I think he’d be a perfect addition to us as he plays in the 10 or on either wing, is young and will have a high chance of R.O.I. Because of his grandad Seamus O'Dembele?

Comrade 86 Posted July 16 Share Posted July 16 (edited) It's a big, fat 'yes' from me, but if reports of multiple clubs being in for him are true, then we have to stick to our valuations and hope we are favoured by the player himself.

He seemed to end up on the floor whenever a Derby player got within 3 feet of him. I'm sure our players were briefed to rough him up and limit his impact on the game, but if we managed it in L1 then I'm sure that's the kind of treatment he can expect on a regular basis in the Championship. Warne seems to want strength and athleticism, I'm not sure this lad ticks both of those boxes, would his technical ability outweigh that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had this discussion earlier in this thread, but he was man marked tightly by Ebou. Every single time he touched it, Ebou was on top of him with a hard tackle. It speaks to reason that the manager who made this plan would be interested in the player he game planned for. Saying he just throws himself over indicates he was diving, he wasn’t.

Saying he just throws himself over indicates he was diving, he wasn’t. I didn't say he just throws himself over. I said he seemed to end up on the floor frequently, and went on to give a reason for that. My point is, if we planned for it then so will everyone else (unless they are willing to let him play, in which case he'd be great) and I'm not convinced the guy has got the strength to deal with it. A valid concern and not an oversimplification at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His lack of physicality meant he was falling over and on his arse because he was easily dispossessed or knocked off the ball which is different from diving and consequently contributed very little. He would need to significantly step up on that to be a consistent at Championship level. Is he too easily nullified a bit of a one trick pony ?

Ok, so first I have to say that I haven't seen this guy play, so I can't comment on him specifically. But just on lack of physicality, surely there are numerous examples of slight players succeeding in the Championship. To start with take 17 year old Will Hughes. He did alright. Tom Ince was hardly muscular and bagged plenty of goals for us. The key thing is round pegs in round holes. Omar Mascarell for all his talent always struggled with the physical side of the CDM role. But played in the right position players with pace or quick feet (or both) don't necessarily need to have a physical heft.
