YouRams Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 (edited) Never fall in love with a loan player they say. Ebou with another solid performance tonight, completely changed us for the better since he arrived. What's he worth, what would Cardiff want for him and what could we afford to pay? I think we're in for a long summer thread again! Edited March 12 by YouRams jono, LazloW, Ilkestonian and 4 others 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cannable Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 *tin helmet on* He’s provided midfield balance but would be a squad player if we were promoted sage, rammieib and Premier ram 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No nonsense win the ball and let the players further up do what they're good at, he'd be top of my list in the summer.

The missing piece of the jigsaw to our promotion chances. We can't afford for him to get injured in the next 8 games.

Ambitious Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 I love centre midfield players that have the ability to be ‘there’ and he has it in an abundance. It’s a great trait and transferable at every level. It’s a different kettle of fish to Gorgeous George who had limitless ability and could do things I’ve never seen a Derby player do, but at the level we are at Ebou is a great alternate. Fantastic from the recruitment staff who deserve their credit on this one. Ilkestonian, angieram, Fla Ram and 5 others 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellafella Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 Until last night I thought him a defensive barndoor but he’s clearly on a wavelength with Dwight and so also a rangey passer with 2 exquisite passes to set up goal-scoring openings. Would definitely cut it at Championship level and hope he comes permanently for next season. He clearly loves it here and that counts for a lot. Get him signed.

8Leeds Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 It genuinely is the same situation. Pointed this out to a friend a few weeks back. RadioactiveWaste 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadioactiveWaste Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 Does he have glass knees? Asking for about twenty thousand rams fans. Was he injured at Cardiff or just not playing before he was loaned here? Certainly, fit wise he's been brilliant in our team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlie George Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 Adams has done well and added value,but let's be right about it,he's not in the same universe as GT34. George was England class. A player who was on a different level to anything we've seen at PP since Eranio. DavesaRam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two points here: 1) The thread is only named this because of when we tried to sign George after his loan, the transfer thread was 100s of pages and it was an ongoing obsession for months. Nothing to do with the respective abilities of George and Ebou 2) We're a League One club with League One players. Crewton 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taribo Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 We’re just getting him fully match fit for Cardiff next season. He’s had a tough time there with injuries keeping him out of all of last season so I’d be surprised to see Cardiff let us have him cheap, or even going rate. They’ll know how much we want him so unless we’re had over a barrel again, I can’t see this one happening RadioactiveWaste 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxjam Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 Saw this on X last night, sums up his attitude since he's been here. Hell of a player if we could sign him, he seems to quite like it at Derby! Comrade 86, Premier ram and SKRam 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kernow Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 I’m confident we’d be 1 place higher in the league if we had him all season. The balance he’s added has made such a difference, it’s not just Adams that looks like a good player, but everyone around him has got ‘better’ too.

Ram@Lincoln Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 Hopefully we had a built in optional future fee. Didn't we have the same with Martin, Forsyth and Jamie Ward back in the day under Clough? If not, he'll surely know where his bread is buttered. He didn't get a sniff at Cardiff, had no relationship with their fans, whereas here he's a nailed on starter and loved by the fans. Make it happen Warne and co! Adslegend, SKRam and DavesaRam 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
