Clever little body check on the defender to give Bruno the free shot for the 3rd

I genuinely believe he will be a class act for us in time like. He's an intelligent and technically talented player. We just need to find the right combination to maximise his output. He's already pretty much a 1 goal involvement every 2 games player.

Enjoyed his little exchange with Ramsey out on the left which almost forced a chance. Was willing Ramsey to stick it away but was good defending tbf.

 

Thought there was a bit of sublime and a bit of ridiculous in that cameo. He needs to practise that pass across the defensive line on the break; there'll be opportunities to make that pass a lot if he's being brought on against teams chasing games.

We should build the team around him.

 

In theory Wissa, Bruno, Barnes play off him with ease, he's perfect for Hall running the ball and laying it off and receiving the ball long from Schar. Then you have Murphy's delivery onto his head or half turn 

 

That's before what his feet are capable of doing for himself (yes more from the highlight reel pre signing but we've seen glimpses).

 

We just need the system to make that happen

If we are brave and play him just behind Wissa, he will be given much more space and have a bigger impact on our games. It could potentially be the change which might give us a spark to ignite our sluggish season so far.

Tonali sacrificed?

Would make sense to rotate Joe, Tonali, Bruno and Miley for those positions to keep everyone fit and rested.  One of them can swap in for Woltemade when he needs a rest.  Could really use another striker if we're going to play like that though.

This guy was always going to be somewhat of a project (acknowledging the hefty fee we paid) and I’m confident that Eddie will get the best out of him in the next 12 months.

 

The fact that he has 9 goals already is a huge bonus.

Same. He seems like a really nice person and he’s a very unique player. 
 

Howe needs to change the system a bit to consistently get the best out of him, mind.

Him and Thiaw seem to have a really good bonding with their respective families and thus just make them both really good people to have around which Eddie seems to have built at the club. Compare that to  the attitude of the Swedish mousekertool that we previously had, seems heaven and hell between the two.

What a pair of signings those two are, man, both seem like such canny lads as well. Hope they’re here for years to come.

I think he already is a class act.
