Looking very strong and fast up front.

Can't help but think we needs a defender though.

We should run 'new player bingo':

- Isn't from the area

- Young and untried

- Past it

- Always injured

- Always suspended

- Overweight

- Lightweight

- Looks a previous player who was shit

Then there's that lovely bunch waiting for the first mistake to ambush him and they'll write him off. It gives them a group orgasm allegedly, you can hear them groan seductively when he gets near the ball.

Lets hope he goes on to score a hundred goals for us in his time here.

A proper Thorne-ton.

Why are you using Wikipedia to check his stats? soccerway is far more reliable and has minutes played for a fairer reflection

Think he will be a fantastic signing, young and hungry and will probably score for fun in this league.

Honestly what a shite signing, it's not what we need right now. We need experience in this league and this kid doesn't seem to be able to score and can't see him scoring any in this league.
