I could search for it but can't be arsed. 

Said ages ago that Blunderland would be ideal for him. They play good expansive football, have loads of yoof and it's handy for keeping tabs. 

Downside is the liklihood of his family getting hockled on but, other than that....

Is he actually any good? Feel like there's no buzz around him at all.

Absolutely shone at A League level - as a 17 yo. Played well enough to get into the WC squad and got minutes there, including a chance to snatch a draw against Argentina in the dying seconds of the Rd of 16 (beautiful piece of skill to control the ball but fabulous save by Martinez).

 

He has lightning pace and all the skill in the world but needs a lot of coaching and experience yet to make it at EPL level. Needs to go somewhere where he'll actually play. He's being paid a shitload of money (for an 18 yo) so NUFC must rate him.

Champo or league one you would think, if he stays in the UK.

Yeah, most people want him to go to a technical league like Netherlands or Germany, but I'd rather he stayed in England to play in a tough league at pace. He's got pace and technique but needs to learn the fight if he's to make it in the EPL.

 

Mid table Champo would be good, but it needs to be a club where he's likely to be trusted to play decent minutes. You'd think that would be easy for someone who's played at a World Cup but league football has a certain pragmatic reality.

Wonder why Kuol hasn’t featured at all so far in these friendlies?

He got extra time off after playing for Australia in some U23 tournament last month.

Where is he? Saw him post end of June training in Italy and nothing since. Wonder if we're sending him to Serie A or B on loan and just haven't announced it yet? Weird one.

Played a competitive game on 18th June, surely just having an extended break? Been quite a big year for the lad, so wouldn't be a surprise if he had been given more time at home.
