This guy has it. Lets hope he keeps it up.

I like this lad.

I’m baffled at the price we landed him for. I’m not claiming he is exceptional; and he looks like the sort of player that can have a shocker.

But he is technically accomplished and calm on the ball.

That’s good enough for me.

 

[Zest]

Loved him getting into it…

Risky and silly, but filled our players drive levels right back up.

Someone said he’s like Carrick, agree, but with a snarling tackle when needed.

 

[Zest]

Imagine next season, when he’s fully adjusted to the pace…

He looks like an absolute bargain , especially when you think Everton payed £30M for Owobi !!

I think his previous club had a sell on%. So we paid less for Bentancur and inflated Kulusevskis fee to compensate.

50m euros for the pair seemed about right at the time. Feels cheap now

Ah yes, I remember that. Good point.

Two good signings. Have immediately improved the side.

Thought he was going to be too casual for the Premier League perhaps but he's gotten to grips with the speed of the game here already. I can forgive him getting caught in possession sometimes as long as he busts a gut to get it back, which he does. Great signing.

 

[Jimmy G]

Brings a calmness and flow to our midfield, quality addition and will only get better

Wow. Compelling stuff. Impossible to argue with stats like that!

He is exceptionally good.
I hope he wants to stay with us.
That bit of aggro he was involved in today shows he can't be trifled with.

Mate I think, quite remarkably, he pretty much adjusted to the pace of the league after the first game lol

Yeah, I know he signed a perm but I can see other clubs being very interested in him.
Kulu loves it here and let's hope Bentacur either does or will feel the same.

Its a mini version of Wenger plucking Henry from Juve reserves n Vieira from AC…

Similar that both their trait sets look better suited to Prem style than Serie A.

Fair play, if they can settle at this level and move up periodically with maturity, Conte getting right in their heads.

Love this guy, he's a great midfielder but my love is amplified because of what we had to endure before he arrived.

It was on show after he came off.

He makes players around him seem better with how calm he is.

 

[Stag]

The midfield Berbatov, silky and composed. A bargain at £17m if thats indeed what we paid

 

[Billy Bob mate]

Loved him nicking the ball off MSM and wiping him out at the same time.

 

[The Swellhead Spur]

Crazy how good he has been for us
