Appreciation to the Manager and the Board

[vblockranger]

best signing in our history i read on twitter...

[Rebel R's]

i wonder where you have watched him maverick, i have never heard of him before last week. A couple of U tubes look good and Milan dont normally sign duds. Fingers crossed they have signed a star man. Appreciation to the board? dont go overboard!

Dito,up to last week I'd never heard of him,we have him for 3 months or so on loan,hardly cause to go completely over board with a thread like this.im
Glad he is here,apparently he is a very good defender but if we sign Samba or Alex or a quality striker I will sign your " 3 cheers for the board" thread.

Kron and Rebel: I'd heard of him - but I've never watched him.

I have however had a good look at the material available at he looks to be very good. Also - Lot's of people in the media saying he's real quality.

Who knows?

But that really misses the key point of the thread:

Thanks to the Manager and the Board for their efforts.

I have several friends in the land of frogs legs, garlic and onions and they are Marseille fans.
They have given me so much good information and reports of the player - and it is on good authority that he is as good as any defender currently in the EPL.
That'll do for me.

Have seen him on a number of occasions in the champions league although not this season. he is a quick talented champions league level player with an absolute thunderbolt of a left foot shot

providing he is match fit he will have a significant impact, Not sure he is as good going forward as Troure but will give more solid structure to the back four

Excellent signing, I hope we dont get knobled by bigger teams in the summer but by then he will hopefully have helped us stay up

[vblockranger]

think he is a quality player and will improve the team just think there were more important positions to fill, Faurlin's replacement, Centre back and god forbid a quality striker....Traore at LB was good i thought and now maybe MH is thinking of moving him to LW which i think would work well but if we just end up with a new left back this window then no matter how good a player he is we will struggle big time to stay up.

[yugohoop]

The thought of Traore at left mid and Taiwo at left back bring a big smile to my face! :drunk: Now all we need to do is replicate that on the right :sorry:

[kron-1664]

he sounds very good, wonder if he was signed on Hughes say so

[QPRDave]

I assume he's referring to Hughes.

Yeah i posted because the title is appreciation to the manager & board,
but thread is about taiwo didn't read it properly

[Robsondinho]

People havent heard of Taiwo? He is regarded as one of the best left backs in world football. Hasn't settled into Italy though. To be fair I am still shocked we have him.

[Westbyfleetr]

Taiwo is considered a legened at Marseille. Integral part of a team that won 2 Championships on the trot, breaking a run of something like 6 titles by Lyon. A lot of other big clubs - including Arsenal and Liverpool - were chasing him when Milan got his signature. Obviously it's not worked out there but that's our gain. He is a huge signing.

[Ric-Roc]

Spoke to a Nigerian fella who I know from Fulham yesterday & he was purring about this fella. Said he is the b0llox & rates him one of the best LB's in world football.

Must admit I'd not really heard of him till I done a bit of reading up on him but he looks like he could be a massive signing. His long range accurate shots are meant to be mean.

[Bigears]

Like most of you i had never heard of him either, but this is a definate Hughes style signing and if like some of his other signings over the year which quite a few of them i had never heard of either (Sambe, Santa Cruz) he has potential to be a star man.

[rangerforevereastcote]

My boy knew about him from Xbox when I told him last week we were signing him told me all his attributes how he was wxcellent and that he had signed him for his dream team whatever that means

[qpr]

I couldn't be more proud being a QPR fan right now, thanks for everything Tony, Amit, Phillip, Ruben, Mark & his coaching staff
