is it a better standard than Lewes play in?
He strikes me as our first 'Insta' footballer.
He's been very astute to team up with a manager who demands more than just skillz.
I can't imagine the fawning someone like Pards would do to Bissouma single-handedly blocking all future development.
Based on money buys better players, miles better.
Have you trapped me now in a clever web of an argument?

Interesting you should say that. Whilst it’s not quite as strong as the English, Spanish, German or Italian leagues, the standard is actually pretty good still.
One area where it does excel is in physicality. It prepares the players very well for English football, you need to be strong/powerful and mobile. I think you can clearly see this in Bissouma who looks a power house and can more than compete physically compared to say AJ, who looks very lightweight, coming from a league where physicality is far less important.
It’s the main reason why English premier league clubs have been so much more successful buying from France than any other nation. You can see this in other players coming from France in recent years like Kante and Guendouzi who are not the biggest but are more than capable of holding their own physically.

From The Guardian...
Learning all the time .... exactly, I said similar in several posts.
Bissouma’s proving to be a very good signing and is only going to get better.

I think he is one of the most exciting talents/prospects we have seen at our Club in a long time. A midfielder who can run with the ball from deep positions.. he still appears to have a lot of development to make, to improve his decision making and ultimately make less mistakes, but in the first half he helped make Huddlestone and Bryson look awful (two very experienced campaigners, albeit not at their best), despite the latter's attempts to wind him up.. His ability to nick the ball back has also been a feature of his influence. He could be our version of Pogba.

He's a special footballer and he's going to be someone we struggle to keep within the next couple of windows. The man is quality and I think he's only going to get better.

All footballers make mistakes in every single game, no matter their age. Bissouma will only get better and make less mistakes if he plays more and is given more opportunities.
