Confirmed Signing Jean-Philippe Gbamin

[blulouie]

so if he turns out to be good ( have no idea genuinely never seen him play ) we have replaced gana for cheaper and a lot younger player

not bad business.

Not in Gana's league mate.

But we have to trust Brands on this.

not many are in his league for what he does but we don't have to replace Gueye with a new Gueye, We can open different doors in our midfield now.

Totally different players. I think it’s was always going to be a number 6 replacing him. As silva has always gone on about that position. And it will lead to us playing 433 in the future. Gana didn’t sit in front of the back four.

Soon find out , it looks done this.

Based on what i have read about this fella, i think what we may lose in combativeness we gain in passing ability. By all accounts he still has the ability to win the ball back for us, hopefully he's better at keeping it than Gueye was.

He was strongly linked with Arsenal not long ago, which I find strangely reassuring.

 

[evertoniano]

How old is he?

Of course you’re not.

What's that suppose to mean? I don't think he will even be as good as peak Mccarthy let alone Gueye.

 

[Sy-]

Having watched a few vids, he seems to want the ball in the middle, but what he then does with it looks pretty questionable?

Not that I have any reason not to trust Brands I suppose...

The reports linking him with AFC where nonsense, they mentioned him as a CB replacement too.

I didnt mention his position.

I replied to a post that we were replacing Gana with a player that is younger and cheaper plus not bad business.

Gana put fires out all over the show and allowed Gomes a totally free reign.
Just hope this lad can do the same.
As I said ...gorra trust Brands on this.

Agreed. He's got a bit to learn in that 6 role still, but he's got good instincts, good passing range, wins a lot of battles - without kicking people as he's more of a standing tackler, super strong, has a bit of creativity to him, can really dribble when he wants, and will shield the backline and support Gomes. He's not Gana, but he's good and can still get better IMO.

So many opinions for someone that hasn't seen him play.
