Not if you can multi task
.I did it when folk online claimed that Stephens in our Championship team, later Solly in our PL offered nothing. Confirming my suspicions that people were talking out of their arses.

At first I thought you’d typed what day it is.
I absolutely LOVED that slide tackle/cross. That's the kind of desire you want to see, and to actually bloody pull it off?! Superb. Amazing footwork and finish for the goal as well. He's looked good in flashes but bloody hell, he was exceptional in the second half on Sunday. Minteh much improved as well.

Leeds United fans, probably with some justification, thought they have robbed us for that money. Very good player at Championship level, but £40m is a lot. But there does seem to be something about him, and I think the stats crunchers may not have pressed the wrong buttons after all. Early days yet, but he is still only 22.
B-right-on
Living the dream
I loved his absolute desire to chase down and win the ball every chance he got, incredible workrate. His not giving up attitude got us the second goal and the cross for Welbz winner. He's got an advantage over the other signings in that he's played a season in the Championship so is used to the pace of English football. Still, he's got to produce the goods and he looks like he's mustard at the moment.
Marked difference when Enciso came on, unfortunately.

Gotta feel a bit sorry for Rutter. Couldn't buy a goal earlier in the season and then Georginio turns up and starts BANGING them in.

Pretty sure we interviewed him and turned him down. There wouldn't be sour grapes if it was his choice.

I think this is part of the reason I’m yet to be convinced. I’ve seen a player on TV for Leeds who continually flattered to deceive, then missed the last two home games due to illness and holiday, but the time he had in the first two home games he was generally very poor, both offensively and defensively, just backing up everything I’d seen from his time at Leeds.
I look forward to being proven wrong against Leeds and for the rest of the season.

Ruttner cost us a goal in the first half…
And he was poor in the first two home games in the periods he played.
I’m really glad he’s got his first two goals though - hopefully this’ll lead to a sustained period of better form for us.
I wasn't sure about his start with us but a very convincing argument made in the 2nd half.
I'm hoping he can be like Pedro. Watford fans liked him but thought they'd had our pants down only for him to push on to another level. I think Rutter might be the same.
I was expecting another delicate little wing flower. But he's actually got plenty of muscle and holds the ball up really well and is a physical presence.

TB dodged a bullet.
Ignoring the price tag which is very difficult to do. But first half had me thinking oh we have a good stand in for Pedro. Second half had me thinking oh we have pedros replacement.
The finish for the goal was fantastic. But from his time at Leeds he missed more than he scored if he continues to put them away like that we have a player. He’s got everything else.
