Signs

Any idea what he's like? Assumes this is a good signing based on the experience of our head of recruitment.

£8m rising to £10m with add-ons. Buy-back (no idea on fee) & sell-on for City. Plays on both wings.

A lot of money on a kid...... Hope he follows hot on the heels of Bazunu, Lavia and Livramento. Welcome aboard nipper.

I'm not sure how much he'll offer this season but he certainly looks like he has plenty of potential

[Saint Matty 76]

Good words. I think he'll have a bigger role than anticipated considering the lack of Gakpo.

Sounds like he's expecting game time.

I think he’ll get it given the 5 subs we can use.

Yeah I'm going to change my mind slightly as he's turning 20 in January, so he ought to be able to contribute. But he does look pretty raw on that video at least

Definitely, he'll take Walcott's spot on the bench and get used. I can see Elyounoussi dropping to the bench for Djenepo and getting much less game time now.

And maitland-Niles and caleta-car. Turkish only deals in FACTS. Miles ahead of the rest at this game. I remember the days when Jimmy d would issue infractions for starting a thread on a subject that there was already one on

this kid sounds really exciting

2 goals in 2 games. Could he be starting to reveal his true capabilities? Let's hope so.

[Patches O Houlihan]

As discussed earlier I think Sam plays best with confidence. He know's he's not great at recovery tackles and tracking back. So if you play a proper LB behind him you give him licence to play his game. Play Bree or KWP behind him and he'll do fine. Play Manning behind him and we'll ship loads of goals down our left, he'll be less willing to just play his game, RM and the fans will get pissed and then he'll stop being a starter again. 

Plus Flynn Downes returning gives everyone confidence that many opposition breakaway attacks will just get nipped in the bud. 

Maybe Smallbone, Fraser and KWP can give him some tips on accurate passes from the byline having passed a defender we might have scored a couple more if he had that skill locked down
