I wasn’t one of those calling for Sakho to be signed, but I haven’t made a judgment on him yet as he’s only just starter for us, and I believe in giving every new player a chance, I do think he’s improving each game, so I’ll hope to be instructing my jury sometime soon and asking for a verdict!

Don't agree players need bedding in. There are exceptions I agree but in the main a good player contributes from the off. We have a disturbing number who need bedding in including boriini who is still bedding in after a year. The happy pil team on here where saying the same thing about him a year ago. I think all players need to adapt to a new team and particularly foreigners to the EPL, i have heard loads of interviews from french players on french tv explaining how the EPL is different, mainly because it is much quicker and more physical than most if not all leagues. However, i usually can after a few games see if a player has the required attributes but is still adapting or he doesn't. I have most of the time been right honestly, and I am sure that most of you too can say after 5-10 games, who will be good and who will not.

Generally yes, i think that sounds about right...but it's not a rule though, there are exceptions.

I think the fact I watched Aspas in Spain actually makes it more difficult for me to judge him, because i saw that he can really play ball, i know he is capable of being a great player, but perhaps it now clouds my judgement of him in the PL. There are many players that are fantastic in one league and poor in another, Aquilani being one of them, Shevchenko another...

i like the look of sakho, he looks like he will be an agger type defender, confident on the ball and a ball playing defender.
however, he isnt very confident on the ball right now. but its only 2-3 games in.
i just dont like the way every tackle he makes is a slide tackle, he needs to stay on his feet.
toure.....i just love him.

I seemed to be in a minority but I am highly impressed by Sahko already. His tackles are first rate and i seemed to like his commitment as well. Shaky debut forgiven for me. Only problem for me is that he is left footed...like my hero and VC, Daniel Agger.

Fair comment and may be if I had watched him in Spain I would have had a different view.
