****ing hate pitbull Think this is a smart signing. Not seen him play, but to be on the fringes of the Spanish national side shows promise and £5m is a bargain in today's football world
I think i might hate him more! But this song popped in my head! ha I think he could be a bit of a 'gem' only based on what ive researched. The low price tag should should take any added pressure off him too.
One of my favourite songs: We love you Spanish son, The week's not yet begun And everything is quiet, And it's always... You, Juanmi, always And forever You, Juanmi, always And forever Ba Ba Baaa Ba Baaa It was always You, Juanmi, always You, Juanmi, always You could probably skip the bit of verse and go straight to the chorus.
The Raul comparison from that Spanish journalist would suggest that he sees his future through the middle. Though his goalscoring record does not read like a natural finishers.
Saints set to sign Juanmi, and a second player, this week - so says Telegraph reporter and 'friend of the club', Jeremy Wilson. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/fo...-to-sign-Malaga-and-Spain-striker-Juanmi.html
Normally I would too, but Jeremy Wilson is about as close as you can get to the club's thoughts without actually being there.
So I decided to take a look at this guy in action, and the first full match I found was against Real Madrid at Bernabeu. Difficult to judge from that match because Real was dominating, and Juanmi rarely had the ball at his feet . He played as a kind of a second striker, behind the main striker. It could be observed that he has great technique and that silky touch similar to David Silva, very good close control and a way to get out of a crowded area like Lallana for example. He's also a willing runner, he was very disciplined in defence and he tracked back all to way up to Malaga's penalty area, and constantly moved up and down the pitch, showing good radius of movement. I have a good feeling about him.
