Honestly no. However it is reported that he is very highly regarded. French press reckon he is the best in his position (Ball Winning Defensive Midfielder) in the French league and believe Palace have signed him for a bargain fee. Obviously all here-say but this is a signing that I had hoped for and excites me. Yes, me too. I'm honestly not trying to do him down or put the mockers on the deal. Hoping he's a resounding success and stays for many years.

The media was right with whom many had said we was interested in signing him in April. Only person I ever take notice of when it comes to Football Transfers is Fabrizio Romano. Yeah, he is usually on the money. I'm just enjoying our current spending power.

I have a feeling he doesn't yet know the love that will be coming his way. He's going to have a great time here. Having watched his first interview I think I love him already!

I watched Lens last game, he looked class and worked really well in tandem with Fofana who is probably as good if not better. Shame we couldn’t get both

If it takes him a little while to bed in then it is only to be expected. Can we play a midfield 5 of him, Hughes, Eze, Zaha and Olise that converts to 4-3-3 when attacking or do we think he will need more defensive support?

Keep to the 433 Johnstone Clyne, Anderson, Guehi, Mitchell, Hughes Doucoure Olise Mateta Zaha

I feel we still need quality cover for Mitchell but a cheeky loan of Wan Bissaka would allow Ward to play over there, assuming Ferguson manages to get himself injured again. Need another striker too.

I have never heard of him let alone seen him play. Is he any good?

How long does it take for Doucoure's international clearance to come through.

Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!! |

Has he signed yet?
