Welcome Abdukodir Khusanov

[Dax777]

Khuzy!!!!

 

[simon23]

Looks raw.....very raw

Has a lot of qualities in pace, physical etc but he will have a lot to learn regarding curbing some of that or he is going to give away a lot of penalties/free kicks if he is too nieve...however he also does have some CL experience so that will stand him in good sted....

an exciting signing as its a complete unknown...could be amazing, could be the opposite.

The lad must at least back himself which is a good sign

 

[The Colonel]

I now know two people from Uzbekistan.
Boris the Blade and this lad.

There was this crazy, but very fast, cyclist. Abdoujaparov. The Tashkent Terror.

 

[Chris in London]

45 I think

I’m now trying to think of a “Brimful of Asha” terrace chant.

But I keep getting distracted by the “bosom for a pillow” bit.

 

[Axel Freed]

We need a CD as ours are too often injured. Stones and Ake are that often injured one can’t rely on them. Being fit is simply one of the requirements a top sporter needs.

As for Khusanov, I didn’t know him. Video’s show he’s quick and strong, yet makes loads of sliding tackles that sometimes seems a bit rash. Let’s hope he doesn’t get booked too often as unfortunately diving has become a habit in the PL.
All the best to the young lad. Make us City fans proud!

A word that wouldn’t be out of place on Sports Desk with Alan Partridge

45

Wasnt that Balotelli's?

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Wasnt that Balotelli's?

Yep, but his lifelong idol is Micah Richards.

 

[argyle]

So I've just watched a highlight reel of him and he already looks a beast of a man, how come all our 20 year old academy graduates look like children in comparison

He ate all the other graduates at his academy.

Availability is the best ability!!?? :0)

 

[Xhavenjoe]

Yep, but his lifelong idol is Micah Richards.

Thats a coincidence
Micah Richards lifelong idol is also Micah Richards

 

[blueju]

Strong, fast and loves to tackle..and now he’s a blue

 

[Keeper!]

FFS City get a decent interviewer , a kid that can't speak the language and he was still pissed that it was asked 500 times the same question.

 

[Gone for a Burton]

A lad for the future, possibly a young Ruben who loves the physicality of defending.

Possibilty of a few 'familiarity' minutes in 'won' games.

A good no nonsense,
' ruff em oop, no quarter given ' , type of player in the Vincent, Zabba mold, wont go amiss.

Good luck lad.

A very exciting signing, a complete leftfield, unknown and he looks a proper character, going to be fun this one.

 

[blue b4 the moon]

Looking forward to seeing this lad play hopefully initially he can fill the RB void.

 

[I'm With Stupid]

These interviews could be 2 minutes long. But I guess it's all content these days.

They could and should be far better, embarrassing asking the same question 10 times and making the player feel and look so uncomfortable.

There is a reason why Samba described Khusanov as a "monster", Lens manager Will Still dubbed him a "tank", and why back home he has earned the nickname The Train.
