Official: Yoan Gouffran signs new contract with Goztepe


Recommended Posts

He was an unsung hero today. Offered plenty of movement and wanted the ball almost on every occasion. He's certainly got pace and it is what ultimately brought about the equaliser. He worked really hard, kept possession well and his tracking back was canny too. Long may this continue.

 

Another bargain it seems :)

I'm so pleased we got this guy, of all the signings this was the one I was probably the most apprehensive about as I knew absolutely nothing about him.

 

His work rate is amazing, he seems an intelligent player and he's always doing what he can for the team.

Really, really impressed me today. The difference on the wing compared to Shola or Cisse is unbelievable. The passing, control, movement, fitness he showed just today has surpassed Shola's cumulative efforts over the course of the season. 

 

A million quid? Fucking hell. :lol:

Glad he's getting recognition, I thought he was really good today. So smart, quick clever passes combined with workrate and movement.

 

When he dragged that shot wide in the first half someone behind me called him 'just another Obertan'. :anguish:

He's already surpassed my expectations, I knew he could play a bit but I didn't expect that he would put in the amount of work he's getting through.

thats the thing, will he keep up that work rate, hope so.

Wow, never seen him before (at Bordeaux)! Impressed me very very much, what a player! Didn't expect him to be half as good. Composed, intelligent, athletic and much more, so allround!

Ah hate these Obertan comparisons man - he's a completely different player. Great match from him!

 

He's very quick and has no hair.

 

That's about it. The Bellamy comparisons are better. That run for the second goal, great intelligence, composure, shot on his weaker foot.

 

On the last two games he has more than earnt his place in the first 11. Can't wait for him to get a goal under his belt.

He was fantastic on the break. He has less natural talent than Obertan but he uses his skill much more effectively. Plus he really puts in the work rate. He seemed to be everywhere today, back defending, breaking forward and used the ball very intelligently when he had it.

He looks a tiny bit like Obertan, that is about the only comparison. Gabby's got one or two useful traits when we're at bare bones, but Gouffran is way ahead. They share one or two attributes; in that they've both got pace and a touch of flair; but each use those similar traits differently. The workrate is worlds apart, as is the general intelligence.

 

Think he's gonna be a really good player for us, got an excellent feeling.
