Negan Posted September 15, 2018 Report Share Posted September 15, 2018 Again impressive today. He is, in my opinion, the best academy product to burst through at his age since I've been watching. Reid took until he was 24/25 and Bryan had pretty much had up and down moments. It's still early on but if Kelly can keep this level of performance up then, should we not get promoted, one of the bigger prem teams will surely come knocking. 19 years old and looking like he can hold his own at this level. Think this might be one of those "enjoy him whilst we can" type of players as I'm sure plenty have now cast their eyes over him. Keep up the good work Lloyd!

CHAZ MICHAELS Posted September 15, 2018 Report Share Posted September 15, 2018 A class act. He just looks so comfortable at this level. Going to the top in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCFC11 Posted September 15, 2018 Report Share Posted September 15, 2018 Big clubs have been sniffing around LK for well over a year so I’ve been told and going on his performances for the 1st team so far it’s not hard to see why. He’ll play at the top for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobBobSuperBob Posted September 15, 2018 Report Share Posted September 15, 2018 Has to have a good chance of Full International honours at some point in the future if he keeps progressing Him and Fry at Middlesbrough might make quite a pairing or more likely part of a three , in the future Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WesM Posted September 15, 2018 Report Share Posted September 15, 2018 Forgive me if you’ve heard me say this before, but about 4 years ago, I had nothing to do one afternoon so went to watch the U-18’s in some meaniningless fixture. A 15 year old Lloyd Kelly was playing centre back that day. I remember leaving the ground and calling my mate to say I’ve seen an absolute star of the future. He was very skinny and slight then, not the filled out beast that he is today, but he won every header, every tackle and never gave the ball away. He looked so comfortable against lads who were significantly bigger and stronger than him, he glided around the pitch. He was incredible and I will never forget it. He could go to the very top.

HoldenBall Posted September 15, 2018 Report Share Posted September 15, 2018 I like how he's a natural left back, unlike Bryan who there was still debate from the day he left whether he was best as a left back or a left winger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw him three years ago versus Taunton Town and entirely agree. He had another steady game today. He will go far, preferably at City but I suspect somewhere else. I also predict he will get a full England cap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously the posters are being realistic in a situation of where we are now. However, it would be great if our outstanding young talents mixed with shrewd investment, Johnson's management and Lansdown's backing can take us to the Premiership. Then we would be in a much stronger position to hold onto those stars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the moment we are playing well as a team and I think all will be enjoying this, I don’t see us lurching from good to bad but much more steadier this season. It would be somewhat ironic if we had our most successful season in a while without our players we have just sold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1960maaan Posted September 16, 2018 Report Share Posted September 16, 2018 I said towards the end of last year he was already a better FB than Bryan, positionally a big improvement. Yesterday he made a couple of mistakes, and I point this out because he make very few and you tend to notice them. He will only get better and we had a conversation midway through the 2nd half, there is an international player there if things go his way and he carries on the way he's going.

Drew Peacock Posted September 16, 2018 Report Share Posted September 16, 2018 He was a joy to watch. Managed Sheffield U's experienced strikers very well, always made room to receive the ball when we were in possession, brought the ball out with pace and put in a couple of good crosses.

Boston Red Posted September 16, 2018 Report Share Posted September 16, 2018 He should have played all last season. Away at Watford a year ago when we won 3-2 he set up a beauty for Bobby Reid and the Watford fans were saying "their left back looks good". The sale of Bryan for 6 million and Magnússon for 2 million now looks like brilliant business. Last season we were 3-0 up at home to Sunderland and 2-0 up away to Leeds. 4 goals from the left back position later we drew both games and dropped 4 points. Add in the goal Bryan gave away at Bolton (another lost point) and it is surely clear that Kelly should have been playing all last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meh Posted September 16, 2018 Report Share Posted September 16, 2018 Best compliment at the moment is he is keeping Da Silva out of his natural left back spot as he maybe small but he is a talent who would start for most teams in this league.
