I remember when he signed, reading people acting like it was a good idea was similar to reading people justifying the Bolasie signing the year before. If you just looked at his goal total from the previous two seasons without digging any further, I guess you could be optimistic, but it was shocking that anybody who'd ever seen him play for Ajax could come away thinking he had any chance of success in the Premier League (kind of how I felt about Funes Mori, having seen him play about 20 times before he signed). Just an absolutely unimpressive player. One paced, not particularly strong, big, quick, technically gifted, nor creative. Always looked like a slightly taller Tom Cleverley to me, except that they paid a "we expect you to be a regular starter"-level transfer fee for him.
