Scored both goals today in City's development squad's 2-0 win at Watford. http://www.watfordobserver.co.uk/sp....Watford_Under_21s_beaten_at_home_to_Cardiff/ This guy is a serious threat up front and is scoring for fun. Should Slade give him a chance?
We might as well put him on the bench. He has been playing games fairly regularly unlike Saadi and Zohore. We haven't carried any goal threat all season. Our play off chances are rapidly disappearing so time to start making decisions on next season's squad.
Agreed he's scoring at that level Sparks but the first paragraph about Watford U 21's says a lot about them: - Watford Under-21s remain without a win in Professional Development League Two South in 2016 after today's 2-0 home defeat against Cardiff City. He has always done well at this level and it could be argued that he has never really been given a go in the first team. Last time I saw him he was very light weight and struggled to hold the ball up against big defenders. Perhaps he has grown a bit and bulked up. That being the case he deserves a chance to come off the bench but when Zohore and Saadi can't get much game time and Pilks hopefully fit for QPR it is difficult to see where he will fit in when we are still trying to get in the play offs. If and when our hopes end then that is probably the time to see what he can do.
I have seen him a few times this season, he has a good scoring record however I agree with BfB. Now is not the time to include him in the squad - but his time will come!! On the subject of the Development team - they currently lie in second place and have every chance of of qualifying for the play offs again. They have one home game remaining - against Palace, this was postponed earlier in the season. It has been rescheduled for Monday 25th April at 7pm at Cardiff City Stadium. This is a match not to miss - so get down there and support the boys. Free entry and free car parking!
With the change in playing style and formation, it might suit him. He wouldn't suffer so much with big defenders. Agree a bench spot wouldn't harm, there are enough spare that don't get used. If we end up out of contention with a couple games to go, certainly chuck him in there. We need a natural goal scorer which he seems to be.
One for next season perhaps? If though as as likeley we'll be out of the hunt by our last few games then surely worth a go.
