He lived up to the HypeI don’t remember a player getting so much attention and such high expectation before his debut as this guy
He was relatively unknown and now he’s one of the great signing of this window, for any club
Looking forward to seeing him tomorrow. Hopefully he lives up to the hype, even if that takes time
I think he has more to his game than Kante - he has a long way to go to get to Kante over a consistent period but if yesterday is the benchmark he could become the best in his position in time. Special talent.Love at first sight. Imagine if we've somehow managed to sign the next Ngolo Kante.
I think what makes him seem a bargain illustrates the difference between our recruitment and, as a random example, Spurs’. I assume we’ve followed him since before he signed for Lens and been in dialogue with his agent since he showed such promise in their first few games. That long-term focus, showing our intentions and ‘selling’ BFC to agent, who’s very active with Mailian players, and the player himself, works to secure his interest in joining us to the point when he’s apparently turned down ‘better’ offers.Early days I know, but what a player and what a bargain. He made mincemeat out of that spurs midfield.

Maybe you could educate us, rather than relying on the media team?I hope the media team can educate some with the way to pronounce his name, though – hearing san-gaargh-rey I find incredibly irritating.
A better debut than I could have imagined. All over the pitch. Good first control, fast on the turnWhat is your opinion of him now? Just interested to hear your view.
Each syllable should be ‘flat’ with equal emphasis, so san-ga-rey.Maybe you could educate us, rather than relying on the media team?
"ga" as in garage, not as in garbage?Each syllable should be ‘flat’ with equal emphasis, so san-ga-rey.
Isnt the first syllable also meant to be pronounced "son", as in gone?Each syllable should be ‘flat’ with equal emphasis, so san-ga-rey.
You could say that, as the ‘san’ is like between the a and o English sounds, closer to o in your ‘gone'. It was really the elongated emphasis on the middle syllable that irritates me… although that only applies to the correct spelling Sangaré! Sangare would be only 2 syllables: søn-gar… anyway, enough of the pronunciation semantics and I can sense Edmundo is lurking…Isnt the first syllable meant to be pronounced "son", as in gone?
Rather than "san" as in van.
Beat me to it. Song has stuck, ship has sailed...Isnt the first syllable also meant to be pronounced "son", as in gone?
Rather than "san" as in van.
And pronouncing it all 'flat' doesn't scan with his song.
Either way, it's all irrelevant.
As the song has now stuck!!![]()

I have said it before and I will say it again: Mamadou Sangare is good at playing football

Yep, any given week about something.Forest fans having a sh*t fit
Or two and a half TonalisCan't believe we only paid 80 Vitaly's for him. Should have been so many more
I think he could be as good as Essien or Kante.It's one competitive performance (plus a friendly), and I'm more willing than many to work with hyperbole BUT ... he's possibly the highest ceiling of any Brentford player I've seen. It reminded me, strangely enough, of our first year in the Prem when Eriksen came in January and you could just see the levels to his game.
None of this is to take away from the talent of our other players or the ones that have gone: Mbeumo, Watkins, etc), I just can't shake that he has virtually everything.
I heard some critiques of his passing on a recent technical football podcast; but I thought some of the angles on his passes Saturday he could access were unbelievable.
Less than half a Tonali, Shirley?Or two and a half Tonalis
Two fifths surelyOr two and a half Tonalis
Forest fans having a sh*t fit in the replies to every single tweet about the song saying they invented it first. Let them I say. I doubt there’s much else from the weekend they’re up for talking about.
