SiJ Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 Banna isn't quite as small as you think. I mean he's small, but not hobbit size. Spoke to him last season up at Goodwins (his mate was playing 5 aside or something). Nice enough bloke, but I was somewhat disappointed that he was taller than I assumed.

Players with less ability than him who are big, strong and quick will go further. Lee is never 6ft not having it. Huge myth. You were saying you don’t think he’d make it at a Championship or Premier League club because he doesn’t have the athleticism? I was arguing that many players his size do make it at Champ and Prem level. I don’t think he’ll be a Premier League player, but the lad is 21. If Prem and Champ clubs are sniffing around him they clearly think he’s got the potential to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The coach Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 So premier and champ teams are supposed to be looking at a player deemed not good enough for a bang average 3rd division team...ok 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's got some talent and I hope he makes it, but he's another player who has got better as a result of not being in the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffjohnsonmyhero Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 I really do despair with some of you on here , So ALEX HUNT is not a good player give over ,He is a brilliant young prospect a young lad who in a few years will be worth a lot of money ,Get him signed up and not a one year contract either . 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who do Portsmouth play next? So on that ratio after Saturday he will have 50 games before his next goal 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can agree or disagree but we should have him back asap and get rid of Wing, Byers, Brown and Berahino and have some faith in our youngsters (even though Hunt is no kid anymore), FFS keep him. Brown is a left back, not really a relevant comparison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morepork Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 10 hours ago, SallyCinnamon said: Yeah - just like Shaw, Hirst, Urhoghide, he’s a free agent and has some ability so it’s a no brainer low risk gamble for bigger clubs. If it doesn’t work out, really no harm done for them. Won’t cost them a fortune. But if it works out, it’s a very astute signing. Not sure how the lad has done at Grimsby, but always quite liked the look of him. He can play a bit and has a good eye for a pass. With experience could become a very good player at this level or higher. I hope we offer him and Brennan extensions. And I hope they both look at how Shaw and Urhoghide at Celtic and realise that, remarkably, the grass isn’t always greener. Unless you’re motivated by your bank balance that is! Spot on. I'd just add that after what we witnessed yesterday its difficult to imagine that he couldn't be doing a job for us. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clubs these days buy potential and Alex Hunt has massive potential it all depends on who and how he nurtured , upto now I’d put Hunt in front of Byers and Wing any day 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Tom Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 19 hours ago, owlsruleok said: In posts I have wrote in the past I have always stated Hunt should never have been sent out on loan. You can agree or disagree I’ll disagree with that bit, nowt inherently wrong with loaning him at the time we did IMO considering his age, squad place and experience level. But you *loan* a player to keep them and improve them, presumably with a view to retaining their services longer term or to making them a more saleable asset - either way, it’s an investment of sorts. We’re probably the only business in the world that routinely ‘invests’ quite heavily in assets it later ends up giving away for free. Bonkers. Agree he’d probably be able to do a job in the current squad. Certainly rather have him on the bench than Wing, Byers etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
