18 Appearances 7 goals and 5 assists from a midfielder sounds good.

The stats suggest a Frank Lampard type midfielder which is just what we need.

Came through the Barcelona youth system so would assume he would be comfortable in a team that likes to keep hold of the ball. Transfermkt have him valued at 2m which would be an absolute steal, his contract with Twente expires at the end of the season.

We've had nothing but joy buying from the Dutch league. Why stop now?

For more context he's available on a free next summer so any fee we would pay would be peanuts in the grand scheme of things. Looks like decent player and a very low risk transfer given the circumstances, I say get him in.

I long for the days when players were called Denis, Kenny, Frank...and Smith, Brown or Johnson. I can no long pronounce or remember most players in the PL, my brain’s simply not wired to. Indeed, half the time I’m not even sure it’s a person, a place or a medical condition. #Panini80

We do need a Frank Lampard type but this lad is a right sided winger.

Had due diligence been carried out correctly, everybody else would have seen his WAG and this thread would have been sticky.

My mistake I took him to be a midfielder best suited to the right side but not an actual wide man winger type as in Knockaert or AJ.

For more than 20 years I have fondly been hoping we'd singe the imaginary Mexican ingénue, Juan Tanamera. But I digress.

Are you at the resort yet?

Hi HWT. Just arrived, having a drink at the hotel, then off to the ski rental shop shortly. The skiers dream of several days fresh snow, now sunny. Stunning scenery. I’d post a pic but my ipad and iphone never seem able to upload a pic to NSC .... too much data.
