Were rolling into the champions league final with that Prince-Arthur-Vidal midfield
This is a good description.
He used to play all over a field.
Some weird hybrid of a Cm, Cam and a striker.
Running like crazy, fighting a lot, making some bad decisions at times.
Anyway, here is one video of him playing as a false 9 (or something close to it) this season.
He plays with a back turned to a goal more often lately.
He is still quite fast and strong and able to get into shooting positions.
Spoonerism? I missed that.

Weird transfer but I like the guy. Cool dude who had the bad boy image all his life. Maybe he will have some impact.
Read that he's a pretty positive influence in the Locker room and easy to get along with.
6 months isn't a bad deal honestly. Sure it's random but he's a decent addition to the team for the time being.
to say we need alpha males is a fallacy. Iniesta Messi Xavi all have the attitude of an Omega male, but on the pitch, they were terrorists. We need great footballers.
Not so sure it's random. He seems of a similar profile with Luis Suarez. We don't kneed soft guys with no experience as back-ups. We need seasoned players who can bring their experience and take on the role like men. Kevin Prince is pretty much the type of back-up forwards we should sign.
Experienced, but not old old, willing to come without too much hassle, willing to work hard, and still hungry to prove things.
I have twice as much faith in Kevin Boateng to come in from the bench and make a difference, than in Munir or Denis types.
Frankly, I don't know why someone would have an issue with signing an experienced, hard working technical player who is also strong for low money as our back-up. He pretty much ticks all boxes.
