I didn't see him in pre season but the comments on him seemed negative. Thought he was poor on my first view against Welling but looks a real menace since then.
Putting him with Bowman could provide us with a useful combination up front.
I understand that he was at Southend as a youngster but am interested to know where he has been since then?
For me he has really been an "out of the blue" signing and is a player that I don't think many would have suspected would have made this sort of impact.
Fair play to Hargreaves for signing him.
Hargreaves said on the radio that he could have six goals this season and thats fair comment - he has been getting in scoring postions (not to mention his involvement in the red card today).
Looks a real prospect to me.
You mean that match where, aged barely 17, he made his first professional appearance at short notice to play among a side he's been with less than a month? Yeah, it's a real head scratcher, that.
If he makes the transition from naive but talented youth teamer to hardened professional, he'll be a nice player. Sadly, it's very easy for that gap not to be bridged. Ask Saul Halpin, he'll know (and unfortunately, I think Dan Sullivan might be on his way to finding out too).
