Stolen from a dane on facebook when asked about Amartey;He's just started to follow LCFC on his twitter which is pretty telling.
From what I can gather, he is equally effective in central defence or midfield. Seems to have been mostly used as a defensive midfielder recently. Quick, strong and hungry. Good deal potentially.

Gutted
Perfect for our style of play (as is Berahino)
Opportunity lost
If he were wanted by us we would have got him by now.Have to hope that CR has something else (better?) up his sleeve but I do believe Austin would have been ideal in our system
If he were wanted by us we would have got him by now.
£12m a few months back suggests he was.
