Ones To Watch

As the new season is nearly upon us,who do you think,could possibly
step up to make first team appearances from our youth/reserve side.
My choices.
Briggs ~ still a little raw,but has potential.
Frei ~ shown great potential already,could see him often this season.
Hoeson ~ loan spell will,make or break him.
Della Valle ~ " " " " " "
Jesse Joronen ~ big tall finnish goalkeeper very acrobatic lacks positional sense
Marquez- sanchez ~ my tip for the top great right back,not afraid to tackle good
distributer of the ball.

 

Good question, Roscafre. I wish I could see the youth/reserve games like some of you; that's where you'd get the clues. I don't know about you, but when I watch players, I can usually tell within 20 seconds if the player has that special quality. Sometimes you can tell just from watching their first touch.

 

Scored the only goal in his new teams 1-0 wuin at the weekend

 

I'd like to see Briggs given a few chances too. Although we definitely have better wingers and Riise is a better fullback - they're all getting on a bit (well, 30ish plus)

 

From the Europa games Briggs looks like a good'un, as does Frei.

 

......and Pajtim - when he's had chance to settleI think he'll be the badger's nadgers

 

D R Agree with your comments,re reviewing a player over the first few minutes,
Thats why I rated M ~ Sanchez. On the down side,a little on the small side,
but George Cohen was not all that tall

Keep repeating myself,a sign of senility ?

 

George made up in circumference for what he lacked in height - it always surprised ne he waqs as nippy as he was. Great player and nice man.

 

And Paul Parker was hardly a giant among men, until he walked onto the pitch.
