He wants to be here, that's a plus. For once I look forward to the international break.
Gives us the time we need to get the players on the same page and gelling.

Lad should be buzzing, its a big upgrade leaving Bournemouth to go to Leeds. Atleast he wants to be here too 👍

He looked sad to me.

Like him too. I went and watched a couple of Bournemouth replays yesterday to have a look
at him and how he plays. He's got quick feet.
And he's good positionally. Looks to have a high
football IQ (would've been a good Bielsa add).

There's a chance he could be more than just
a player they chucked in the deal. International
break allows the team to start to at least figure
out who they all are and what they do.

Will add, in one of the games he was moving from
an inverted winger position through the middle.
Linked a lot of attacks which led to one sweet goal.

Promising when you add to what we have.

I’m surprised he’s happy to be here. He was a Premier league player and has been shipped out back to the Championship to make way for Sinisterra. I’d be fuming. However, he does come across as a nice kid, so I hope he can enjoy his time with us and that he gets another promotion on his CV!

Yep, he’s been shafted st 11th hour, hope he uses it as motivation.

Been watching more of his games. The more I do,
the more I think we have a player. His physical
movement is exceptional. Just looks like an athlete.
Glides past people. Tall too. Great balance on the
ball. Clever player.

Best of all, he hardly misses games. In Bournemouth's
promotion winning season I think he played 48 games
in all competitions. In his first season in the Prem with
them he played 30 across all competitions. And so
far this season played every game in the Prem and their
one cup game. Impressive.

He might not be on Sini's game-changing level. But,
he's available for a ton more games than Sini ever was.
Or will be. And in a team that needs players fit, he
could well be a solid add to this squad. Happier by
the day that we got him.

I am a bit like you, UH, he would not be the first player on my list, but I've looked at some Bournemouth highlights, and he always seems to appear in them, even just for a moment or two. He's not the number ten we need, but like you say, he stays fit and he's proven in the Championship and
the Premier League.
Some commentators such as Kagey seem to have given up on him without even seeing what he has to offer. I was never a fan of Sini, but Anthony looks better suited to Farke's style. He just looks like he can unblock these low-blocking teams.
