00:00Look, he needs work, of course.
00:02There were moments in pre-season where his crossing wasn't particularly great.
00:07He got into some really good positions and needed to improve.
00:11But I'm pleased that he was able to show a bit against City
00:13because we said this before the City game,
00:16he could have offered us fantastic odds on Keanu Hoover
00:19starting against Man City a few months ago,
00:22and we would never have taken it.
00:24So for him to be there, it was a major surprise.
00:26And for him to take that opportunity to some extent,
00:28in the context and circumstance of a damaging defeat,
00:32it's great for him personally,
00:34and great that Vito Pereira is backing him or publicly backing him
00:37to say, look, he's going to stick around and I like him.
00:40He's going to be with us this season.
00:42Yeah, and as you say, Wolves needed to bring another player in.
00:45Look, Nelson Smedo's gone.
00:46They needed someone in, firstly, to compete with Keanu Hoover,
00:50but perhaps start ahead of him,
00:53which is probably only fair and right for this team going forward.
00:56That player looks like, if he is going to start ahead of Hoover,
01:02he's the player that's just arrived in Jackson Tatua.
01:05I think I'm pronouncing that correctly.
01:07I was going to say, I was going to let you to pronounce,
01:08I had no interest in pronouncing his surname,
01:10let alone spell it or write it very quickly in a tweet.
01:13Look, same ages as Hoover.
01:15Comes in with a decent bit of experience,
01:17having played in Italy and played regularly,
01:19supposedly very fast,
01:21having won the award last season for the fastest player in the Serie A,
01:26the Italian top flight,
01:27around 36 kilometres an hour.
01:29He managed to clock in,
01:30which is a little bit slower than me and you,
01:32but not too bad.
01:33But look, if they can bring someone in,
01:36that's going to offer a bit of competition,
01:37perhaps, as I say, to be a starter,
01:38because if Hoover's ready for that,
01:40I'm not quite sure,
01:41but they needed to bring that in that area.
01:44So really important signing,
01:46whether either of them are an improvement
01:48or as good as Nelson Samedo remains to be seen.
01:52If they're an adequate replacement or not,
01:53it's difficult to say.
