Some settle here, some don't.
There is a good player in there, but I think he should go home.

How long should you give a foreign player to settle though?

I may be wrong but I believe he was still staying in the Hilton by the end of the season.

Give him another 12 months to judge
 
He has a very good left foot on him, but don't think he's quite up to the Premier leauge yet.
I think if he played a more advanced role he could be alright.
 
Not sure what the source for this story is. Can’t find anything in the Spanish press about, although Real Sociedad apparently made an offer to buy him last summer at about the same time he came to us. Sounds like a journalist rehashing old news.

Will he get a run of games tho?

If he wants to play most weeks, then Spain it is.
If he want's to stay in the Hilton and play in a couple of cup games, then fine.

If I was a pro footballer, I would want to be playing every week.

He will get more game time I think. If he hadn’t have got injured himself he would have played the last 7-8 due to Daniels injury.
 
Slightly OT but why do people always describe left footed players as having a great left foot but never the same about right footed players right foot?
 
I think Rico looked really good as a wingback in a back 5 with less defensive responsibility. As a lb in a four never looked comfortable, he does have a great cross on him and a bit of pace though. If used correctly think he could be a great player for us.

This all day long,i said to my lad if we arent playing a back five we should play him as an out and out winger,as he looks good going forward but poor as a defender.

Because if I described a right footed player as having an absolute want in his left boot, I be called a moron
