ram my bum Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 well id like to say this lad deserves a chance to start and prove to all us derby county fans he can be our striker / target man its good the lad is there abouts and training with 1st team but he needs games throw him in and see what we get . cloughy has thrown mason bennett in and the lad has had nothing to show. now this ball lad is only 18 but built like a steve howard bloke but younger. i have watched ball many times in the reserves he clearly stands out as a danger man and can finsh well. cloughy has been bring ball on for 10mins 15mins this really isnt good enough and even time ball comes on derby are either losing or drawing on the back foot . my opinion is that start him against hull with theo ? and well see the difference he can flick on and hold the ball up as good as anyone in the derby team (strikers) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EastKentRam Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 He's too slow and immobile, he's also not big enough or good enough in the air to be a target man, he didnt win anything when he came on Saturday. He'll never make it at this level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSD Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 People complain about Theo's first touch....they haven't seen Callum Ball 'http://www.dcfcfans.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':P' /> I don't want to beat him down because he's still young and will develop. Maybe not to Championship standards, but i'm sure he'll do fine at a club like Burton or Chesterfield 'http://www.dcfcfans.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':D' /> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hucknall Ram Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 Seen him a couple of times and I always though Conor Doyle looked better, but that's my opinion. Can't say that bout Bennett, how may times has ball played for England at any level? Mason looked good against Boro and Pompey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that that's a fair assessment, I'm just saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Tibbs Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 People say how good he is at holding the ball up and winning headers but I've never seen a glimpse of either when he's featured for the first team. Whether he's showing more in 90 minutes in the reserves than he does with the odd substitute appearance I can't say but he looks a good few years off of being competent for this level.

PrivateDerby Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 What a username?! Don't like to knock players but young Mason Bennett looks a lot better than Callum Ball. We haven't seen the best of either of them yet though, so it's good to see them get games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hucknall Ram Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 Tbh also we don't need another thread on this, there are plenty of threads debating about him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
