SIGNED: Chris Gunter

[Pepe the Horseman]

Jesus. He's played two games. Come back after ten and judge whether he's no better than Cummings.

[JordCot]

I'd assume cummings will get a game in the cup so we may get to see the partnership with McCleary

Smack on.

I remember way back, Newport County started the season with a new midfield pairing
and within 30 seconds of their first game both had given the ball away and half the stand
was shouting, "Get him out, Harris!"

I shouted back that maybe we could give them a whole minute, eh?

[Reading4eva]

With some signings, such as Pogrebnyak and Guthrie, you can look at them and see exactly why we signed them. That's not the case with Gunter, who (to me at least) doesn't appear to be any better than Cummings. I'd be interested to see how well Cummings could link up with McCleary, if Kebe is out of the side for a while.

I rate The Gunts

[Simon's Church]

Paid back his £2.5m transfer fee in lolz alone last night.

[moonwalklikebas]

Apart from the missed header last night I was impressed with Gunter! Got forward well, showed alot of desire. Two assists. Him and mcleary looked dangerous. Its a shame his last contribution was shocking but I do rate him!

Got forward well? Every cross hit the first man! Got lucky that Koscielny spazzed one in and I'm not counting a shanked shot that got about 8 deflections before Pog scored as an assist. Got skinned everytime by Gnabry and didn't bother getting back for their 6th. He's shite.

Gtfo yourself

He was okay

Gtfo yourself

He was okay

He wasn’t, he was very poor, completely lacking as a defender, which is what he is in the team for.

Disagree, first half he kept the excellent Gnabry quiet.

Second half was a different story, but it's hard to blame him when the midfield let Arsenal wingers run from ridiculously deep at him.

Twice the player off Cummings

and please qualify how you quantify that?

can, needing two right backs not be a reason for signing him?

Does everything better than Cummings, including getting tight to wingers and not letting them turn, also physically stronger and attempts to stops crosses

Over laps with more purpose aswell, like last night for the 2nd goal

[melonhead]

im not saying cummings is brilliant, or that gunter is rubbish

i like em both

but what you are saying is utter tosh

[AthleticoSpizz]

Overlapped well but shame he was so keen to do so at 5-5 with just a couple of minutes to play! Left us with just a knackered Tabb trying to keep up with their pace on the break. Would have been interesting to see whether he would have taken a red for the team had he been able to get close enough!

twice the player, potentially a poor comment

But much stronger, and dont think we have seen the best off him yet, only thing that has been slightly suspect is his passing. Dont understand where the hate has come from
