Wonder why he's following Markus Henriksen? He's got a year left at Hull. Surely too expensive for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t want us signing ANY player whose been out longer than a year at any point in their career A crock who played 35 games this season? One long term injury doesn’t mean someone is a crock. Also, when you have FFP issues and want to bring in quality then you have to take the odd gamble. Take comfort in the fact he’s a free transfer, Bruce knows him well, and given our recent problems with injured players there is likely to be a very thorough check on potential signings.

Jim Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 12 hours ago, Blue and white said: As Bruce has already said, he had nothing to spend at Villa and turned them from a joke to a promotion chasing team for the princely sum of 1.5m, yes it involved loans and free signs but if we are going down that route we have the best man for the job. This. I don't think some people particularly Villa Fans realise what a good job he actually did at Villa Park? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apart from his major knee injury there is no history of constant injuries. While I understand the fitness concerns a player of his ability on a free is an absolute steal. I can't believe some of the negativity on here to his possible signing yet we give hero status to Sam Hutchinson who is plagued by injuries & has only made more than 30 appearances once in his career. If anybody on here suggested we get rid of Hutch they'd get far more negs than agreements. Think this would be a good deal and agree with the above but my issue is, do we need another RB? Yes he is better than Iorfa and Palmer, but Palmer has been offered a new deal so can’t see why we would need him, unless we plan on using him wide right with Iorfa at RB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's also very quick and comfortable with the ball attacking. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its like we’d have three players who would be competing for right back, and the perfect scenario would be, one player with the best attributes from all three. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Tom Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 Gotta say I’m hugely impressed with the lad’s attitude and the way he talks after watching this. Didn’t know any of this about him, but his pre-teen years sound like something out of a Mike Leigh film - fantastic that he’s emerged from all that so articulate, motivated and disciplined by the sounds of it. Really seems to have his head screwed on, bodes well for his continuing return to full fitness IMO. Based on this and the performances I’ve generally seen from him, I don’t see why he wouldn’t be an asset to any team at this level tbh. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read a bit about him when the rumour started, got to give a lot of credit to his older brother Tom Bolarinwa(from wiki, wonder if he changed his name?) who looked after him after his mum died. Moses was 13 at the time and Tom was only 17.....it's quite an amazing story, his mum would be proud. He must be very strong willed. I'd risk signing him on that basis alone.

Odubajo had the option to extend his deal with Brentford and chose against it. He played 35 games for them, rebuilding himself after his long lay off. Still only 25 years old. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
