I dont mean it like that im hoping he will come out a good player he looks like he has a lot of potential, but when i ask people about him they speak about him like they would about Eddie Johnson which makes me think he is just going to be looked at as a joke ?

Not to me they don't.

I think it's probably taken him longer to settle but maybe they expected that and why they brought in a number of wide players.
The little I've seen he has an eye for a pass and but needs to strengthen up and get with the pace of the game.

If Dortmund wanted him then i highly doubt it. Didn't see Dortmund wanting Eddie Johnson just before we got him

Rudy would be a better comparison. Nice guy but f*cking crap at football.

He caused Forest problems on Saturday when he came on, though.

As for Kim, let's give him time.

Once Kim gets a run in the team I think he'll become a big player for us.

At the moment I think he's still trying to settle in.

Eddie Johnson was just not very good.

when we signed Kimbo i was sceptical. However in the summer i managed to get tickets for the Olympics semi final at Old Trafford between Brazil and South Korea. This gave me the chance to see Kimbo in the flesh for the first time and i have to say that me and my old man felt he was one of the best players on the pitch. He was neat, tidy, skilful when required, and had a good footballing brain. In fact, he hardly gave the ball away and a few times he had Rafael chasing shadows. I was so impressed I really expected him to be one of our big players so i'm a bit perturbed he has hardly featured. No doubt it's tough settling in a new country, and a tough division like the championship, so hopefully Malky is just biding his time.
