Brumstopdogs Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 Scored more headed in goal in the last 2 seasons than anyone in the top 4 tiers of English football. Get the delivery right and he can be a Rudy good player for us... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam3773 Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 Really good player, even against PL opposition. Friend supports Blackburn so seen him play a few times. Big fan of this signing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BleedClaretAndBlue Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 Think he will do well And also think his main chant in the terraces when he scores will be "Rudy, Rudy" like the mancs do with Rooney. Think thats what they did at Bburn last season anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob182 Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 I'm guessing tomorrow will be too soon for Gestede (and Veretout), simply because they haven't even trained with the team once. I'd like to be wrong though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 From looking at his goals reel he reminds me of Andy Carroll. What I like about it is him and Carroll are two of the few forwards remaining who actually head the ball properly rather than many who just let it hit their head which loops hopelessly over the bar. As long as Bacuna and Amavi get crosses in we'll continue to have forwards to get on the end of them. He's going to be a weapon bringing off the bench in last 20 minutes and could well be a starter later on in the season. Will be a big crowd favourite aswell with his name.

Mark Albrighton Posted July 31, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted July 31, 2015 Late to the party here, but welcome Rudy! Having watched last season's goals it's clear he knows how to use his noggin. Some great headers last season. Seems a really good price for him too. I think he'll start as our main forward and we'll go from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJ_Villain Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 Is his name pronounced Guest-ed-day? If so, hows this? Gest-ed-e Now our troubles seem so far away We're not the half arsed club we used to be Oh we believe, in Gest-e-de! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looks absolutely determined get his head on balls . I haven't seen too many more players who are so maniacal in the air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginko Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 I'm guessing tomorrow will be too soon for Gestede (and Veretout), simply because they haven't even trained with the team once. I'd like to be wrong though! You're probably right, but it's only a friendly after all. No harm in throwing them in unless they've literally not trained at all for a few weeks, which I doubt very much. The OS did mention on one of the Veretout stories that after going around BMH and VP for photo shoots he went back to preparing for tomorrow's friendly, or pretty much words to that effect. I'd like to see them both in action since I'm going to the game tomorrow. It's been a long time since I've been this excited for the Villa 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ponky Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 Most of his headers in that video seem to come from crosses from the left side. He and Monsieur Amavi just might have the makings of a beautiful friendship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
