dec666 Posted January 31, 2014 Author Share Posted January 31, 2014 If we've paid a fee for him surely the contract length has an option in our favour. If he is one for next season, and he plays well, he'd already be in the last year of his contract. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

singe Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 This bit is crucial for us! He may start!! "To be honest, as long as I’m in the attacking third – and the starting XI to begin with – then that’s all that matters.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slystallone Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 From a mate who is county fan (only missed about 10 games in the last 5 years and I do trust his judgement) "Head and shoulders the best player we have had for a while, very quick - knows where the net is. Has something about him. Whether he can jump straight into your team I'm not 100%, but playing with better players I'm sure he will be at least a league one striker" "I bet you got him for a bag of frazzels too" Just done the same thing with the County at work. haven't got anything to direct quote as I spoke to him, but the gist was that he's very pacey, and has surprising composure in front of goal for his age. He's been played out wide - to use his pace really - this season, and has still got 5 or so goals fro them. Said he doubts he's ready for 1st team straight away, but with better facilities (I laughed at that!) and better coaching, and working with better players in training, he would think he'll develop nicely. So - at the least, we've got another development project to work on; who could well grow into a decent player for us. And for this season, we have an option, should LJ wish, to throw a lad on during the late stages of games, who has pace to burn & can run at tired defenders; and see what happens?

JoshOWTB Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 *for the youth team* If he knows where the net his he has half a chance compared the rest of the team who can't seem to get a shot on target. I can see him being on the bench on Saturday and hopefully he'll want to work hard and secure a regular first team place Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshOWTB Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 When? This season! He only has 5 goals to catch up on... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarryBosch Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 The more I read the better a signing this looks. Chuck him straight in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross2509 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 This sounds like a top class signing, love how we as a club are actually starting to build with the future in mind as well. Clubs like Peterborough, Coventry etc are constantly signing players from the lower leagues and building for the future. Don't understand why some are negative about these type of signings?! Good move. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mart1973 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 I've got a mate who is linked with county & when I texted him to ask if the lad's any good, he replied. "Yes. F###ers. I'm going to text our CEO to make sure you've f###ing paid for him too. At least 100k I reckon." That said, he is a couple of divisions below us.

jsslatic Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 (edited) Good luck to him. He was clearly too good for our level. I was worried when he got injured that we'd struggle for goals, but Lordy has changed things round a bit and we're doing fine without him. I don't agree that he was 'too good'. Promising IMO but nothing more than that. He'd previously expressed a desire to go full time, which is something we couldn't offer him. He's raw as evidenced by his control, one moment superb then totally absent. Good luck to the lad. It's no surprise how he was ever playing for us is beyond belief will have a great career if he keeps his feet on the ground. He produced some great goals this season glad we got to watch him a little bit. He will certainly be the best player we have had for the next few years at least S***. I haven't gone much this year... He was one of the few reasons I could think of for going. No surprise, still disappointing. We all know we got peanuts for him. OUCH !

Stoney Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 You Know what I say let him have a go - put him in tomorrow - let's face it he really can't do any worse than the other strikers based on current form. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rudemedic Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Some of his best bits By that I think there is a player in there, we just need to ensure it's us that get it out.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsslatic Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Looks like some decent finishing there although obviously can't see any he's missed! Comical defending by number 5 for the second goal on there... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BP1960 Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 (edited) Can use both feet, that's a big asset, how many times do we hear of strikers (even at the top level) missing chances because 'it was on their wrong foot'.
