Davefevs Posted June 19, 2019 Report Share Posted June 19, 2019 BBC Cambridgeshire stated they’d spoken to Darren Ferguson to confirm they’d agreed fee for both the Colchester players.

From reading OTIB I can only assume that not signing anyone today will relegate us to the Western League, and if no one is signed tomorrow then the world will end. On top of that we'll get a 400 point deduction and our entire squad will be given a 12 month ban from football as well as the club being put under an embargo. Really !!!!!

And if they’re good enough they stay in or around the team, as with most teams/clubs, they’re a lots of lads that don’t make it at a level Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've commented regularly on how good their recruitment has been, but one of their supporters wrote about all the failures too....than average fans of other clubs don't see. We see the Hugill's and Robinson's, but aren't aware of all the others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 22, 2019 Report Share Posted June 22, 2019 Just been watching quite a few games of Colchester highlights and this guy really does look levels above every other player on the pitch. Only highlights, but he really does look a classy player. Really hope we get him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have seen a few clips and he looks like he could be a sort of poacher type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Number 10, but doesn't drift too deep, in behind but close to his strike partner rather than dropping far back into midfield. He seems very different to Palmer in his work rate, movement and seems a lot more tenacious a bit like Taylor. I think we may sign him and Palmer and look to go more 4411 with those 2 competing for the number 10 role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was saying the same to the guys on twitter who produce those City videos....although thought Szmodics picks a better pass (albeit 2 leagues lower). Not often that we City fans would get excited by a League 2 player, but he is one that if he can make the step-up (Big If) might be a great signing. Without getting into a Weimann v Reid debate (), I do think we missed Reid’s pest like buzzing around last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
