Iancarlo Poveda (now signed)

[Lo Ursem]

Hope he is not brilliantly inconsistent, a crowd pleaser who sometimes only does it when he feels like it.

 

[wrighty]

Look forward to more of his interviews.

 

[Arfa Sleep]

Hemir was happy.... scored 0 in a 46 game season

Good point, we should sign players who don't want to be here then they'll score loads to get out?

 

[Smiler]

Poveda is a lovely footballer and an excellent free transfer signing . At 24 , he can be idolised here. I see him as an asset to the squad. I hope he can get match fit quickly and maintain a high level of fitness in this very competitive league . Well done Stuart Harvey. I hope he can link up with Roberts like Diallo did. We need his quality.

He won't be idolised unless he's learnt how to shoot or pass to someone who can, which he hasn't done before now

 

[genewolf]

Reminds me of a young Don Corleone.

In fairness that did work with Bent

 

[Arfa Sleep]

In fairness that did work with Bent

It didn't, Bent quite publicly stated he wanted to be here.

 

[Thatheaderman]

I cant tell you the way I feel , because the way I feel is oh so new to me, about this.

 

[Teed]

Reminds me of a young Don Corleone.

Like someone Al Pacino threw out of a helicopter.

 

[El Gen]

Sean Thornton will be happy we finally have decent Colombian in town

Al was sitting at table mate, just saying

Maybe Benny Blanco from the Bronx?

Roberts has been idolised for producing very little. Our fans seem besotted with wingers. Even Jordan Jones was rated at one point.

 

[Blyth]

I don’t think there is anyone who is expecting that. The consensus seems to be that he is likely to leave but I haven’t seen anyone say we need to replace him with better.

There’s people saying he’s not as good as Clarke and putting negativity on the signing. Which is a clear indication they expect SAFC to sign someone of the same quality of Clarke. It’s just not gonna happen.

 

[Old Prestonian]

Text from my pal who is close to an employee of Blackpool when told of the signing "Oh dear he is trouble with double attitude & arrogance".

 

[Roker Scoreboard]

You claim negativity simply because some, me included, have pointed out he's hardly played any matches and has a very iffy injury record. Is full on positivity only allowed on the forum now?

 

[Barista]

I don't get why he's going for the cartel chic look he was born in London ffs. Anyways, hope it doesn't mean it is prelude to Clarke departing.

Watch the video I thought he had a south London accent, and thought it was bizarre, as was expecting a Spanish accent, but that explains it.

Why should fans just accept second best, it makes no sense, unless you don't want the club to move forward ?

 

[SAFC_Jack]

Don't forget Watson. He's still a kid but he's good enough to get some game time this season, even if not as a regular starter

Aye

I have addressed with two others who reminded me of him. Just think he’d benefit from playing every week, though worked canny for Rigg last season so there’s a balance.

 

[Fats]

It didn't, Bent quite publicly stated he wanted to be here.

Us or Stoke.....................He'd obviously been to Stoke
