Eloquent. Says all the right things.

Refreshing not to listen to a cabbage chatting a load of shit. I'm actually really happy to have someone who is going to give it a good go. And has his priorities straight.

Let's see how he gets on.

Could be a legend, could be out by Xmas...you never know with this club!

Very refreshing to listen to honest, frank replies as opposed to the whingeing and whining excuses. He certainly knows where he has come from and more importantly where he is going to and how he intends to get there

Shame about the sports direct sign lingering in the background:

It was a good press conference, nice to have someone who has a bit of class.

Wow! I love the guy already - what a breath of fresh air. I’ve got a man crush on him before a ball is kicked!
