Popular Post Silvio Dante Posted March 12, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted March 12, 2022 Not going to go OTT on hyperbole, but that was a very strong debut. Solid, played a man who was quicker than him very intelligently and didn’t let much past. Very good today (as were both Atkinson and Klose) Done himself no harm there. 30 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very calm performance against a speed merchant. Like to see more of him, did his chances no harm of another start Edited March 12, 2022 by bexhill reds 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wiltshire robin Posted March 12, 2022 Report Share Posted March 12, 2022 I was sceptical when I saw he was starting but thought he was very solid and went about his role very nicely . Fair play to the lad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazred Posted March 12, 2022 Report Share Posted March 12, 2022 No reason he shouldn't keep his place based on that. Did well today. He's not all about the headers either for a big man, more mobile than you'd expect. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed, hyperbole wouldn't be appropriate, but he certainly didn't look at all out of place. Decent performance I thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pongo88 Posted March 12, 2022 Report Share Posted March 12, 2022 City signed him from Bath so, even if he doesn’t have a long career at City, it shows that good players are out there in non league. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excellent in the tackle and can pass too. Made Khadra resort to theatrics and he was rightly booked. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davefevs Posted March 12, 2022 Report Share Posted March 12, 2022 Quite quick when he gets into his stride too. But like Flint in that respect. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gimme Shelton Posted March 12, 2022 Report Share Posted March 12, 2022 Having seen his 45 mins at Forest I wasn't worried at all. Reminds me a bit of Mark Shail who came from non league and looked at home straight away. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DT The Optimist Posted March 12, 2022 Report Share Posted March 12, 2022 some very good reviews and great start with his first 'start' as such.... but he was also really rated when on loan in L1 at Gillingham... and seems so far he's more than capable of holding his own in the Championship. If Baker is not coming back and we keep KLOSE next season, are we sorted at the back and just really need that right hand side fixing ? proper wing back/full back. As NP said, too much cannot be expected of TANNER as a youngster. Is he really though similar to FLINT ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lanterne Rouge Posted March 12, 2022 Report Share Posted March 12, 2022 Since we`re safe now there`s no reason why he shouldn`t get a bit of a run of games IMO. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grifty Posted March 12, 2022 Report Share Posted March 12, 2022 How tall is he? Tinman described him at 6'5" in commentary and he does look huge, but Wikipedia says he's 6'2" and in the post-match interview he looks roughly the same height at Bentley who is also 6'2".

Mrdc Posted March 12, 2022 Report Share Posted March 12, 2022 This academy of ours is starting to turn into a bit of a conveyor belt of exciting young players. Since COVID has struck sone really exciting players have started to break through. If this can become a regular occurrence the future is going to be incredibly bright.

Think he’s 6ft 2 but about as wide! Whereas Klose who is 6ft 4 is far less broad.

I stood very close to him at a night game before Xmas…he’s tall, I’d say 6’4”. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerry Gill said he was 6 foot 3 in one interview and he said he is 6 foot 4 in another. So he didnt seem to know! I thought he looked taller than Klose and Atkinson next to him. Whatever his height is he has looked good so far. And only 24 years of age, so very young for a centre back. From what we have seen so far I think it would be a shame to not offer him a new deal, but lets see how he does in these remaining games. He’s proved in a 45 v Forest and 90 v Blackburn that he something to make offering him another year (a more) a decent discussion point. Fair play to him. Would’ve been a shame if he’d left this summer having never pulled on a City shirt. On a very limited sample if Pearson is looking at CBs for next year and is debating Vyner, Moore or Cundy, one of them has moved himself to the top of the pile at this point. 25 in May, got 8-10 years ahead of him. Without getting too romantic over a guy picked up from Bath, it’s a good, cheap squad option if he continues to impress over the coming weeks. Pearson wants aerially dominant, that’s one attribute Robbie has. Blackburn avoided that yesterday, so we didn’t see what he can do in that respect, apart from one good corner headed away. Well done to the medical team too. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bernard Lerring Posted March 13, 2022 Report Share Posted March 13, 2022 Didn't see any of the game yesterday so can't comment on that... but Cundy instantly endeared himself to me when he threw Aaron Connolly to the floor like a ragdoll within 2 minutes of first coming on against Boro the other week Any player that helps city become less of a soft touch is good with me, we've needed it for years 8 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Posted March 13, 2022 Report Share Posted March 13, 2022 Best thing yesterday was after the match when the players came over to the fans. Robbie Cundy was absolutely buzzing at the fact the fans were singing his name. He was loving it. Well done young man, you deserved the accolades. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cidered abroad Posted March 13, 2022 Report Share Posted March 13, 2022 I try not to select "MOM" because it's a team game but, even though I only listened via RB, it came across that he did well on his full debut. Well done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well done to the medical team too. If he puts in steady performances between now and the end of the season it's a no brainer to retain Cundy as a squad player with Moore and Vyner politely told to find a club at a level they can consistently play at.................which is League 1. Harsh but true. Cundy is in a different place to both of those two......similar age but limited league experience and DESPERATE to prove himself rather than being on the "just a job" conveyor belt................which you wouldn't mind with Vyner and Moore if they were better, could concentrate for 96 minutes and didn't make a massive number of individual errors between them. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad Cyril Posted March 13, 2022 Report Share Posted March 13, 2022 I an pretty confident he is between 6'3" and 6'7", but the latter is in high heels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
