Apparently we've just signed this lad on loan from West Ham for the month (Cheers Mr Hendon) Anyone know anything about him? Either way, at last! A partner for Keds!!! http://www.facebook.com/GillsNews http://www.gillinghamfootballclub.com/page/NewsDetail/0,,10416~2451882,00.html
Quite a few vids on you tube of him playing for West Ham, Chelski & England....Looks like he might be right handful, alothough i did say that when Big Mac turned up..Fingers crossed the loanee injury curse doesn't hit us this time ...COYG
His a good player and just not ready for the league of football his been asked to play esp in the prem he looked so out his depth, will do well at Gillingham its make or brake time really. I am surprised we have not given him a go in the Championship but we do have alot of players in that area now.
surely this isn't the player that we have been taking our time over, don't see many goals in him...but would love to be proved wrong? did'nt do to well at swindon in the division above last season either! i thought hessy said he wanted to also bring someone in with a view to a permanent deal...sure that won't happen with this player. just think this is a last resort signing, when all else fails...hope not though!
Wouldnt surprise me we have just sold Stanislas and Hines so would not surprise me if another youngster goes. This lad is a lump of a play physical but he also has the ability to turn and take players on, he will score goals given the right services.
When i saw his name mentioned a week or 2 ago i thought no way, and i am just shocked and delighted that we've managed to get him, i've seen him play for west ham before and he looked a handful, only problem is that we haven't got him for very long.. but great bit of business!!
never seen the lad so will reserve judgement but should be the blend of pace and strength the play alongside kedwell and allow him more space time etc that he needs to create and score goals like the did for the wombles
Every player so far from West Ham seems to have gone out on a 1month loan then it seems to be extended
I'm happy with this bit of business, kind of glad we didn't get Pitman because he hasn't exactly been on great form for the past few seasons. A young energetic, talented player with hopefully a bit of pace is exactly what we need and by the sounds of him he is physical enough for league two, fingers crossed this one comes good.. i guess that demba guy didn't impress enough to get a deal?
Im not worried that he don't get many goals as the way I look at it as is that we need someone who can land the ball and set up Keds and I think he may be the man.
Great news but the midfield will need to be on their game to supply the front two (feels good to say front two!!).
Cheers BRB. Although I do have my fears that with Big FRank being 6' 3" this may result in more hoof-ball. Hopefully we will see no more of Mr Oli, he has had his fair share of opportunities to shine and has continuously failed. Even my 6 year old groans when he comes on.
I will at least be able to tolerate the hoof ball, if we have 2 strikers up front and one of them is 6' 3" - as for Oli, my patience with him finally expired when he came on in the Shrewsbury game.
Poor scoring record but looks big and strong so should take a lot of weight off Kedwell so hopefully will finally start scoring.
Indeed Hoadie, I've been reading threads on here for a while but have now decided to say my piece when needed. 3 points against Hereford this Saturday is an absolute must, we need to get our season back on track as we don't need to be playing catch up with too many points to make up on the top 3. We have the players in place to mount a serious challenge, it's now up to Hess to get the best out of them. UTG!!!!!
