He's Irish though...they don't exactly receive the warmest welcome wherever they go and there really isn't a shortage of jokes on the Irish. But I guess even the Irish need to dish once in a while.
Cautiously optimistic about him. I think he'll play most games if he can stay fit.
I also think he will be one of the most impressive signings. No pressure at all on him except to be a decent youngster, no need to score goals and he's not being compared to all time great Pavel Pavel Nedved Nedved.
