Milan Jovanovic

[Clay Davis]

Two absolutely comedic moments - smashing a shot horribly wide and then managing to execute a diving header with a straight back and completely missing the ball in the middle of their half. I'm not sure if I want him to become the new Igor or not. What are peoples initial thoughts?

He's shown some flashes of brilliance. and hints that he's got pace and can use it. Still need to see a lot more of him to convince that he's at or above the standard of 'not really good enough' wide men we've been putting up with for years.

[KD07]

Good warrior.

[Leo No.8]

Think he's bonkers - sure he'll be a very popular figure, and I think he has enough ability for it not just to be down to his insanity and commitment. He is strong as an ox, but good technically as well I think.

 

Just needed more composure the other day, but its not surprising he got a bit excited - that must have been a different experience of club football than anything he came across in Belgium!

[Stevie H]

looking forward to seeing what his left foot can do with a dead ball as it goes.

[libero]

Looks like he is going to be as mad as a bucket of frogs.

 

Love him already.

[Leo No.8]

There is a bit of Igor about him as well - just not as gormless (which is good). He gives the same kind of impression that he'd run through a wall without flinching.

I hope he isn't remotely like Igor. I hope he's a good footballer that adds something to our squad.

The diving header was Momo-esque. Thought he looked good though. I like him so far.

Yes because the former 'milanbaros5' hates gormless footballers...

I like Igor, but he was one of the worst players to ever play for us

Unless his left foot can open a can of beans, I'll be disappointed.

he was raised in serbia. he never saw a tin of beans until he moved to belgium aged 21.

[Chili Palmer]

I love him. He looks nuts.

we've had much worse than Igor.

at times, Igor looked pretty good. not least in the 2005 CL run.

from Carragher, talking about his son's new shirt:

 

 

"You do not want a defender on the back of your shirt," joked Carragher Snr. "He normally has Gerrard or now Cole. He did have [Milan] Jovanovic, but he had his number changed, so we had to go back to the shop and get the shirt altered."

[Gravy]

I think he could become a cult figiure a la Rosenthal - he even runs like him

[FakeNewsBear]

i cant wait to see him go up against terry............ jov looks like a serbian warlord whose fond of the odd rusty nail sandwich

[mrjunk]

Impressive run through the centre of the Arsenal team. good battering ram.

ha ha, Milan had just topped the Euro 2004 goalscoring charts, so I was a bit swayed by that...what a disappointment he ended up, though he did his bit in istanbul

The way he swatted Diaby away whilst dribbling alongside him was immense

f*** it. If Carra is not backing the boycott on buying merchandise neither am I. He must know something

[RedHarvest]

I like him, he's lively and a fighter. He's a faster more bonkers Kuyt

Never.

 

 

Jovanovic looks like a good signing. I burst out laughing when that Arsenal player tried to shoulder barge him and ended up sprawled out on the floor like Spinks.

[Stew F]

He also gave the Kop his own little ripple of applause after he won us a corner in the second half........
