chicagoblue Posted August 28, 2017 Report Share Posted August 28, 2017 Interesting one. Looks to be reasonably two footed. I don't see any great evidence of searing pace though. Had a quick look at compilation video and must say, some of the defending in that league is absolutely comical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markjazzbassist Posted August 28, 2017 Report Share Posted August 28, 2017 I didn't realize he was only 19 and already played European football. Granted with a Croatian side but still, some gems to be found. u-21 team or first team? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EFC-Paul Posted August 29, 2017 Report Share Posted August 29, 2017 He looks a talented lad tbh and at 19 he certainly has enough experience to step up No brainer for the reported fee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpartyBlue Posted August 29, 2017 Report Share Posted August 29, 2017 He does look promising. Obviously not a great league but he seems to be an intelligent player with a pretty well rounded skill set. Good at creating space for himself.

Sibdane Posted August 29, 2017 Report Share Posted August 29, 2017 We're definitely looking at the long-term with a lot of signings which is great. We still need a few more players that can provide a spark right now though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think this lad would be slung into the U's tbh He has over a 100 first team appearances albeit in a lesser league but has the experience and looked tidy against us tbh him and Barry stood out for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had a quick look at compilation video and must say, some of the defending in that league is absolutely comical. I just said this in the other thread about the defending. Isnt it bloody awful! Technically he seems sound but like you say doesn't seem that pacey, maybe Mirallas level, which I suppose is a start. I would be very surprised if he would be coming here to play in the U21s.

Matt Tiger Posted August 30, 2017 Report Share Posted August 30, 2017 I'd like the signing as long as he's not viewed as the answer to our striker need... He looks like a strong future option but isn't nearly good enough to be the immediate answer now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
London Blue Posted August 30, 2017 Report Share Posted August 30, 2017 I think we need to accept that Everton are a project, signing players for the future as well as ones for the present.

Bailey Posted August 31, 2017 Report Share Posted August 31, 2017 I take it back he actually looked like a player against us in the away leg. Strong, good burst, good feet and reads the game well.
