TrickyTrev Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 At 19 years old, I’d rather it have been a 4 or 5 year deal than a 3 year one. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tea Baggins Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 I think this lad is exactly the type of signing we should be looking at. reading the report above from the coach, he is clearly a box to box, high energy midfielder who lacks consistency. Playing week in, week out will give him that and hopefully he turns out to be a real gem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't realise city wanted to give him a long term contract. Fingers crossed then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The owlstalk hysteria, who already have him lined to move to Barca for £50 million, or someone who regularly watches youth football and seems to have a good knowledge of what’s going on. I’m neither, haven’t seen him play and haven’t a clue about his contract. I hope and pray he turns out to be good, no great and is part of our team for years to come. Fingers crossed.

cardiffowl06 Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 Catching up and seeing a lot of fans getting excited. He's 19, let's not expect the earth of the guy. It's a good first move in the market, but any players need to be assembled into a team. Monk has to nature these players and not cast them aside, like he has done so far with his time here.

Inspector Lestrade Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 Good luck to the lad, will he be expecting to come straight in the team or is he more for the future? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cardiffowl06 Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 I didn't say young players. I said players, which he did with key players. This is a good signing on paper and it is encouraging. Let's not get ahead of ourselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sethman75 Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 Great signing and i hope more of his like will come to the mighty Wednesday. After having an aged squad for the past 4-5 years, imagine having an exciting and mobile team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair point, but not let's crush any enthusiasm over the signing, the club needs a lift and this is a little ray of sunshine. I don't think anyone is under the impression we have signed the next big thing, but as you say it's an encouraging step, and we need to applaud it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's at City so he must have something about him, they offered him 4 year deal by all accounts, so again you feel he must have good potential. It's not as if we've taken a punt on someone who's just been released Plymouth is it? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Equally, we have signed youth who we have taken steps forward then many back. We have an incredibly depleted squad, the club needs to act swiftly but not rushed.
