100% pass rate with some love 30 yd cross field balls… completely different player to Antonio and having cornet to play with will change our attack

You can see just from that 30 minutes how our attacking midfielders are going to benefit from him. An immaculate touch.

Played one lovely cross field ball that unfortunately Bowen couldn't control or he was away.

Won the ball, found his team's mates, forced a great save from Ederson.

A good cameo.

I expect a goal against Forest.

The sort of player that makes you look forward to the next game, because you want to see more.

I think he'll bring the best out of those around him too.

Imagine him bringing the pace of Bowen and Cornet into play.

I think we will have a mixed to good season. I think we will love Scamacca and Cornet and hopefully Rice, Bowen and Co respond too. Top half but a promise of an even better year after.

Good, that's bloody impressive and will be improve us significantly.

Every thing about this guy, so far, has looked top drawer and his 35 minutes or so yesterday just adds to that

I thought he has a bit of Arnautović about him. Lovely 1st touch and looked like he wouldn't mind a run at a defender either, Particularly liked the fact that he wasn't just ****ing headers on, he was finding a team mate... Hope we don't "misplay" him though and keep going long as i think he will offer us much more than just an outlet.

All in all a nice 30 mins or so and excited to see him again next week!

The real deal. Fully expected what I saw, so wasn't disappointed.

Sooner he gets off the mark the better.

Media team needs to do a tour of his tattoos. That face on his neck freaks me out every time.
