"His experience at Bolton started well but a change of management didn't help. Now he has signed we can now look to get the best out of him and see what role suits him best."
I reckon playmaker, Scoham.Doesn't sound like Powell knows exactly how he wants to use him yet? Might depend on who else we get in?
But I make you right, it sounds like it's perhaps Vetere who has done the homework.

just hope he can settle and powell uses him to his potential. been at some pretty big clubs in all types of football...spanish, english, greek...but struggled to hold down a place.
good luck mikel me old china!

This puts the Racon / Semedo debate into perspective. I would love Michael Stewart to play alongside him .This signing really excites me.Maybe Vetere might pull another rabbit out of the hat.The club have managed the publicity very well deflecting attention from Racon's departure.

Was SHG who suggested Vetere was probably behind it, I agree though."His experience at Bolton started well but a change of management didn't help. Now he has signed we can now look to get the best out of him and see what role suits him best."

That is genius. Hope it catches on as a chant.0 -
How many people have actually seen this bloke play?. He seems to have been lauded as some sort of messiah already.
Think we should probably wait until we have seen him play before getting too excited.
Hopefully he'll turn out to what people are assuming he is.

I've seen him play a few times for both Real Sociedad and TenerifeHave to say provided he can settle in (which should be ok given he speaks English and has twice before spent prolonged periods in the country) he will be a couple of notches above what we have seen at The Valley in the last few seasons (Shelvey aside) in terms of technical ability. He isn't a holding midfielder or an out and out attacking midfielder but he moves the ball well and is the kind of player that could really be a linchpin in the side, in exactly the same way as his brother is albeit obviously at a far higher level. Has played over 100 la liga games. That kind of experience and quality really makes him a great addition in my opinion.0

You've seen him play so I respect your opinion. Hope he works out.0 -

Genius if only we could get the harmoniesCan I be the first to suggest 'He ain't Xabi, he's his brother'?
His hair is long
with many a winding run
who knows where, who knows when
but he can pass
and he can score
he aint Xabi
He's his brother

HE'S NOT FROM TENERIFE
Good signing by the way, did well at Bolton. Will give us a bit of class lacking in this division, in a way that Stewart did, without being such a ginger mercenary.
