Seems to have gone a little bit under the radar I wonder how and when Hughes plans to use him ?

Maybe he'll use him sometime after the first game of the season?

I see what your saying and only one game gone of course, I'm sure we will see him used more away from home perhaps? 5 million ££ I'm pretty confident he won't be warming the bench all season. For me since he signed he's a bit of an unknown and I trust Hughes on this one. Again going back to the 5million fee what exciting times we are in being able to leave him on the bench , imagine that 7 years ago? Mind blowing for this potter.

Sneaky feeling he will start on Saturday, but I wouldn't trust my sneaky feelings.

Just curious really , wondering if Hughes sees him as a diouf upgrade . Like you I know nothing about him . How does he differ from diouf

I trust Diouf to bring home the bacon, but I'm always keen to see what new signings have got in their locker.
He's supposed to be a beast in the air, can well image he'll feed off Arnies and Shaq's crosses.

Whatever happens over the next few weeks if he plays or not, if we could give home a proper stokie welcome in some way, only trouble I have is how to pronounce his name.

Affelay playing in the middle instead of Adam as well potentially.

About the same as me when trying to think what the manager thinks

He's cost a lot of money, so he must have something about him.

What you can guarantee is when he starts a Premier League game, some clown will start a thread slagging him off and then live to regret it later in the season.

Watching his ball control & skills during the pre-match warm on Sunday it beggared belief,looks another very talented Addition to the squad.
I look forward to seeing him perform as & when he gets his opportunity.

Thought his link up play is supposed to be veey good, he'll probably get as many asissts as goal by holding up and bring on rushing wide men into play

He is supposed to be a specialist header of the ball isn't he? Rarely loses a headed challenge - is that right?

Won more headed duels than any other player in all the main leagues across Europe or something like that. He's not as pacy as Diouf from what I've seen but is a tidy player. He's the 'different to what we've got' player Hughes said he wanted.
