Saint Juanmi!

[ChilcoSaint]

His full name is Juan Miguel Jiménez López apparently. He'll be Spanish then.

 

[Puck]

Liking this one. Elia and Djuricic were decent loans but neither did enough to justify paying the price we'd agreed.

 

[timatoketchup]

How do you pronounce his name? We must remember alot of people where underwhelmed by Bertrand and others.

Well he has got into the Spanish national team. So that is a pretty big clue.

Right, time for a chant...

Don't you Juanmi baby
Don't you Juanmi, oohhhhhh

 

[ChilcoSaint]

I was thinking more along the lines of No Doubt:

Juanmi
We used to be together...

Etc.

 

[Jose Fonte baby]

Pelle averaged a PL goal every 271 minutes, Juanmi averages a La Liga goal every 279 minutes.

 

[James G]

He's a bad signing because he isn't Charlie Austin? Huh. That's a new one.

Pretty happy with this, because he's a player of a type we need. Now I'm going to go get my torch and pitchfork store ready for when we sign a new goalkeeper and he's not Charlie Austin either.

 

[Pelletron]

Meh. Be disappointed if we sign him and not Austin.

£5m for a full Spanish international - what's not to like? Not as if the Spanish national side is starved of attacking players either. Is fairly low risk.

 

[Beef]

Juanmi for £5m or Elia for £3m..... Yeah I know who I would choose.

 

[Pelletron]

Pelle averaged a PL goal every 271 minutes, Juanmi averages a La Liga goal every 279 minutes.

That will be great - so every time Pelle scores, we'll know Juanmi will be knocking in a second eight minutes later. Love a bit of routine and consistency.

 

[MountwaySaint]

People need to realise he isn't a out and out striker. So we could go after a main striker as well. Juanmi plays behind the striker or on the wings. If he gets himself on form he will be more then a decent option for us.

This. And if, as Archers said above, both Juanmi and Austin would be a gamble, then I'm back to what I said before - get both.

 

[MountwaySaint]

Right, time for a chant...

Don't you Juanmi baby
Don't you Juanmi, oohhhhhh

Juanmi, me and you, lots and lots for us to do...

 

[tomw24]

Juanmi, me and you, lots and lots for us to do...

I'm going to pretend I didn't see that!

 

[tomw24]

OK I hold my hands up I thought he was an out and out striker.

 

[Jose Fonte baby]

2 assists last year, with 8 goals.

You made a mistake?

[hotbovril]

I know absolutely nothing about this guy so I've decided to tell myself that he isn't a regular in the Spanish national team because he's only 95% as good as David Silva.

 

[Libby]

OK I hold my hands up I thought he was an out and out striker.

Me too and I wasn't keen, if he is more an Elia/Djuricic player then I'm more than happy with his signing.

yes, but I learned to say "Bertrand" eventually
