Smaller than Tudgay. Hard to describe him. Definitely a second striker, bit of skill. He would be better abroad where its less physical angieram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoyMac5 Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 Quote According to The Athletic, the Danish side could not match the forward's wage demands and thus have decided to pull out of the running for his signature. Keen on playing then? ziggyram59 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramslad1992 Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 Goes to show how bad we are as a club at the minute when in the last few days the most used transfer thread is about a youth player potentially leaving… it’s just depressing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anag Ram Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 Says something doesn’t it when the only item in transfer forum from the past 12 hours is a tale of an overhyped youngster who can’t get in our U23s team. Still, loads of time before the season starts. hintonsboots 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B4ev6is Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 It is a shame not working out for him here I really had hoped i get a look at him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DazzaRam Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 Had a bit of hope for this lad but seen him a few times and failed to impress. Was at best a sub for u23s. Obviously watched him against Chorley and he never caused them any headaches. I think hes his biggest fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ollycutts1982 Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 He could well turn out to be the Ravel Morrison of U23 football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TuffLuff Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 Here’s my two penneth on Bobby, with apologies to all who are refreshing the transfer forum atm and only seeing updates to Bobby Duncan’s thread! I’ve been pondering since we saw him in that FA Cup game in January that he might be another lad who’s fallen somewhat foul of the Liverpool academy system* and it’s probably why he looked to leave there. He’s obviously got something, there’s no point debating that but in the Chorley game you can tell his positioning was off and was lacking any sort of nous. So he’s behind on his development of where he could/should be, which is probably frustrating when you want to be knocking on the first team. There’s a player there certainly, but it could be another 2 years until he even looks ready for first team football. *What I mean by this is tht I think Liverpool run there academy similar to forest in that each level of academy players have a prize goose who they develop for the first team and every one else kinda gets cast aside. It’s works, as you usually get a player worth £10 million plus, but you essentially slow down the development of a load more talented footballers who end up struggling to get higher than league 1. But anyway, different debate for another time. 48 hours 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can you tell there's a player there? I've seen absolutely nothing, in the few games his been in, to suggest that. Maybe he was playing in a team at Liverpool that created so many chances he couldn't but score a load. rammieib 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macintosh Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 I've been working on a book similar to Duncan, did well at youth level at Liverpool, scored lots of goals and played four games for the first team. That was when Kenny Dalglish was manager there. His story is similar to so many, that to be an English player and become a regular player is so rare, that level is a huge leap. Jon Newby, he left for first team football, firstly at Bury, and was there when Kazim-Richards was starting out, then Huddersfield, York, Kiddersminster, Bury again, Wrexham, Southport, Crewe, Burton, Colwyn Bay and Warrington. He loved his career and all he wanted to do was play football, but for one season he was close to ousting Emile Heskey and Michael Owen. I'm guessing this close season was Bobby Duncan's chance to do that, and he has blown it. Will Hughes Hair 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Igor Igor Whats the Score? Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 Can we close the thread……..there’s more chance of Mikel Beck being induced to the Rams Hall of Fame than of Duncan contributing to our future ??♂️ EranioIsGod, Philmycock and Raich Carter 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oomarkwright Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 I hope he's still got a chance here and knuckles down. He should get regular u23's games this season of all seasons. Could be our Micheal Owen. 48 hours 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
