Kodjias Wrist Posted April 8, 2021 Report Share Posted April 8, 2021 Him and Scott could be first team players in the next couple of seasons and perhaps looking short term, they could fill some of the gaps of the OOC players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lew-T Posted April 8, 2021 Report Share Posted April 8, 2021 The lad seems very mature for 19. Both his personality and looking at how he’s played so far... I think he’ll fit into Championship lifestyle pretty comfortably, whenever he gets the chance properly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

old_eastender Posted April 9, 2021 Report Share Posted April 9, 2021 Hope we have him under contract for more than just end of next season, anyone know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exAtyeoMax Posted April 9, 2021 Report Share Posted April 9, 2021 I thought he was excellent on his debut, I didn’t see the last two games so can’t comment on those. I can’t wait to see him play more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The author obviously rates his own OTT phraseology but he's trying too hard to look clever afaic. Not Sam's fault, he seems an exciting young player with a great attitude and loads of potential, and I hope he fulfils it at AG. Can't help but think though there are many similarities, in background, youth honours, potential, and style of play, to Wes Burns - who I personally (over?) rated at City but his limit appears to be L1.

I thought Wes had more chance of succeeding at this level as a striker rather than wide man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malago Posted April 10, 2021 Report Share Posted April 10, 2021 I know he’s only a youngster, but thought he looked lightweight today. IMHO a summer in the gym building up his upper body strength wouldn’t go amiss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mozo Posted April 10, 2021 Report Share Posted April 10, 2021 I think it's clear that Pearson and Conway are a fair bit behind Massengo in terms of being Championship ready. Good attitude though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lad did well, monster step up in level, but great experience. He will learn. I really hope 3/4 of these lads are in the first team squad of 22/24 players next year. I know many say loan them out, but working with the first team day in day out is also a good education (Kelly). Sam looks quite strong already for example, will only get better over next couple fo years. I like the hunger of the younger players too. There is also a danger you can demotivate them by sending them on loan having tasted Champ football. This is where NP and BT need to earn their corn and decide the right path for them. It is nice to hear NP talk so positively about them too. Easy to play down with comments like “still got a lot to learn”, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Skin Posted April 11, 2021 Report Share Posted April 11, 2021 Hope these young players get their chance. One of the joys of going to games is watching young players come through the ranks. Well done Sam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, nothing better than seeing an Academy player playing for City, I think it gives the crowd a boost. Always nice to say things like “I was there when x made their debut”, etc. @billywedlockyou are right, he doesn’t waste words. He can see the promise in these lads.

Agree, I learned absolutely nothing after reading it. Liked Sam Pearson yesterday, got on the ball, bit of strength & obviously a team player. Very promising first start. Interesting that Holden had Owura Edwards into his plans whereas NP has gone for this lad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
