Piero Hincapie: Yo Piero

[boonthegoon]

Berta and Arsenal found a workaround: a loan in which both Arsenal and Leverkusen hold the option to trigger a permanent deal. If Arsenal fail to activate it, Leverkusen can do so, forcing a compulsory purchase. The only way a permanent deal doesn’t happen is in the unlikely event neither club want it. The same arrangement was made for Kiwior’s move to Porto.

From gunnerblog.

So it's not based on any conditions. Either arsenal or Leverkusen can trigger it. So it's basically done permanently.

Not a fan of beard, looks like he dipped his chin in an oil leak

He looks like the 3rd Menendez brother

He says his best position is CB

Quite sure every one of our fullbacks would say their best position is somewhere else on the pitch

With how Calafiori performing nope he won't but we can rotate between both specially when we got 3 games a week we can also afford to let Gabriel rest and start one of them as CB in some games

the chance for hincapie get enough minute play then he can become 2nd option like rotate with big gabi and rotate with calafiori

so not only rotate with calafiori at left back

Where do ppl think he ranks compared to Ait Nouri and Kerkez?

Both better fullbacks

Very happy to have signed another talented left-footed CB called [insert name]. He will bolster our defence and provide good cover for Gabriel. Hopefully he can compete with [insert current starting left back] and make that position his own.

"So Riou what would you like to say to our 100th centre back/full back hybrid since we last won a trophy?"

... welcome to The Assna Piero!

Ideally he shouldn't be compared with them,.given he's a cb.

Had to laugh at Arseblog’s description of Piero’s priorities on his return from international duty…

“It was a good night for Ecuador though, as they beat Argentina 1-0 with Piero Hincapie playing the full 90 of what seems to have been an eventful game that saw both sides finish with 10 men. He’ll now return to London, and it’ll be interesting to see if he makes the squad for Saturday’s game. He only arrived on deadline day before flying off on international duty, so he’s probably got lots to sort out. Such as:

• Somewhere to live
• All his stuff
• His collection of early edition Spiderman comics
• Steve, his chinchilla”

Totally forgot we signed this guy.

He’s a great player but the only way he makes sense is if Arteta intentionally starts rotating and not waiting for one to get injured first, which will be great.

Already scrapping the little rat MacAllister:



Really feels like he’ll be one of our better signings. Got that dawg in him.

Calling another man Daddy is highly questionable but well put it down to cultural differences and let this one slide.

Yeah but calling someone papito seems pretty funny at least

What am I missing? MacAllister going at him and Hincapie retreating.

+100 Aura to our bench today. Intimidating.
