His the sort of player to get bums off seats he has electric pace technically good on the ball. Although I felt this wasn’t a priority signing this transfer window I am excited.

I know this won’t go down with a lot of Alli haters we now have some fantastic young exciting players Bergwijn in an attacking line up with Alli sounds good to me at least stat wise we’ve added a player good on both scoring and assists.

I'm not just saying this because Eriksen has fucked us off and this guy is the cool new kid on the block, but this guys potential dwarfs Eriksen's and he reminds of a de Bruyne with his ability to create at pace. He's not as creative as Christian but he has so much more athleticism that creates so much more space for himself and his teammates to exploit.

We were linked with him for ages last year, can't remember if there was ITK though.

I've just been reading through the thread from last summer to see what everyone was saying about him. Apparently Zaha isn't good enough for us and Dele is shit.

No pressure then :D.

Looks good and I have a good feeling about this signing, but we have to be mindful of the likes of Depay who’s stats were off the charts in Holland.

Anyway, Stevo!

Unfortunately most people seem to believe Dele is shit ... personally I don’t get it

World class? Is this based on anything or just being hopeful?

Hopeful, but based on their potential. Also depends on what your definition of world class is. I tend to use the word liberally so don't take it as I think they will become the Messi's or Ronaldo's of the game, but they can be extremely good players if they fulfill their potential.

Ok, I consider world class to be the likes of Hazard, Neymar, Mbappe. He looks decent from what I've seen of him, but see no way of saying he'll be world class. He hasn't done anything in a top division yet.

WELCOME WOUT STEVIE MOUNTAIN WINE!

Just like a young Wout Weghorst.

So far I've seen comparisons to Mane, Sterling and KDB

No pressure then....just happy we have signed a young prospect who appears to be highly regarded, hopefully he can hit the ground running and give us a much needed boost in an attack that looks like it has run out of ideas.

De Bruyne, really? He must have massive potential if he's likened to Sterling and De Bruyne, completely different players to eachother

Yeah, see above;)

I wouldn't compare him to any of them, as I've not seen him play much. I just hope he can do a good job for us.
