OK I will bite!
But is it not true then?
A January window signing is an instant impact signing surely! But no ours isn't fit for weeks.
No I'm not.Please please please tell me you're takin the piss
Ronnie Goodlass was talking about this yesterday - basically be patient and let him get fit. If he hasn't played since early Decemeber (winter break?) then it doesn't matter what his fee is, he needs to get match fit or he'll be awful.No I'm not.
Doesn't it concern you that we have shelled out £13.5 million on a player who isn't fit enough to at least get on the bench?
I hope so, as the alternative is to pretend that Tom Cleverly is an attacking left-sided player or that Kone is a winger.Ronnie Goodlass was talking about this yesterday - basically be patient and let him get fit.

Give him time for fitness and he may be brilliant.
If Russia has a winter break, and he hasn't played for two months or so, you could spend £50m on a player and they'd be pants, purely down to fitness.I hope so, as the alternative is to pretend that Tom Cleverly is an attacking left-sided player or that Kone is a winger.

Essentially he needs a mini pre season but apparently he's doing intensive fitness training at FF.
Raw can be good in itself though.By the time we bought him he should have been a couple of weeks into their mid season pre season so to speak including having played a few friendly games mate - as they tend to recommence that around the 12th of January after the Orthodox new year/Chrimbo period is over
I'm of the opinion that seen up close first hand he is 'more raw' ability wise than the manager thought he was now he's left wanting to get him fully fit before he gets him a game, a more technical or finished player i think wouldn't need so much work before getting his début. Lukaku's comments the other day tend to mirror that tbh

At least we didn't have to send him back because we couldn't get a permit lolI like raw steak so i agree
Buy yeah I just want to see him play now and hopefully make all my doubts and misgivings prior to signing him look daft
Are we fuming about this bloke already, before he's even had his name on the team sheet?
Hahahahaha special.
