I think he is going to be the signing of the summer for us.
His passing alone makes such a difference, you can see that the easy pass half of the time is to the keeper. But he takes the ball and switches the play across the defence or turns and goes forward.
I don't want to make this into a Fab vs Hendo post but the difference is night and day between the two.
I have a feeling it might actually force Hendo to be a bit more adventurous in the long run too.
As for Shaqiri, the lad is quite quick thinking on the ball isn't he. I'd like to see him play in a midfield three with Keita and Fabinho behind the front three.
Really think his quick passing and eye for a ball could be devestating especially on the many occasions that we break fast.
I think he'd get a fair few assists playing there.
On a side note, as soon as they called Fabinho a pen supreme or whatever they said... I knew he'd miss haha.
I seem to remember them saying something similar about the great Rickie Lambert.
Can't wait for West Ham now, got a feeling we are going to destroy them.
