The 23-year-old Czech arrived on a two-year deal from Slovan Liberec for an undisclosed fee - and comes with a reputation for aggression. Gecov said: "The Premier League was always my goal - it suits my style and I turned down clubs in Germany and Holland to come here. "I'm a hard worker and I like a fast game, and yes I like to tackle - to get stuck in - as you say. "In my country, they say the red ants always attack the black ants, so maybe there's some truth in the idea of ginger-haired players being aggressive." Gecov, who began his career at Slavia Prague, was named in the team of the tournament at the European Under-21 Championships this summer.
