What a player he was, I was kin devastated when we sold him for 1m

He will start on the bench and work at his fitness levels. should be peaking around mid-September, which is fine.

Same as Iceland last season. Just hope we don't play him when only half fit like we did Iceland.

I’d say he’s about mid to late September before hitting his stride but I spose that could be all the incomings takes time to gel

I'd agree with that time line.

@mezzrow I told you we'd make a Bernie Bro out of you!

Made up. Where's my government cheese?

When we were very first linked with Fonseca I immediately singled out Bernard as one of the players I'd love to follow him to Everton from Shakhtar... turns out we didn't need Fonseca to get him anyway!

Think he's a cracking player, easily the most exciting signing we've made this summer in my opinion.

being rendered from the finest kulak tallow as we speak!

i do enjoy that he even plays on the left... ; )

 

[mezzrow]

He's a little magician alright. Question is, will he have a year like El Mago? If so, look out.

I regret I only have five cows to contribute to the collective. Lead me to my struggle session.

Given that we now have excellent depth for all the positions he plays, it should take the pressure and urgency off and allow him to get up to speed gradually.

 

[Darth Toffeeman]

Normally this sort of signing along with Mina would occur 3 or 4 games into the season, so we are already ahead of schedule of integrating into the side.

Hopefully we can get him up to speed and intensity asap.

a compromise has been reached with the militant vegans: we will liquidate you and your class, but we won't eat you!

in solidarity....

 

[Nymzee]

I'd agree with that time line.

Autumn starts end of September, Dave.
