? We'll see.

Not saying bad purchase, hopefully prove canny, and I'll trust the scouting considering Cabaye etc, probably be a good purchase, but would he replace Ba or Best right now? We'll see. Drogba, Klose, Bierhoff and others weren't exactly 20 when they had their breakthrough. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 If a player is a world beater by 25 we won't be able to sign him anyway. If he's a striker of the quality of Cabaye or Tiote I'll be ecstatic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenham Mag Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Might be an Asprilla type signing and derail our title charge. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 I reckon he'll be our striker version of Tiote. Absolutely fucking mint after arriving with little fanfare and low expectation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely the latter I'd imagine. Even if a deal is agreed, it won't be announced til the window opens. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
