This him?

Ipswich player signed according to Radio Wales.
 
I wonder if he will play as the pivot in the middle of the back 3? Number 4 an interesting choice..
 
Hands up from me, I know nothing about this guy. Anyone seen any extended footage of him, what are his strong and weak areas?

Ive only seen bits, but is a bit like Grimes, play maker who comes deep to collect the ball, likes a challenge, got a bit of fire to him sometimes
 
Great to see he’s joined because of Martins influence, sounds very excited in his interview.

He's certainly got bite as others have said (actually that's his major weakness - can be rash and the opposition tend to target him and try to wind him up). People are seeing him as a replacement for Grimes, but for me he's more similar to Jay in that his physical side comes before his technical side, although he can play a bit. Big things were expected of him, but he's not quit progressed as expected. There's certainly potential there as he's still only 22.

Young yet experienced player.
Looks a very good signing.
Only thing that gets me is " Swans are a massive club" bit in the interview. Surely same sort of size as Ipswich ? I know they are league one àtm but yet another "sleeping giant"

If he's a play maker like Grimes we've just wasted a shirt number.
I can find absolutely nothing to support the claims being made for him.

Not knocking him just the hype being created for him.

Well Ipswich fans are saying hes been their best player for 2/3 years
Last year he was linked with Palace for 4/5 million and that was seen as 'too cheap'
He's a more rough and tumble Leon I'd say, great passing and dribbling stats but had nearly 30 yellow cards last season

Looks like what we’ve needed for years
 
The thing that pleases me is his age, 22. We're not signing some senior journeyman looking to pad out his pension just before he calls it a day
 
Got a feeling he's going to be a more box to box player
As for Ipswich had some glorious years but I wouldn't say a big place out on a limb like ourselves many around there follow London clubs

He may well be what we’ve been looking for and let’s hope he is, but how you can say that based in that ‘highlights’ thing is beyond me.

It’s one of the least ‘wow’ highlights reels that’s been posted on here in ages. Could have put together a better highlights reel from Clucas who was the absolute worst midfielder I’ve ever seen for the money paid.
