Leveller Posted August 27, 2019 Report Share Posted August 27, 2019 I see FH has gone out on loan to Colchester today. Not a huge story or surprise, but I can’t see it mentioned elsewhere on OTIB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some CTFC fans keen to write him off....although one then mentioned Taylor Moore I do like that the club us giving pretty much all its young players every chance of making it. Hinds given a 3 year deal last summer to take him to 2021. He still only 20. Hope it works out for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 27, 2019 Report Share Posted August 27, 2019 I thought in the Plymouth game where he scored he could not hold it up at all. That's not a harsh criticism, but that goal and then that next goal against Watford probably made fans think he was a lot higher level than he was. And then he went to Cheltenham, barely played. Wrexham was it? Barely played. Then he went to Bath and looked good, scored some goals. But still looked too lightweight. Not particularly good at all the things a striker needs to do. Still very young and a long way to go. Saw quite a bit of Bath last season and he didn't look too much above that National League South level. I imagine he will be a late developer like Bobby. He does have very good pace and can hit a ball. Just hope he can get a lot stronger, which might be all that is missing to develop the rest of his game.

Hopefully he can get a good loan spell, get a few goals and come back to AG to firing on all cylinders and give Johnson a headache. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leveller Posted August 28, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2019 He’s only 20 and he has been in the spotlight more than many of our younger players, because we paid a fee for him at 18 and he scored a couple of goals in early league cup appearances. Had he come through the academy and not had this publicity, we wouldn’t be talking about him as some sort of failure. Plenty of time yet. In reality he’s just following the process of lower league loans at this stage. Not everybody can be like Massengo at 18. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dullmoan Tone Posted August 29, 2019 Report Share Posted August 29, 2019 The problem for these players and I include Saiko Jenneh, Freddie and Semenyo in this group is I doubt we will ever play them enough to give them the Championship experience to prove themselves. I know it takes courage to select them rather than buy in pedigree like Afobe, but I can't wonder why we are giving these lads with potential, extended contracts when there is so little game time. Is it just for our home grown quota? You only have to look at Eisa now banging them in for Peterborough, after we paid a decent fee and then virtually no game time whatsoever, to wonder if we have our strikers development all wrong?

Just happened to notice whilst looking at the old Fred thread on him... He may well have got himself out of favour there for non footballing reasons but they did also have quite a few loanees in forward positions at the time. He's definetly got something about him or they wouldn't of extended his contract as they have. Best of luck to him, hope he bangs a few in.

So you would have gone with a forward line of just Semenyo, Diedhiou and Weimann for the next 4 months? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
