Davefevs Posted June 27, 2022 Report Share Posted June 27, 2022 I was talking to someone yesterday about him. Think he is raw, but can score goals beneath the Champ…probably Lg2, but possibly Lg1. In the right side he could do well. But he isn’t a Champ player imho. Great character, love his confidence. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bcfc01 Posted June 27, 2022 Report Share Posted June 27, 2022 (edited) His last two or three games for the u23s weren't his best, his timing was way off - just couldn't get the ball under control, and he look devoid of confidence. Hope he gets fixed up with a good club, best of luck to him. Edit - Cambridge a decent level for him.

BCFCGav Posted June 27, 2022 Report Share Posted June 27, 2022 Ah that's a shame. Liked him the few times I watched him. Brace for us in the cup last season, he finished the season with more goals than some seasoned pros! Best of luck Saiks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamC Posted June 27, 2022 Report Share Posted June 27, 2022 Good move for him to get a League One club after his loan at Shrewsbury didn’t work out. Best of luck to him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoystonFoote'snephew Posted June 27, 2022 Report Share Posted June 27, 2022 Although injuries hampered his progress he never reached the levels his early promise suggested. Having been passed for 1st team consideration by Conway and Bell his presence would act as a blocker for the next generation coming through. I like the lad and he could well score goals at L1/2 level so Cambridge looks a good move. Wish him all the best. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Street red Posted June 27, 2022 Report Share Posted June 27, 2022 Best of luck to him Cambridge will have a good player on there books. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shuffle Posted June 27, 2022 Report Share Posted June 27, 2022 Lightening quick which is always hard to defend against. If he has time then he is a poor finisher but if instinctive then can be good. Good luck to him as that’s a great move to start your career again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorenzos Only Goal Posted June 27, 2022 Report Share Posted June 27, 2022 He will be will do well there alongside Joe Ironside, they lack pace at times Cambridge. If he can click, I predict he will pop in a few for them if he starts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonBristolian Posted June 27, 2022 Report Share Posted June 27, 2022 Good luck to him. I like watching him play but he probably has a bit too much to learn and a few too many players ahead of him. Hope he does well there. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ralphindevon Posted June 27, 2022 Report Share Posted June 27, 2022 Watched him at Torquay a few times, at no point did I think championship player but great character and I think and hope he’ll be a success at Cambridge. It’s taken a while but it finally feels like Nige is getting HIS squad together. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Port Said Red Posted June 27, 2022 Report Share Posted June 27, 2022 It's testament to the quality of player we have and are waiting to develop from the academy. I don't think it's that long ago that we would have had playing and hoping he will improve, rather than allowing him to go with our blessing. @Davefevs, what will be our approach to this move, would we waive any U23 compo in a trade for a potential sell on percentage?

I suppose he didn't exactly do much in the loans we sent him on so thats probably his level. Shame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He came back early, but not as early as they apparently wanted him to. Still only 23 as well, I wonder if he will grow up and get back to the game at some point?

I think, as far as I remember, there were a few attitude problems, possibly thinking he was better than he was, and quite possibly what @Port Said Red has mentioned above - something like that sounds familiar with someone, so quite possibly. He wouldn't be the first young player to become a bit too big for his boots too quickly, and then drift away. That being said, many have also dropped off, realised what they could have had, then knuckle down and work their way back up. Hopefully for his sake, he's the latter, as there was clearly a player in there somewhere. As I was typing this out though, a thought occurred to me about Hinds and his "attitude problems" - in that we could also be describing Tyreeq Bakinson. Then I thought, I'm pretty sure that we signed both of them from Luton, around about the same time..... Hinds officially announced as signing for us on Lutons website, 31st January 2017. Bakinson officially announced as signing for us, again on Lutons website, 31st August 2017. Co-incidence or not?

I don't know anything about the club but they must have a lot of competition for young players in the area, you could see a scenario where they are lighter on the discipline with talented players, as inducement to stay? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
