"Extremely proud" is an odd term to use when you sell someone.

It's the sort of thing I'd expect Celtic to come out with if we ever flogged a player to Barcelona
A South African player going straight from their league to a big club in Europe is great exposure for the club and league.

Looks like a hun has got to his wiki page...
89.242.187.30 and 77.100.177.34

Wire in mods. I'm sure they're amongst us somewhere.
:cartuja: :lol:


Look forward to seeing how this pans out :)

Edit, the transfer, not the detective work..

He'll need to be outstanding with the ball. Looks too small.

Will he fall, or be another brick in the wall.

Strange signing. Obviously I would like the guy to be a great player but to be honest I would have preferred to see us bringing in a big, experienced centre half. Still we can only hope.
He looks far more suited to Brendan's style of play than a big centre half
Depends. Vvd was big and he could fit into Brendan's style i would think. To be honest I would be more concerned with the lack of experience. Take lustig out of our backline and it's relatively inexperienced. An older head in the middle could be useful at times. Especially if that head could get up to deal with crosses better than we seem to do currently.
Given the price paid I am not sure this guy will be expected to be a first choice pick this season anyway.

I thought this club was directly linked to Ajax, I wonder why they weren't interested.
Ajax will have plenty of ball-playing centre halves in their youth system already, I would imagine.

His main strength looks like his ability to read the game. He'll be the type who will nip in front of strikers and build counter attacks.

I think he looks like he will be a clever player but his height does worry me.

Looking forward to seeing him.

It's the perfect type of signing. Boyata and Jozo are the two CB's. We're not going to sign an experienced CB to sit on the bench.

This way we have an up and coming lad, moving to Europe and will be hungry and willing to learn. He's got 22 caps and we could have another top player on our hands if he develops well.

People pointing out his lack of height which is fair comment. I would have liked him a couple of inches taller, but he seems to have everything else so if he was taller we probably wouldn't have got him.
What size shoes does he wear? I like my defenders to be at least a 12.
