glynriley Posted July 20, 2015 Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 AND if this deal takes place, am I correct in thinking he will be our first ever French player ? Kalifa Cisse was born in France but played for Mali. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sydneybcfc Posted July 20, 2015 Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 No, can't be?? Not that I can think of a name right now, but we must have had a French player here at some point? We had a french youngster that i don't think ever played, name escapes me though.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fat Controller Posted July 20, 2015 Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 West Ham signed Sahko (who scored against us last season) from Ligue 2. He scored double-figures in the Prem last season. That's interesting. Especially as Sakho's goalscoring record for Metz at that level was pretty similar (slightly better than 1 in 3). (I was being genuine when I said i have no idea of the standard of Ligue 2 football, I wasn't trying to insinuate anything about the standard/his ability) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phileas Fogg Posted July 20, 2015 Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 Looks very promising, albeit just from the video. Glad we're looking abroad, looks like the sort of player we need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
And Its Smith Posted July 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 Don't think I saw him touch it with his left foot once in that video. Not necessarily a bad thing, just an observation. There was another video I saw where he curled two goals in with his left. I went through so many websites to find it that I cannot find it anymore! Will keep looking.

And apparently Bolasie was born in Lyon so there is one. Although he moved to London before he was aged 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bangkok Red Posted July 20, 2015 Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 Looks decent I'm surprised that he wants to leave the top tier in France to play in the 2nd tier in England Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
extonsred Posted July 20, 2015 Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 Don't think I saw him touch it with his left foot once in that video. Not necessarily a bad thing, just an observation. The way he uses inside and outside of right foot so effortlessly (in that video) effectively gives him two / three feet!! Also liked speed, height -- him and Flinty could score a load from freeman and bryan's crosses,and about the fourth goal -- like a JET classic -- again if video true picture then will fit the bill if he settles well.

REDOXO Posted July 20, 2015 Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 He likes to dink it over the keeper doesn't he. My God. If Baldock could have finished like that under SOD, life could be very different right now.... Shall we just say he's awful then, cuts out the middle man? Enter Marina's Rolls Royce! Kodjia see him being confirmed in the next few days? Well someone had to try and make a pun.... Nice Job!...Don't see many alternatives....How about he doesn't look an old Kodjia Although the video was the good bits, player of the year speaks volumes...I would hope this has legs!
