TheBigDog Posted December 8, 2021 Share Posted December 8, 2021 My view - Apart from a very few exceptional talents, young players need to be carefully managed. By all means give them early opportunity but manage their game time carefully. Couto is one example. Clearly a talented player going forward but still lacking in the defensive side of his game. On at least one occasion yesterday Piergianni had to remind Couto of his positioning and several other times Benny was just not strong enough to hold off the attacker. Hart should start on Saturday. Then there is Harry Vaughan - huge talent but is still a schoolboy in stature. He will get stronger and fitter and has all the attributes to play at a higher level. Though good when driving forward, he was caught in possession a number of times and should have been substituted far earlier than he was. Play Whelan and Bowden on Saturday and bring Harry on if needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well there's 20 slots on the footy card going spare, so chuck £100 at that first. But if you have £20 left over, 13/8 on skybet seems a decent price. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take him back in an instant I liked him when he played deeper in midfield, less so when in an advanced role. However his performance at Fulham was on another planet and for that alone I'd be happy to have him back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe not from you, or me, or anybody who isn't just pretending to like Football because everybody else does. But there were massive, squirming, angry piles of doubt permeating our fan base as to the level of his ability. They'll be gutted they didn't ruin his career and only secretly admit that to themselves in quiet moments. Strange people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bristolatic Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 Sido Jombati, Christian N'Guessan and Dominic Poleon all playing for Ebbsfleet United today. Looks like they've found their level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

philsalt Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 Remember Poleon having a good game in a high scoring draw against Gillingham away once, always got in decent positions, lightning quick but couldn’t finish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
