I'd put it in our top 10 worst ever signings. It's one thing signing a bad player from another club thinking they might be different in your system or under your management, but buying a player who's bad in your system and under your management...
Pointless signing either way. Waste of a loan space and has three years left on his contract so won't be joining us for lower wages. Surely we can do better.
Well we need able bodies for sure, but he doesn't really fit that.
The only good thing he does is he's got a phenomenal first touch, maybe he should've invested time in learning to do the rest of the football thing too.
He'd immediately improve our team but still not a move I'd favour, given they would want a decent fee for him.
If we're going for an ex Villa midfielder let's make it Douglas Luiz.
