Surprised not to see an article on the loan signing on Tuesday. Assume everyone is unimpressed or there is an apathy outbreak to challenge COVID.
So am emerging from my voyeuristic shell (I generally read as you guys are much more informed than I am) to see if anyone has any opinions. I remember seeing him play for Fulham but it did not leave a lasting impression. Assume he replaces Under but would have preferred a loaned decent centre back.
Lookman Loaned

Underwhelming might be close to the mark. Mind you, so was Riyad Mahrez when he first arrived. It appears Lookman’s preferred position is cutting in from the left wing but he’s not going to replace Barnes. Despite all the talk about Berardi I wasn’t overly impressed during the Euros and people were talking about £40m. Maduake seems a better bet but not before next summer. If Lookman is able to adapt it could well be a different story.

Could go either way, thought he looked quite dangerous for Fulham in a poorish team but is he just another squad filler?

His penalty was one of the highlights of last season. Hopefully he grows a bit more mature for you

At least they've tried to get a winger. We'll see how he gets on.

Not the long term solution we needed for the right, but more of a back up for Barnes, as above thought he looked decent enough in a poor Fulham side.
I remember him being particularly good against us when they beat us at home.
