The consensus amongst supporters in New England is that he could see time playing on either wing, his best chance to start coming wide-left.

I think he could be a success over there, I wish him the best anyway. He's no man of the century but he's got a bit of class :)

I don't think anyone's looking for him to be a miracle-worker,but he does seem to possess a background and set of skills that would appeal to the sensibilities of Steve Nicol and now Paul Mariner (new Asst. Coach).

Sounds like he might enjoy a change of pace anyway, and he might be surprised at the standard of play here - might be a good personal challenge as well.
