Ricky Holmes


Recommended Posts

Well, one thing I am sure of is that I've seen Ricky Holmes play more often than anyone else on Owlstalk....

 

Spent four years at Chelmsford City, in the Ryman and Conference South, at the start of his career....seen him dozens of times. Have to say he was a stand out player at those levels, got in the England C team, and a number of league sides were watching him including Palace and Ipswich. Started as an out and out winger, mainly on the right, but in his last season played a more central, striking role. Very confident in his own ability, quick, loves to take defenders on.....and can take penalties.

 

Would he be worth a punt? Possibly....might be interesting to see how tired defenders would cope against him if he was brought on 20 minutes from the end. But I doubt very much he's the sort of signing that would be firing us into the top two in the Championship just, possibly, a squad player and we have enough of them. Think we can be doing a lot better.

 

In any case, if he goes anywhere it will be to United.
