Plays up front for the best team in the league, and he'll fire us to the premmmmm Why have I got "Ace of Spades" stuck in my head when I read that......? Songs that will never see the light of day. |

Lovely stuff. This transfer window has really gone from 0 to 100 very quickly! I beg we can just turn up on the first day for once

It'll be very interesting to see where he fits in.
On the face of it with him being described more as a 10 there isn't really a spot for him.
But with quicker wingers and more attacking wingers then we can easily accommodate him as the striker. But puts more onus on the third midfielder being creative too.

This guy and Johnson battling for the number 10 role. |

I think 4231 is looking more and more likely if a big lump comes in as well. |

Hes a #9 with stats of 1 in 2 he might be a false 9 occasionally. |

Nixon has more front than Blackpool. He hasn't got a scooby.

Transfers like this or Vidigal are the sorts I never thought I would see for as long as we were in the Championship. It plays a massive part in building up excitement for the season kick off next week, I actually can't wait. |

He’s seemingly more of a creative player than he is one to sit back and defend though (is what I thought). If we do play 4-2-3-1, we typically need two players to sit back a bit more. Of course, he could also play as more of a box to box in that position, with Pearson never going passed the half way line. |

My understanding from the interviews was that he was supposed to be coming in to help us create. Good thing that he can play both though. I know that his workrate was highly valued. Perhaps he’ll alternate IF we do play 4231, which is just my guess anyways. |

Oh I very much doubt Neil wants that, just explaining that he has experience there should it be needed and obviously his goals and assists output made it seem like he’d had a bad season comparatively to previous ones. To me he should be an 8 and carrying the ball forward and arriving on the edge of the box as that’s what he’s proven to be very good at |

I hope he’s signed by next Saturday so I can belt out ‘Me’ by Taylor Swift. I’ll have the ground rocking.
