The clubs twitter admin was very active this morning / afternoon, now nothing for three hours, probably nowt to do with an announcement but… 8pm announcement haway
Decided it’s an 8pm announcement he’s number 28 which when split up is 8 o clock in the 24 hour and 12 hour clock thanks
He's already significantly taller and chunkier than he was when he made his debut, shaping up well physically. Don't think it would be beneficial to his game to be a 6'4 unit.
Honestly dont think it matters mate. He has that agression you see smaller lads have sometimes. I have coached plenty of lads who are smaller but they bring more intensity or controlled agression to make up for it. He looks to ride the physical stuff really well. In the modern game, it strikes me that some of the best attacking midfielders are smaller. The list is long. When I first started serious coaching clubs were looking at height and physicality. It was a big frustration to see gifted slight lads overlooked. The FA models in the last 20 years have rewritten that and we focus on talent first now. I very rarely see a profile card in an academy now stipulating height. Thankfully.
OTR still talking about the double transfer announcement. Anyone seen Alexandre Mendy or Robbie Keane recently by chance?
