[Albion] Georginio Rutter - singed 19/8/24

[Han Solo]

Best player today if we consider first half a part of the game as well.
The consistency in his ball control is on a different level to our other excellent technicians. Give it 6 months and he'll be considered a star player for us.
Feck knows how we're going to fit everyone in when people get back from injuries.

 

[dwayne]

Looks like a very good buy.

 

[Farehamseagull]

BALLER!

And great heart/will to win. What a performance!

 

[Weststander]

I thought he was outstanding today. Creative, a warrior. And imho he played well in other recent PL games.

A nightmare for Spurs today.

Mitoma and Rutter also shone in the first half.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Did wonderfully well to battle to get that cross in for Welbeck for the winner

 

[SkirlieWirlie]

Almost feels like new, young players need time to settle in and find their feet. In a new team. Under a new manager. In a new league, before making judgement... Who'd have thought.

 

[Mustafa II]

Enjoyed watching his post-match interview, the first I've seen of him speaking.

Seems like a nice chap, humble yet positive.

Enjoyed watching him on the pitch today even more. So determined, such great ball control... if he can continue his form in front of goal then he is likely to be a top player and fans favourite.

 

[Reddleman]

He’s been a revelation second half. What impressed me was the determination to get he ball for the winner. Criminal he doesn’t get credited with an assist.

He created that goal, 100%.

 

[Shaktarman]

Wasn’t sure at first but has really convinced me the last few games.

 

[Nobby Cybergoat]

Wonderful performance. A real presence and shows real confidence on the ball

His shirt to lose. It doesn't seem like Joao Pedro is back any time soon, if he were we would have a serious selections dilemma, we'd have to accommodate them both

 

[Farehamseagull]

Out of interest, anyone been on WACCOE this evening?

 

[Napper]

Got something about him this kid
Good song too

 

[BUTTERBALL]

Really like the guy, our best player last week v Chelsea and I thought so again today, that £40m investment is showing early signs of paying dividends.

 

[One Teddy Maybank]

Great player.
Gaining more confidence with every game, one of three in the first half who didn’t deserve to be subbed.

My mate is away travelling so is only able to watch on tv, he’s saying he’s not seen anything about Georginio that’s convinced him yet. I think it goes to show how much more you can appreciate the game in the stadium where you can see the whole game.
The lad is absolutely mustard.

I think some people bring into consideration the price paid. I forget about that aspect, leaving it for the money men.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

Right, I confess I was a tad underwhelmed when the Rutter link first appeared a month or so ago, largely because I had it in my head that he was a failed striker and not one of The RB Leeds' best players.

But I've watched a lot of videos today and there's an awful lot to like about him if you think of him as an attacking midfielder. He's incredibly tricksy, quick, strong, has a great eye for a pass, and occasionally finishes well despite missing a few chances. He seems extremely popular with The RB Leeds fans and from what I've seen, he appears to be exactly the sort of lively personality you need around the dressing room. There can be no doubt the Albion have run the numbers on him and concluded that he's a really good fit for our game, rather than just looking at his goal output as some clubs would, so I'm converted. He's only 22: our job is to get the best out of him and make him a full France international.

The fact that his imminent departure has left so many The RB Leeds fans wailing and will also inevitably result in their only remaining star player, Willy Gnonto, demanding to leave like he did last summer is just a bonus.

Go on Georgi! I love him already

100% other than replays and close-ups, you miss so much in terms of positioning and movement.

You can also do your own ‘player watch’.
