TheGunnShow 7,377 Posted June 30, 2023 Said it before and I'll say it again, that moustache has Morris Minor and the Majors vibes. Someone put stats up before saying he clocked up the most nutmegs (or something) in the Turkish league last season so he must have some tasty close control and good movement to pull that off.

Satriales 993 Posted June 30, 2023 So, is he the new Buendia, or the new Rasicha? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The second part to that little nugget of information is that he was the most nutmegged player as well 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yellow and Green 352 Posted June 30, 2023 Obviously hope he does well and all but I'm a bit disappointed that we've signed another left winger. It's early days of course but I make that 7 players who can play there.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Capt. Pants 5,008 Posted June 30, 2023 Strange looking dude isn't he. I can imagine a few Championship defenders will want to give him a warm welcome. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bit of an odd comment to make about a signing..You're gonna give him what's known as a "Cantwell complex"! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Branston Pickle 4,149 Posted June 30, 2023 This none was kept well under wraps! So, 4 “frees” replacing the guys who left - not bad going. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hmm Transfermarkt says that he played LW in every game that he played last season. https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/borja-sainz/leistungsdaten/spieler/634461 Either way, I hope that he's been signed to play in his proper position. It irritates me how clubs say player x 'can play all across the front line'... I think Josh Sargent has proven that one to be utter BS. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

On a tangent, who has been the last out-and-out RW for City, as opposed to the various #8 / £9 / #10 that have been put there to "do a job" for the team?

norfolkngood 1,174 Posted June 30, 2023 looks to be a very good signing on a free seems to have some quality !! Webber has a terrible record of signing wide players recently so hopefully this one turns out well , Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Otherwise, we've only got Tzolis, Rowe and Springett, possibly Mumba. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Google Bot 3,929 Posted June 30, 2023 (edited) He seems a more central player to me, watching him play and he said in the interview he likes to be 'vertical' - that suggests he's got eyes on playing through the middle - perhaps?! Possible #10, not just a winger. Edited June 30, 2023 by Google Bot Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
