Anyone else think it’s a reaction and they feel we’ve signed a dud in promise? No I think it’s not putting all our eggs in one basket. The lad earlier is cover for Martin by the seems of it. Promise is one for the future and this signing was always also needed to take some of the pressure off of him and Ruel. Martin won’t be around after this season I don’t expect and will reduce in his impact over the season so this is contingency for the future. |

Don't knock young players just because they haven't been prolific yet.
At 20 years old, Harry Kane scored just 2 goals on loan at Leicester in 13 matches.
He can also curl them in with either foot by the looks of it.

Sticking my neck out - looking long term, I think this will end up being the best of the 16. UTG

Looks a great signing that fits our mould and really does end our window strongly

Quick look at the orient thoughts on him. Has pace, power, 2 footed and linked up well with ruel last season for them. Played mainly on the right wing.
All positive

Am I mixing my players up, I thought he was more winger than striker but I've seen several mentions of him as a Martin replacement?

Looks decent from this YouTube clip, Looks like he knows where the goal is! As with a lot of new players this year, he's young so it's great that there's room to improve. |

More to the point how much was paid Looks like he might have been out of contract and thus compensation agreed as with Ruel |

I like the look of this player and think he could do really well for us. He can shoot from distance and put away those awkward crosses.
Having played with Sotiriou at Orient should be a bonus plus he has a habit of scoring on his debut. Pity he can't play tomorrow but otherwise I'm happy.
Welcome Shaq.

I’m confused - at the beginning of that press release it says he’s signed a 3-year contract, but at the end it refers to his “loan spell” . . . They listened to you  Press release changed |

If we are playing with wing backs, we must be planning on playing him through the middle? A good scoring record, if he played mainly it wide. |
