Ram1988 Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 Young, talented wing back to add competition to the wide areas. Only young and will only improve. Great business getting him in for no transfer fee. DCFC1388 and Caerphilly Ram 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCFC1388 Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 Brilliant signing, on a free a year after being League 2 player of fhe year. Provides cover/competition to both wing back positions. 7 really good signings for this level with no transfer fee spent, time to get a firat choice forward in to show our intent. Defensively we look solid now, maybe a CB short if we decide to send Rooney out on loan. Zag zig, YouRams and Caerphilly Ram 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's got his big move to were he started 12 months ago. Does this mean he's not the superstar he thinks he is and has huge delusions of grandeur. That shop window must have needed a good clean. Thank good he's gone with his back of narcissism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hughes for example had a game on quick movement and quick weighted passing. That knee injury when he'd been told to do a bit more tackling made him 50% of the player.. Knight's game is tackling and energy. By the time he's 25 and filled out a bit he'll be a beast if he stays free of serious injury. Always a chance with the amount he puts in. i love knight but when people talk about him turning into a beast I don’t get it He’s a terrier, a small one at that. His ball skills and decision making will hopefully improve but unlikely he’s going to morph all of a sudden into an Irish wolfhound. And the more he does what he does well, the less chance there is that this unnatural transformation will occur Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Came back from Euro 16 like the wild man of Borneo and spent 3 games smashing crap out the likes of Stephens at Brighton. Most blokes put on a good 15-18 pound in weight between 22-25. If he turns that to muscle, avoids injury and actually plays in midfield he'll be a steal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DiggerB Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 General consensus from City fans on their Twitter announcement is that Wilson was well-regarded, unlucky with the injury and that we’ve got ourselves a player.

Ambitious Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 43 minutes ago, kevinhectoring said: Knight v Hendrick? Irish terrier v Irish setter. Different breeds, body types so different development We got very lucky with Hendrick - an ok footballer that hit somewhat of a purple patch and we were able to make a lot of money off him. When you actually look at his career - he’s had one good year, 14/15, the rest of the time he’s been average to below average. Four goals last season was actually his best return since then which speaks volumes. He’s never been more than a Championship level footballer, at best. I expect Knight to have somewhat of a similar career. Hendrick is a better footballer technically, but Knight has a better engine. Hendrick could disappear in games too, tendency to hide and keep his head down. Long spells playing very safe but would pop up with a moment of magic. kevinhectoring, The Scarlet Pimpernel and DiggerB 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is quite tall too a much bigger unit than Knight ever will be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
