Philogene 20:29 - Aug 23 with 1506 views | Portman_Pie | Heading toward the top of the worst ever signing in our history so far based on his a) Price b) effort and commitment in the games he’s played and c) stage he’s at as a player positionally - simply doesn’t have a clue what’s expected of a winger (for a winger) Currently making Lee Martin look like a brilliant signing. |  | | |  |

While of course you’re correct; he doesn’t look like a 23M player either. |  |

Both Clarke and Philogene together are an utter disaster. Yet KM seems to think that’s the first choice pair. If we’re lucky - we might make top half this season - but highly unlikely. |  | |  |

Yet. People seem to forget footballers are human; a price tag doesn't guarantee instant performance. His Hull and England U21 performances suggest there's plenty of talent there, it needs unlocking. I'm not sure how publicly writing him off after 10 games helps. |  |

Yeah I’ve watched a fair bit of him, I just think it’s an overpay tbh. Most villa fans agree as well. He should be good at this level us though, although not sure his natural position helps Leif bombing forward either. |  |

My thoughts exactly. The reason I have faith it will work long term is because he is so hard working and effective off the ball, its the on the ball confidence which is letting him down. This is kind of how Omari started - his off the ball work was the first thing to stand out. Philogene's pressing work against Southampton was hugely successful - must have won the ball in their half 4 or 5 times. He just needs to take his man on now when he has the ball To say he lacks effort is clearly wrong |  | |  |

Philogene on 09:49 - Aug 24 with 333 views | Nthsuffolkblue | It disappointed me the two times he was offside yesterday. However, it was only because Clarke is so low on confidence that he was passing the ball there instead of bearing down on goal himself. |  |

And was very good under Mick too for half a season. Philogene is nowhere near the worst player for us, although the price tag will make it seem that way. From what I’ve seen though so far; he absolutely has done nothing to suggest he’s worth that much here. Same with Clarke - although both were fantastic for their former clubs, so it seems like an Ipswich issue. |  |
