jamboinglasgow Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 With us coming into the last weeks of pre-season, we have learnt much about our new signings, especially our non-Scottish signings. Gomis looks a hard work in midfield and can control it, Sow looks powerful, quick and good at finishing (and is still to get up to fitness.) Bauben works really well with Gomis and Ozturk looks classy both in a football sense and non-football sense. But El Hassanoui has dropped of from what people have been talking about this coming season. This is due to him recovering from a previous operation so is having his recovery done carefully. So he feels a great unknown, all I have seen is a couple of youtube videos (which can be misleading) which show him as a technically great player who almost looks like Taouil but with more purpose in what he does (and bigger physique.) But honestly dont really know if that is a fair description of him or not. The fact that people are unsure whether he is a striker or attacking midfielder shows we are not sure what we have positionally and how Robbie will use him. And Mark De Vries rates him. So is anyone else looking forward to seeing him play? Any clearer ideas of what kind of player we have on our hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tazio Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Any clearer ideas of what kind of player we have on our hands. The type of player that has been given number 9 could be a clue as to how they want him to operate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juan Rom?n Riquelme Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Think he'll be used as a second striker. Link up man but in a European style i.e. getting the ball into his feet and spreading it out wide, playing the ball through to runners from midfield etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamboinglasgow Posted July 23, 2014 Author Share Posted July 23, 2014 done a bit of searching and found a few more videos That one has him from 6:36 onwards, and focuses on him for the rest of the game, is quite interesting (like another video seen before but from a different game.)

jamboinglasgow Posted July 23, 2014 Author Share Posted July 23, 2014 The Sow I've seen doesn't match your description. Hope I'm wrong though. He certainly looks strong and did have pace in him, but also looked like he was not near full fitness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC_92 Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 He certainly looks strong and did have pace in him, but also looked like he was not near full fitness. He's clearly strong, he's caught out two different 'keepers with his pace so far and the only time he was put through on goal for us he finished with aplomb against a good goalkeeper. I think you'd find it hard to argue with any of those adjectives based on what we've seen so far. As for El Hassnaoui, I reckon he'll play as a link between midfield and attack.

Debut 4 Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 I don`t know much about him at all but people hinting he`s an attacking midfielder. If he is i hope he brings another goal threat from that area and is a good link with the frontman. It would be good to know we have threat from various positions and not rely solely on Sow or whoever gets the nod upfront. I would also like to see the wide men chipping in far more often.

Getting the number 9 jersey points to him being.... well, a number 9. It also tells us the management think highly of him. I would have though sow would have been a shoe in for a first team number.

Ross992 Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Going on what Neilson had said the other day about his attacking options he suggested El Hassanoui was the most complete player out of all of them, able to lead the line drop in or even go out wide. I think when everyone is fit it might be him and Sow as our first choice pairing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
