    Not on the last few showings he’s not. He was massively disappointing in the home leg, very naive, and largely ineffective last night. There’s undoubted potential, but he’s got a hell of a lot to learn, and I would say he’s not yet good enough to play premier league football yet.

    Still hope we can sign him permanently mind.

    Think Ivan Benjamin Elijah Toney (25 years old). Then think Dike in 4-5 years' time!

    On the last two showings no but at the same time the two lads marking him are also probably worth more than £10m.

    At 20 years old he’s got loads of potential & £10m is loose change for a prospect for a premier league side.

    I wouldn’t pay more than £5m for him, although I do hope we can make his stay permanent, and I think we have a good chance to do just that If we mean business and want to kick on. He would earn us ££££££

    I really like him but he’s got loads of potential to develop but for now that’s all it is, potential so no he’s not

    can not believe this thread, he had zero service, not one good ball played into him in both legs,he was battling away against 2 defenders with his back to the goal most times, dragged down 9 times out of ten and never given any protection from the Ref, in both games and now he is 5hit, wtf !

    Only 20 loads of potential like already said nothing to feed off both games. Teams will take a gamble for that sort of money its peanuts to top flight teams.

    I never said he was ****, I am just questioning the price tag being talked about in the media. Obviously we don’t know how much we have agreed with Orlando, but it won’t be more than £3m tops!

    No,he needs at least 1 if not more years football education in Europe. I think he is overrated, there is potential but far from the finished article.

    Yes if you can afford to buy potential for 3/4 years down the line.
    No if you can't.

    The potential is there but it’s raw. He needs to learn game craft. At the highest level he just won’t be allowed to get away with being a battering ram. Guehi had him in his pocket. However he also needs service, and frankly our service into him over two legs was $hite. Add those two things to his game and I think he could do brilliant things.

    He was ragged all over in the first game to no protection whatsoever and in the second half yesterday it was much the same with less of an actual battle, as though he didn’t expect to have any success.

    Is he a £10million player? To be honest, if we were selling, probably not. But he’s much better than players who’ve been sold for similar, and has a massive future if he works hard. I’ve seen nothing to suggest he wont.

    I don't think £10m buys the finished article at the highest level.

    Who was the last Striker bought by a PL team for £10 million + for potential only?
