Just seen his picture on the club site.. jeez not exactly inspiring. How long is he going to take to get in shape, I wonder?

I'm really hoping it's just how the picture has been taken, but he looks seriously overweight. Ye he doesn't look good at all. Going to be a while before he's fully fit. Looks more like a foreman than a footballer in that pic. Christ, has this bloke even had a pre-season?! If pace is this fella's main attribute then he'll do well running with that bubble gut into the 6-yard box!

More deadwood. The downward spiral continues. Since the day we heard rumors about Stoke wanted Berahino, the push downwards has increased. Recruitment business have been some of the worse we have seen in English top football. We throw money to mediocre players and players that is happy just to collect a big paycheck. WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON STOKE!!!

WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON STOKE!!! We seem to be in an oblivious tailspin, like an alcoholic who thinks all their problems will be solved by just one more drink We've gone from Stokealona to a shapeless, rudderless, slow, tepid, gutless team of plodders, has-beens and never-wills All my pre-season excitement is rapidly evaporating like a splash of petrol on the Mojave desert, at noon on the hottest day of the year - in a heatwave

Nothing like giving a guy a chance eh? For funk sake remember Fuller? Was he a superstar when we signed him? 13 goal in his previous 64 games when he signed for us in 2006! He left the club as a hero! Give the guy your support and then if he is shit moan, don't start moaning when we haven't even seen him kick a ball.

Pathetic arent they Some of them are constructive with their criticism which is fine but for a good majority it’s just bile

Biggest issue is he likes to run onto balls, wont work. Not because of him but because we dont create anything. We have to play 4-2-3-1 SURELY

Looking at the video of his goals a couple of seasons back, there is no way he is going to have those little passes between defenders he thrives on, or did thrive on.
And he's not a physical player who gets involved in other aspects of the game.
Definitely no logic to the signing once again.
If we had restructured our shit midfield I would maybe understand it.

I think it might be time to drop out after the window closes. So many impatient people who seem like they are revelling in our current difficulties and want more change and to attack the manager. I’m not happy either but the lack of any sense of proportion is amazing, hammering a player before he kicks a ball or the team after one game in the diamond. We’re sailing into another Rowett-style lynching within 10 games given the attitude of many.

It reminds me of the thread when Odimwingie was rumoured to be signing and then he did It’s out there if you look...Fucking idiots

We’re sailing into another Rowett-style lynching within 10 games given the attitude of many. Bit dramatic. It only matches the atmosphere at the stadium though. People aren’t happy. More people are waking to the idea that Scholes is absolutely useless. More people are wondering if the Coates’ are running things properly. That’s positive. We need more accountability. Without it, we won’t improve.

All I'd say is give him a chance and he'll deliver, he's never really had a run at The Villa due to injury and different managers if you can give him the service he may turn out to be a decent signing there's a reason deano has only loaned him and it's not because he's crap he just needs to regain his confidence and if he does you'll enjoy his stay
UTV

Good luck to the lad , hopefully he gets chances and takes them , low risk signing compared to most and we need to accept where we are and look to gradually improve instead of living in the clouds .

He is one of many signings we have made with a big 'If' surrounding him. Still a low risk signing but smacks of a bang average striker being added to a group of other bang average strikers in a at best midtable side.

I wouldn't bother though, most on this board make you feel we have been relegated out of the fucking league pyramid. There is zero balance at the moment just a whole lot of pissed knickers.

The reaction to the first game by many on here was the surprise that after a full pre-season and a transfer window the performance on saturday was a carbon copy of many shambles of last season. I would have been happy to see a glimpse of progress but there wasn't any....thats the point which in fairness to an outsider you wouldn't recognise.

Consistent with Nj being the anti Nj
Having signed quick keen, young something to prove, give me my chance, players for Luton Town
He now wants to sign slow old, nothing to prove, one last pay day, one last fat contract please, players for Stoke City
Nj is the anti Nj
I know!!!!
Confusing! Isn't it!
