Many people, including me, arr of the opinion that to get ourselves over the line this season we need a striker that can act as an out and out goalscorer. Although after watching a couple of videos of Etien and hearing people's descriptions of him I now think that if he takes his chance and forces his way into the side, then we wont need to sign a new striker. Etien could offer that instinctive goalcoring ability that for me is the one thing we've been lacking (especially when Bellers hasn't been fit).

Will be interesting to see how his physique looks (improved) from the last time I saw him against Newcastle, as the trainers and coaches have been helping him to develop his muscles/posture etc etc

Really hope he gets some goals, have watched him a number of times for Maribor on BET365 live betting streams! :D and he looks like he has so much potential! and hope he doesn't just vanish into the oblivion like Ferretti did! :o

Honestly never heard of him before he came to us but just seems like the player we've been missing (if we're missing anything at all). He's big aswell so wouldn't surprise me to see him winning a few headers... like a thinner, fitter Jon Parkin :lol: :lol: Hope he shows what he can do today!

He ain't really that big in all honesty mate, unless the weights and swimming is already working! ;)
