Leicester Ram Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 Kent would offer something different, really fantastic dribbling ability. Ability to go direct at players we won't have now Ince has gone. I'd rather Lawrence on a permanent but he'd give us something different to the current crop. Russell and Weimann are grafters, Anya's an old school winger and Blackman's a sort of second striker stuck out on the wing. Need someone good on the ball.

My opinion is the total opposite! We need a selfish player (not that I thought he was from that video) who will run at defenders. That was highlights from only 1 game and he gave the defenders (one of the best defences in the league last season) an absolute nightmare. Put better players around him like Huddlestone to send him on his way and I think he could be brilliant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too many times we cross the ball when we are outnumbered two to one in the box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too many times we cross the ball when we are outnumbered two to one in the box. I totally agree. He crossed the ball a lot against Leeds but maybe that was his instructions. If Rowett told him to run at them and commit men he's the perfect player to do it. Leeds were doubling up on him every time and he still had the ability to beat them. Doesn't surprise me that Leeds and Hull are after him, there was even talk Bournemouth were too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rammieib Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 If they are the best highlights of him in that game, oh dear. Cant cross, takes longer than Christie did to put a cross in. Got tackled in most dribbling clips... If this is the best we are now being linked to, Gary lied to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thekingofbuxton Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 Kent 'tore us a new one' at Oakwell and looked like a world beater (I think our less than average defending on the day helped him achieve this though) That said he was willing to run at his man and shoot which is what is needed from an attacker in my opinion. I was surprised to see him drift out of Barnsleys starting line up towards the end of the session. I'd say he would be very good addition and with his tricks, pace and shooting would offer some similarities to how Ince played. In addition his age suggests there is definitely time for him to get better still. Sign him up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Seems very selfish' but also likes to 'pass backwards'? He seems like he knows when to go toe-to-toe with the defender and when to play the ball to keep it moving. It just means he doesn't run aimlessly at defenders. Has tight control, great skill, and puts in a good set piece. We'd be lucky to get him. Would it be a loan or permanent?

RamLad1884 Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 Would imagine he would be a loan, he's young and could well improve with good team mates around him. I'd assume Lawrence is the replacement for Ince and this guy is coming in as competition/backup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inglorius Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 I hope Rowett hasn't done the classic politicians ploy of promising great things to soften the blow of an unpopular decision in the hope of later on down the line the populous forgetting about said lavish promises.
