Go on then, what do the Sutton fans think of him?

I already think he's shite.

Just one word..

Frustrating

Frustrating as in he has the talent but not the application?

Looked decent in our away game at Sutton last season. Tall, powerful but quick with neat footwork, he got several shots away, one of which was deflected past Loach for their second.

But as Yubep said, he'll probably be shite for us.

Looks a beast, even if he can't play he's got everything you need at this level except the beer gut. Pace and power go a long way in this league even with limited ability.

Frustrating as in he didn't score enough goals, according to their manager on the Sutton website. I imagine Craig Hignett thinks 7 goals and 3 assists last season gives him something to work with. Pools have the midfield to create loads of chances and now we've got two big, strong, pacey attackers. Looking forward to seeing it.

7 goals? Casssidy could only dream of that in a career!

He has loads of talent and if you lucky he could be a great for you. He does have a habit of taking on too many players and losing possession.

sometimes a change of club and manager can give him the application he needs. he,ll end up having the application but lost his talant knowing Pools luck.

Liddle's not a bad shout if we're not going to get Tom White in. He's 33 now but has managed to avoid bad injuries and played over 500 games in Leagues One and Two. Depend what kind of money he's after.

Toure must have something going for him if Brest kept him on until he was 20, they're the equivalent of a solid Championship club. Looks to have been slowly dropping since then but if Hignett can work on rekindling that potential he could be excellent for us. All ifs as usual but you can't sign a certainty on a free and reasonable wages.

Looks to have all the major attributes going by his youtube video. Obviously it only shows his highlights but pace and strength cant be questioned, and seems to have skill, bit of vision, confidence to use both feet, bit of tracking back to his own box too.

If his downside is his application/attitude etc then hopefully Hignett is the man to sort that out, attacking players such as Molyneaux, Kabamba, Thomas etc all seem to to love playing for Hignett. Could be a very good asset if he settles.

from what I've read his attitude on the football pitch is fine. He's just not quite consistent with his end product.

You after laugh though - nobody ever said it wasn't. Monkeybutt took a break from scoring the wimmin's world cup as a totty contest to ask the question and people have been running with the idea ever since

Funny, Gime Toure doesn't sound like the kind of player you'd find in Belarus...oh wait, wrong Brest...

Why do I feel like this guy could become a cult hero here? Probably the player I'm looking most forward to seeing this season

If there's two Brests involved Monkeybutt will want to know more.
