BessexRED Posted May 6, 2019 Report Share Posted May 6, 2019 Been linked with him a few times, again today. I can’t imagine we’d want him if Palmer signs? He’d be another promising youngster from the lower leagues that doesn’t get much game time. 23 years old and 15 goals 7 assists from midfield though, not bad.

JoeAman08 Posted May 6, 2019 Report Share Posted May 6, 2019 I don’t mind these transfers. Brownhill, Adelakun and Szmodics. They are low risk and high reward. Yes every bit of money counts for us but turning a free transfer or compensation into a 5-10m player is worth it. Brownhill when sold will cover 5 of these types of players. I haven’t seen much of him but as you said 15 goals and 7 assists is pretty good. Can easily have him and Palmer(or any AM signed) as he’d probably be on the old 12-18 months fast track. I reckon Adelakun would have featured much more without his injury so keep the faith in these transfers. Prefer them to the Engvall and Eisa ones anyway!

Colchester's form is streaky like ours has been under LJ, but it seems as though they only play well when Szmodics does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZiderEyed Posted May 7, 2019 Report Share Posted May 7, 2019 Sort of player who ends up at Peterborough before going for 3-4m to Derby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBFC II Posted May 7, 2019 Report Share Posted May 7, 2019 He’ll be 24 in September. Looks like a good player but we’d have to hope he kicked on straight away otherwise some questions would be asked like Eisa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have to remember that this is league two though. Can you imagine what Palmer would do in that league, he’d rip it up! If we’re signing this kid from Colchester, we’ll be taking a gamble.

Every signing is a gamble though, even if it's a proven player. Ask Man Utd about Sanchez. Or Barca about Coutinho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerseybean Posted May 18, 2019 Report Share Posted May 18, 2019 Looks like a good bit of business on a free: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sammie_Szmodics From the clubs perspective....With LJ’s coaching skills he might mature into a quality player for us, if however he improves, but not enough, we should be able to sell him on at a profit. For him.....joining us provides a golden opportunity to demonstrate what he can do at a higher level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
