Pace is also my concern, he certainly knows where the goal is though.

Why is pace your concern when he isn't slow? He is faster than Harry Kane and if memory servs he has popped a goal or two in, don't quote me on that though.

Janssen slow is a myth, not lightening quick, but not slow.

Don't recall RVN being rapid.
Janssen reminds me a bit of him, in that he isn't flashy, just a lethal finisher. Could be just that they're both Dutch though :)

For me, he reminds me of Mick Quinn, I don't mean that in an insulting way just the way he finishes. He's every calm in infront of goal and as a short burst.

He's quick off the mark and everything he does in the box is composed when it comes to finding the back of the net, whether that's his first touch or the finish.

I know it's easy to forget him but it's worth remembering that N'Jie is a striker. Janssen is similar to Kane, true, but N'Jie is a totally different player and has a lot to prove. He'll give us another option.

It will interesting to see how he goes this season. Either Henry esque or crap. I don't think there will be any inbetween.

I like this guy, what I have read about him he is a man of immense character.

This is a great signing because of his mentality above anything else

Does he ever not wear his bomber jacket. On serious note I'm very excited about us signing him. Most excited I have been over a transfer since eriksen

The fat, lumbering Coventry player with a moustache? That Mick Quinn?

Yes, that's the one but he could finish very well.

Ignore of the phyique (if that's possible) and remember the guy's technique when it came to finishing. One of the most composed finisher of that time.
