Another one who's going to have to hit the ground running.
I'd be lying if I said I know anything about him.
This to me is a punt on a player who has struggled to have any impact at Premier league level.
The Chelsea lads I do work for* reckon he looked pretty good every time they saw him play for their lot, and that he never really got much of a fair chance at theirs. Reckon he’s a very good acquisition for us.
(*this is members of their staff. I’m not a brass or anything)
If he’s only as average as Coufal is on the other side then he’ll be fine and I don’t mean average in a derogatory way I mean in Premier League terms
4+1 years seems a lot but i’m not complaining about signing a LB after wanting one for so many years. We haven’t had genuine competition for the position in at least 7 years
:At last a left back. No idea if he's any good but love to know from all you stats people, how many signings have we made since our last left back signing.

Cool, comes with a bit of pedigree I hear. Only Daws not to make an international appearance in the back line up now?
Is he another coup for West ham or maybe an ousting or just slight rumble in the left back position.
Good luck amico, both on the pitch and walking around Stratford will all that ice in ya ears
Really good luck. Welcome to our Foreign Legion. Not many of our group will have a medal shelf like yours. Hit the ground running please, and practise corner taking…..oh and throw ins.
Here's hoping he's the competition and replacement Cresswell needs to improve us.
1 thing I've picked up on, is he's definitely a Cup Footballer. Has played most Cup games and been a winner with Chelsea in the FA Cup, Europa Cup, as well as the Euros with Italy. You'd like to think that would be significant and be valuable experience to bring along with him.
