It's not even June.

Hehheh its our first instinctive reaction whenever a mediocre French player is been scouted out by our mediocre French ex-player.
We fear the worst.

It'll feel like a sideways signing if it does happen.
Probably be a least a season before we'd see whether or not he's really got what it takes to become a top player for us.

Looks a good player from the tube.

I've no time for people who write off players they've never seen. Same lot who criticise cos we never signed Benteke or Michu.

I've read some good stuff about him, but also that he's liable to go missing for large periods. No doubt Wenger will improve him, but at what cost?

Don't think this deal is going to go through at all.

Yep. Looks like he can both spot and time a pass well.

Creative mids are wengers forte. Don't understand the panic.

If you don't watch even UEFA Cup games involving English clubs, then...

I'm surprised anyone would even post in this forum that doesn't.

Sounds like the new Rosicky.

I know you've not seen enough of him to make any sort of decent appraisal, so why bother?

I've seen enough of him to form the same impression that's now coming from every French pundit that's watched him semi-regularly, so why not?

Because i know you've not seen enough of him to make any sort of decent appraisal.

Hear he's good with both feet

How come this is just directed at people writing him off?
Does the same not apply to people recommending him based on five minutes of youtube?

My concern is that the fans who've watched him all season aren't blown away by him or desperate for him to stay.

And I know I've watched more of him than others.

So cheers.

You said you dont now much about him and you've watched Lyon a couple of times this season (presumably against Spurs) and he didn't stand out. And for the record he played a grand total of 95 minutes against Spurs over two legs.

So sorry to say, on the matter of whether he's a good player or not, you have nothing to add. I'm not trying to get on your case or be confrontational, but those are the facts.

Fair enough.
