Found this on him from last month,never heard of him personally.

Never heard of him, so you didn't go to the game against gladbach then.

 

[Tugay One Cup]

Is he a Gundogan type or more of a Sahin type?

He can play higher up but I think he's been impressive in playing that Busquets role and sitting amongst the centre backs dictating the play. He's 23 and captain of his club which is something that excites me. Desperately need leadership in the midfield.

I've heard granite is a hard as rock type player!:))

Well he has seen 3 red cards this season so far.

No I didn't mate.

Made his name with Shaqiri in that very good Basel side that dumped the rags out of the CL a few years back. We could do a lot worse.

I'd gladly take Xhaka here.

 

[Lkzerinho]

Excellent player, plays a lot like busquets

Was actually quite impressed with him in both legs against us.

also practically ran that game against Juventus

 

[FCBarca]

Like Busquets? Doubtful we'll ever hear that comparison being made

Big time fail on the thread title.

Talented but tempermental too, might be a good fit for the Premiership in that regard but I question his decision making & work rate

He should fit in with the rest of our current squad quite easily then!
