luke_bristol Posted February 1 Report Share Posted February 1 (edited) “Blistering pace” according to Man City while he was at their academy, excited by this one I should add that I know nothing about him and my bar for “excited” is pretty low given the lack of transfer activity Edited February 1 by luke_bristol 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

INCRED Posted February 1 Report Share Posted February 1 2 minutes ago, Negan said: Has to be the most random signing ever hasn’t played a great deal of games in Belgium either, haven’t even heard of the club we’ve signed him from! No clue if he’s any good so will be an interesting one. Was in Man City’s set up and a very good player by what I have seen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Army 87 Posted February 1 Report Share Posted February 1 3 minutes ago, Port Said Red said: Manning says they have been watching him for a while, but I suppose because there have been no rumours the nahsayers will want to suggest it's a panic last minute deal. Is there a city group link here with manning, or is that a bit far fetched? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin Ian M Posted February 1 Admin Report Share Posted February 1 Played in the same age group as Rico Lewis and got the players’ player of the year award for the 21/22 season when scoring 11 & assisting 18 from the right wing in the U18s. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Top Robin Posted February 1 Report Share Posted February 1 4 minutes ago, petehinton said: Can’t lie this is a bit puzzling to me. Signing a winger when we’ve moved away from playing wingers, signed a 4 year deal at the Belgian side last summer so can’t imagine there’s much chance of a perm. Just a case of getting ‘someone’ attacking in? Apparently he's a 6ft 2' striker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just about to post this, I think there has to be. It might also explain why a player with so little experience has a 10 minute highlights reel! https://youtu.be/pN7iQiSWxWg?si=EjrQdrRkORdyOXOB 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malago Posted February 1 Report Share Posted February 1 Described by Manchester City as a "skilful forward with blistering pace", Mebude is renowned for his goalscoring ability, and was named academy player's player of the year for the 2021–22 season.[ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just an observation, not a criticism, 3 more senior appearances than Tammy had! Not criticising either, but completely different in the fact that Tammy may not of had any appearances, but was very highly rated & expected to break in to the Chelsea team sooner or later! Hopefully this lad can be a 1/4 as good as Tammy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Journalist Posted February 1 Report Share Posted February 1 Given we're in mid-table obscurity and signing a 19-year-old on loan, that much-coveted pathway's suddenly not looking quite so clear, is it?

Redtucks Posted February 1 Report Share Posted February 1 12 minutes ago, westonred said: Breaking: City sign Dire Mebude on loan There's our mystery attacker with Dire Mebude joining on loan from Belgian side KVC Westerlo on loan until the end of the season. No, he's not a household name and, no, he's a 6ft 4in striker but based on the footage that's out there of him during his time with Manchester City, the boy can play. Whether or not that can be transferred into the Championship remains to be seen but it's kind of an interesting little signing. Mebude left City last summer to move to Belgium, where his older brother Dapo is based, in the hope of earning more senior game time. 3 minutes ago, Top Robin said: Apparently he's a 6ft 2' striker He's shrunk by 2" in 9 minutes!!!!
