Kernow Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 Next season we might have another lower-division Nottingham club to send our prospects to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
condor Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 Good move. Not seen enough of him to make a judgement. League one can be v physical on a 19yr old though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shuff264 Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 Never blown me away, gives him a good chance to show what he can do. Seems like an effective player, but not a brilliant one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ivo_knoflicek Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 Looks as though he was fouled to get their penalty for the opening goal. He and Santos both started. They won 2-1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bald Eagle's Barmy Army Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 I was talking to a Nott's County supporting season ticket holder last night and he said he is the best player they've seen at Meadow Lane all season. Very hungry for the ball and got the penalty from hard work and determination. He also said that in the programe notes on Saturday, all the Nott's County players have said Santos is the most skillful player at the club.

Boycie Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Right, let's do a Liverpool and get him back. See how they like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Srg Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Why and which bit? Thomas being so good.. guess it's one game but in the 4/5 I've seen him play he looks half the ability of some of those in the team he plays with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't really comment because I've never seen him in a full competitive match. A loan can really help a player find their feet and maybe, just maybe show what true potential they have. Different surroundings and coming out of their comfort zone is a big thing for a young player. Look at Callum Ball when he went to Nott's County, we never heard any decent reports I don't recall and what is he doing now? He was reported on here though to be the next big thing and just didn't cut it for one reason or another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ambitious Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Thomas is an established England U20 striker, so maybe we just haven't seen the best of him. When you think of some of the players he is ahead of in order to get in the squad, it's frightening. In fact, he's the joint most-capped player at U20 international level. We'll have to see, because I have to agree with SRG on this, I've never been bowled over by his ability but I haven't see him THAT much. 1-2 full games, plus the odd cameo.

To be fair to the kid, if he'd an out and out striker, more of the poacher variety you won't see a lot in short spells... They don't tend to be involved in build up play or anything like that... was trying to explain that about Bent at the weekend to my dad when he came on...

He's missed some sitters for the U-21's though from the match reports I've read and highlights Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
