    Biyik has a turn of pace, not so sure about Fontas.

    All about improving our team - no room for sentimentality.

    Played a reasonable amount of games for Barcelona/B team. No doubt will be a good passer. Nigel implementing the way we want to play, passing out from the back.

    Fontas is left footed, but the weakness in his game is his lack of pace.

    So therefore I hope he's 1 of 2, as we need a CB with pace without question.

    Acceleration of 8 and Pace of 13 on FM? No way, not fast enough. Nige if you're reading...he's no what we need.

    You won't find many centrebacks that are both within our reach and good that have pace above 14 on FM...

    I'm joking about the whole pace thing. In other news it looks as if he's surplus to requirements at Barca and has been told to look for a new club

    Good touch, can run with the ball at his feet. Not as awkward as Hooiveld when trying to controll, a very Barcelona type player.

    Acceleration is more important than pace for a defender ;)

    I've never heard of him before, but he does sound promising.

    Well, I have checked the official site and there is no mention of the man!

    Rather disappointing really.
