Must be a dream move for him, he looks absolutely DELIGHTED.

Looks a lot happier inside, must have just been a bit of shock to come from Portugal to England and be asked to stand on the seafront in baltic conditions in a t-shirt

Khadra, it's Khadra

I thought I'd spelt it correctly, I blame predictive text

 

[Miximate]

U23s ? Reckon he could play in U14s and get away with it. Maybe thats just me getting old

Looks like a bit of a baller (as the young people say).

That first bit of the clip, got really quick feet and lovely close ball control. As someone said earlier, if he's anywhere as near as quick as Our Tariq, he's going to be an excellent and exciting player for us.

I wouldn't be surprised if there's a plan to pair up Benicio with Tariq Lamptey on the training pitch, as there are obvious parallels - small in stature, low centre of gravity, fast, and can skin a player for fun.

If I'm right, we can look forward to Benicio benefiting from Tariq's experience and success, and coming on in leaps and bounds.

How many appearances for Chelsea has Lamptey made when we signed him ?

TBF I remember seeing Lamptey play for Chelsea (against Arsenal it was) on telly and thinking he looked incredible - was delighted when we signed him soon after.

You're right - but he only came on in the sub after 60 mins.

My point is - and it is very obvious, but our strategy is to look at those talented players at big clubs at a level above ours and getting them in with a clear pathway to first team PL squad if good enough. It worked for Lamptey and it will be the same for all these players.

And i'd pay good money to see them facing off against each other in a training game

That's all well and good, but can he slow down play and pass it backwards?

Another Ashworth waste of time then.
