I've never seen the lad play but people with far far greater knowledge than me (Mills, Powell, Shenton, Kirmond etc) will have and I'm happy to rely on that knowledge. They haven't let us down.
From reading bits from the odd person who has, I get the impression he's a Keegan Hirst type of signing. By that I mean, a bit late to the party age wise, but a big lad who'll do the hard yards and his tackling. Solid if not spectacular,( James Stosic anyone?) but coming into an environment that will get the best out of him.
I think it was Jack Gibson who said "you have to have people who can carry the piano as well as those who can play it."
Thought it was Eric Morecambe tbh, but I'm willing to be corrected.....
Eric Morecambe's response to Andrew Previn was "I'm playing all the right notes, but not necessarily in the right order."
