    From what I’ve seen so far I’d say he’s a box to box midfielder. Definitely the kind of player we’ve lacked.

    I’ve been very impressed by him in the 2 sub appearances he has made. Gives us great competition in midfield areas by the looks.

    My guess is we’re trying to sell Russell as he only has one year left on his deal & we can’t give him the contract he expects.

    Vimal is so much more mobile than Russell, especially defensively. Hes like a chihuahua. He gets every and has so much energy. Russell is technically excellent, he's so good on the ball, but he lacks severely off it. Yes he makes some interceptions and tackles, but as soon as they actually make it past him, that's where the issues are imo. Would love to keep him though because was a weapon he can be for us.
