Natchfever Posted July 4, 2018 Report Share Posted July 4, 2018 14 hours ago, Ivorguy said: I think folk may be missing the obvious that we offered first team football, a huge attraction to young footballers a league below He's 22 years old, so any move would be as a first team squad member. I very much doubt he has been offered first team football because clearly a number if recent signings have been nowhere near the first team. He may though think he has a better chance of playing Champ football for us if another "bigger" club also put an offer on the table, although if middling teams like ourselves were competing then no doubt the financial deal put to his agent was what told in the end.

Ivorguy Posted July 4, 2018 Report Share Posted July 4, 2018 OK but judging on his own comments on signing he does expect a starting position He clearly is a step up from others signed around his age Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garland-sweden Posted July 4, 2018 Report Share Posted July 4, 2018 Got good vibes in this player, hope they are right. Have only see him on youtube, Scunny tv. But he can shoot, that for sure. He is tall and quick, inpredictley. Think he will be in the starting eleven. With the departues and signings, exciting season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No guarantees whatsoever though and I'm sure he's been left under no illusions about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think LJ is building a squad that he can rotate based on form and fitness, every player will know that if they do not cut the mustard there will be another player ready to take over. Webster could be swapped out for Wright. Weimann, Watkins, the new boy from Scunny who's name I need to learn will all be rotated dependant on fitness and form also.

Lots of hype about Moore Engval Maggers Eliasson, only one of which has made any impact at first team level. We do also seem to have a lot of wide players and whilst anyone would "expect" to play which is a good thing, I would be astonished if a player from his level has been guaranteed such a position.

A bit different as he has lots of good experience in England. He's a more similar signing to O'Dowda or Brownhill in my opinion if we're making comparisons. Promising player with a fair bit of English experience but still room to improve and develop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair comment but our new man is not a step up from either of them surely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say he will be a step up in terms of instant impact compared to the likes of Taylor Moore, Engvall, Eliasson etc Wouldn't expect him to need time to adjust or anything that a foreign player may need - just a bit of time to adjust from the step up in quality from L1 to the Championship. He is potentially very good though, really pleased we've pulled this off. Surprised a bigger side didn't go for him actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
