Seen him twice now. Gotta be honest doesn't really look up to it. Can't really hold ball up.He was ok once he had a bit of space at the end and pinged it around quite nicely. Not championship quality.

Thoughts?

Think he's a very good addition for us. Does everything he needs to do well, don't see the problem.

He was brought in to hold the ball up. He blatantly can't do it. Big guy, but not strong on the ball.

He is a terrible 'forward' my Leeds supporting mates were pissing themselves laughing when you took him off their hands.

Until he scores (Harley anyone?) and everyone claims he is a God in a Brighton kit!

As assessments go that is pretty much total bullshit. It's hard to hold the ball up when you are under orders to play ten yards back of the sole striker to be fair.
Let's see when he has settled and when the club has recovered from this horrid patch of form and starts to shape up offensively rather than being first and foremost sent out to avoid conceding goals.

I thought he looked ok. Worth giving him a bit of time to settle.

I think he was 'okay' but as the match went on he improved as Barnsley pressed and left more space up front. He seemed reasonably good in the air and his distribution was nice. He held it up fairly well at times which did take a little pressure off.

I think we will be pissing ourselves laughing when he scores at St Marys in a fortnight...

Looked OK to me. Give him a chance, gives us a different option.

I thought he played well today. He tracked back alot and covered the right back area well as Inno seemed a little streched at times there. He was also stronger on hold up play than CMS and I think offers us a decent opportunity to show what CMS can do when partnered with a complementary player.
