This lad is very very much growing on me...
He has some monster shoes to fill and so far he hasn't done bad at all...

I'm really impressed with him so far. A lot of fans were, as you'd expect, calling him the "cheap option" after we didn't sign David Raya, but he's been working out very well.

Can't agree more mate...
Pleasantly surprised... we all saw what Raya could do, and this lad was another one who I didn't know existed... (seems to be happening a lot recently)
Love that he and the defence seem to have a great bond, he can kick a ball without looking like his legs are not connected to his brain and that he has a bit of the lunatics about him which all great keepers need IMO.

I was in that camp to be honest. Not because he was cheap, more because Raya had already been up against the Kane's and Haalands of this league and done incredibly well.
I'm glad to see Vicario doing well though (Obviously). He looked shaky in the first game but that was to be expected. Since then he has made several very challenging saves, passes well, giving the defense confidence to push forward and best of all he loves a goal lol!!
As @Yid said I've never heard of him either but he has been a great acquisition so far, as have the rest of our signings.

And to think of the bitching from some when we signed Vicario over the joker that is David Raya.

Mate, I had no idea who the lad was... never heard of him.
I'd say we went cheap and got lucky... or we actually scouted a real talent... maybe bits of the two?

Fuck me, this is the kind of passion you want from someone you sign .. "I would have signed in blood and come on foot from Italy"

Wasn't sold on him like alot of folk when we signed him as there were 2 premier league keepers looking moves and I'd never heard of him, but he has been a phenomenal signing and whoever scouted him should get a pay rise.
Always wondered could we replace Hugo's wonder saves and so far this fella has been pulling off 1 or 2 per game.... and he has feet.... and he says shit as above!
