N'Jie - ok to play?

[mikeeegreen]

Does anyone know if N'Jie has had all the paperwork cleared yet so he can be in contention for Saturday?

 

[hellava_tough]

If it was a matter of paperwork, I'd be surprised if he couldn't.

 

[mikeeegreen]

We haven't really heard anything on whether it's been cleared. It would be so Spursy if that's the reason he can't play on the weekend

For me its more hope rather than expectation he will play Saturday. A late cameo at best, perhaps.

A sports person visa which I believe they come in on takes up to 3 weeks

Let's hope he's as good as everybody thinks (based on 1. He's quick and 2. He's new) or we will have a second total meltdown in a week

I'm sure we'll find out at the press conference.

Is that Thursday ?

No it's a big meeting with lots of camera's and journalists, but that's not important right now.

People will need to give him time and will hopefully learn from the past when we all got a little over excited about new incoming players.
It will end in tears if they dont learn.

...they'll never learn SteveH, never.

That's why we could do with signing Berahino this week. I doubt N'Jie will start, however he may have an opportunity off the bench and I'd hate to think everybody was expecting an immediate impact. Berahino's PL experience would be nice to have available.

It normally takes about 3 weeks, but depending on how confident we were of getting him, the application may well of been underway before we signed him.
I wouldn't get your hopes up for Saturday, perhaps a cameo.

You're pretty new around here, are you?

Word Up!

...sorry...couldn't resist

Forget whether he plays or not... does anyone know how to pronounce his name.

Well played sir... well played.

"Gee". Simple as that. As in BeeGees. Or Geeze. Just Gee.

I think he will be in the squad this week, that's my opinion. Not so much because he is "ready" or because I think he is new, therefor good. Only because he can fill a spot in which our fit options are very slim.
