[Albion] Yves Bissouma. What a player!

[Two Professors]

Ive just had a good look at his highlights on YouTube and the major difference between him and Kaz is Bissouma plays with his head up and seems to have a picture of what he is trying to achieve. Kaz never did.

I'm really excited about his kid, he is only 21 but looks immense.

Agreed.I think it might have been the eagerness to get involved,as well,that brought Kaz to mind.

 

[Megazone]

But where to play him?

A replacement for Gross? Surly not...

Definitely not.

 

[raymondo]

Gross, as good as he was at the Amex, away from home he was largely ineffective, mainly due to the lack of pace and support around him. I could see Propper playing slightly further forward and Bissouma rampaging through the middle.

Yes, something like this. Gross was great at home but few goals/assists away from the Amex. Could start Bissouma instead of GRoss in away games - or move Gross to wing instead of Knockaert, but Knocky's defensive work is decent. Anyway, a nice problem to have...as is who drops out when Alireza plays?

who drops out when Alireza plays?

JI probably

 

[BensGrandad]

I think it will be Jahanbaksh wide right possibly Izquierdo on the left so March and Knockaert on the bench unless CH decides on a more defensive line up away and uses Bernardo, Bong and or Sutner as full back and one as left sided DM.

I can see us playing 4-3-3 away from home, shore up the midfield so we don't get over run, something like this:


Ryan

Bruno - Duffy - Dunk - Bernardo

---Stephens - Bissouma - Propper

----AJ --- Andone ----- Izquierdo

Had a great view of both goals,both proper net-busters.Bissouma looks a cracking prospect,he reminded me of a young Kazenga,very quick and tricky.Definitely worth every penny of my £5 entry fee!!!

Runs very fast? Sometimes kicks the ball very hard? Can do back somersaults? Nando's loyalty card holder? Sh1t! - please don't tell me we've paid several (undisclosed) £millions for Kazenga MkII !

 

[dazzer6666]

Bearing in mind he cost around £5 million...that’s nothing in today’s market especially in the striker department. If nothing else he’ll be a sound addition to our squad depth.

FFS...that was his relegation buy-out clause not his true value - we were happy to pay around 20m euros in January. He's a bloody BARGAIN at that price.

Isn't it great that we are discussing a plethora of attacking possibilities with the squad that has now been assembled? Fabulous or what?

That’s the point I was trying to make, apologies if I was unclear. As you say, at £5 million we’ve got unbelievable value, and he’s definitely a decent player. Thus even if he doesn’t hit the ground running due to injury, I believe he is a great addition especially at that price.

 

[Langley]

Just because we got him cheap doesn’t mean he’s going to be up to it. I know we can’t easily afford to spend tens of millions but there’s been serious investment in every area except the strikers. Bit concerning , but hopefully andone wil hit the ground running and Murray is as good as last year

You don't judge a book by the cover or the price you paid for it, some of the best books I have read from Amazon, cost me 1p.
So until you see him play you cannot make judgement.

Love that Matt Ryan runs the length of the pitch to celebrate even in a friendly!
