Yes I did. Did not defend much. However in attack he had his moments in picking out a cross to Richarlison, a cut back that nearly resulted in a goal, a lovely one touch flick that resulted in a good chance and generally when he got the ball he used it well. Stood up to the burly Stoke defenders well and kept possession. One unfortunate moment was when he miscontrolled a lofted pass from Capoue in the box resulting in a Stoke goal kick. Control that and it could have resulted in a very good chance for us. His pace was evident and he may have with some referees won a penalty when his shirt was tugged on in the box as he chased a long pass.

Overall an impressive debut. Maintained his fitness and definitely brought a spark attacking wise. Time will tell if he can improve his stamina, be consistently like this and improve his decision making. As a winger he needs to be prepared to take his fullback on more. He has the tools to do so but often shied away from that. But very pleased to have him.

They seem to rate him highly in that Warford forum. Got them a pen, glad they are winning.

We might get some cash for him after all.

I have sympathy for him as it must have been hard to move that much and trying to prove himself over and over again at different clubs and still hoping to fulfill his Barca dream.

Sell Dembele, who is getting megged by Semedo, sell Coutinho and bring him back.

And install 2 billion euros clause so nobody can snatch him.

He will always suit a smaller side that allows him the freedom to do what he does and can build round that a bit.

Will always look shit at a bigger club as part of a system not designed for him.

Yeah, he's in his right element. A true trailer park kingpin.
