| Is Emersonn less raw than we maybe first thought? 14:13 - Aug 24 with 1731 views | Wallingford_Boy | Certainly looked the part on Saturday. Maybe its not a new starting 9 we need, maybe its someone as back up to him? |  |

| Is Emersonn less raw than we maybe first thought? on 14:37 - Aug 24 with 1453 views | ThatMuhrenCross | I remember the Toulouse fans, when we signed him, saying that he was big, athletic and a physical presence, but wasn't particularly technical/skillful. I'm sure the Sunderland defence would beg to differ on that - he left one or two of them on their a**es on more than one occasion! Sure, he's not Neymar (or even Enciso to be fair), but in terms of a Premier League striker, he really fits the bill for me! |  |

| Is Emersonn less raw than we maybe first thought? on 14:40 - Aug 24 with 1404 views | Daninthecampo | I'm already worried about being able to keep hold of him next summer! Seems to have all the attributes he needs for the prem but still lots to come! |  | |  |
| Is Emersonn less raw than we maybe first thought? on 14:43 - Aug 24 with 1379 views | _CliveBaker_ | I'm still a bit horny at his run down the left in front of the Cobbold. Very reminiscent of Delap actually, in our opening game against Liverpool in exactly the same spot. He's raw, but its not always a bad thing. He's fearless, and a bit of naivety isn't always a bad thing. Needs some help though, need another 1 in. |  | |  |
| Is Emersonn less raw than we maybe first thought? on 15:12 - Aug 24 with 1196 views | vilanovablue | I read elsewhere that we weren't the only team interested but nipped in early which is why the price ended up being surprisingly high so we could secure him. I see him as a player with potentially a very high ceiling given his age and physique. |  | |  |

Hull were after him weren’t they? |  |

If he carries on the way he has been, last 3 games, I expect us to be turning down bids this summer... |  | |  |
| Is Emersonn less raw than we maybe first thought? on 00:02 - Aug 25 with 658 views | armchaircritic59 | For me, just for the time being, he'd be absolutely great as a 2nd no 9 coming on after about 60/70 minutes. Not a guy I'd want to face coming on with fresh legs, when if I was central defender, mine wouldn't be! Looks to have a bright future. |  | |  |

Yes, they bid over 20M but we went higher. |  |

Aye, not sure we'd spend £25m or so on a 2nd choice striker. |  |
