QuitYourJibbaJivin Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 Anybody know anything about this guy? Personally I’ve never heard of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abu Derby Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 Didn’t he once play for Burton Albion? maybe when Rowett was there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QuitYourJibbaJivin Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 Played quite a bit as a midfielder apparently so I’m guessing he’ll be comfortable on the ball. Could well be a direct replacement for Keogh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kernow Posted April 8, 2018 Author Share Posted April 8, 2018 Heard of him but can’t ever recall seeing him play. He’s a 24 year old CB, was on loan at Burton previously. If we are after a “commanding centre back” then perhaps it is going to be the end of Keogh here. Can’t see Davies being pushed out yet after the season he’s had. Keogh won’t want to be third choice, and is likely to be on more than Pearce is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle guest Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 Think he can play in quite a few positions, centre half, right back & holding midfield. Only 24 years old so has plenty of time to improve. Wonder who we’d be getting rid of in the centre half position if we did sign him, we all know it wouldn’t be Davies so that leaves keogh & Pearce?

Nuwtfly Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 Yep. This is more like it. Young centre-half who’s hard as nails and can pass a ball like a defensive midfielder. Very keen on this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 Never heard of him. Get him in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Millenniumram Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 Not really heard much about him but ball playing centre half= end of Keogh methinks. Seen he’s been thrown around at 4m before so can’t be a bad player, Blackburn obviously don’t want to lose him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dimmu Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 I've followed Dack quite a while and Lenihan is another of their players who have caught the eye. Big, solid, good on the ball... playing wise I don't see any reason why he wouldn't do well even in PL. But there's big downside too. He has started to gain a bit of fame being sicknote and that's something you really don't want from your CB. Could be worth a go, but I doubt Blackburn would sell if they get promoted and we not. edit. Worth mentioning that he really didn't prosper last time in Championship... but like it's been said, he is still young to be a stopper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pearl Ram Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 Ball playing centre half eh ? Maybe we should slip in on the blindside for this lad while the big boys are dithering. http://www.thecomet.net/sport/football/manchester-city-spark-bidding-war-for-1m-rated-stevenage-and-england-u19-starlet-ben-wilmot-with-chelsea-and-spurs-also-in-hunt-1-5467450 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sage Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 Am I too late for the Keogh bashing? Shackell appears to be leaving in the summer and that leaves us with 3 senior CBs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkle Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 Maybe Pearce is looking to leave? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
therealhantsram Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 Asking price is 4-5 mil apparently. Or about 1 Will Hughes. For a League 1 defender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
