Webbo Posted 6 June 2020 Share Posted 6 June 2020 I thought he showed some promise but 400k in the hand against a maybe isn't bad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sacreblueits442 Posted 6 June 2020 Share Posted 6 June 2020 ...good move for him!!! He needs to be playing first team league football and another season in the U23s was not going to cut it!! Just looking at the quality we have already and who we are looking to bring in he has no real access to the first team and therefore unable to develope. I think he will be a success when coming back from across the border and the potential of Premier League football is still a possibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not helped by the fact that one of the other U23s has exactly the same hairstyle as him. 6 minutes ago, themightyfin said: See i do get some right! He he.

moore_94 Posted 6 June 2020 Share Posted 6 June 2020 (edited) Strange that he is all of a sudden being referred to as Bassey rather than Ughelumba Is it too hard for them to pronounce up north? Edited 6 June 2020 by moore_94 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought he was one of our best U23s last season. Again disappointing for us that we can't use him but good for him to be going to a big club and have the chance of European football. He'll be a very good player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair play mate, second thing I’ve seen you get right in 4 years Sorry to intrude the forum guys, rangers fan here and genuinely wanted to find out more about him as I’m a football geek and had never heard of him. He won’t be starting for us, no chance as borna has been one of the best full backs in europa league this season. I’m wondering if this kid will be his back up or 3rd choice. Did someone say he mainly played centre back?. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair play mate, second thing I’ve seen you get right in 4 years I watch quite a bit of rangers and the left back is one of the highly rated players but linked with 20 mill move away. Could be back up, could be his replacement? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don’t play with wingers so strength and our full backs have to be strong and fast. Would be pleasantly surprised if he is starting in that time as Borna is only 27 the now and just going into his peak years. Sadly we’ve taken highly rated academy kids before such as ejaria and ojo for example who haven’t cut it up here. Hoping this lads a solid back up at the minute, is he good going forward ?.

Could be back up, could be his replacement? Yeah him , Jacko and Alfie were generally/are our best players. Took Borna a year to adjust to the speed and physicality. He won’t be leaving for atleast another year or two though (if he leaves) so if he does hopefully your lad has developed enough to replace him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lcfcsnow Posted 6 June 2020 Share Posted 6 June 2020 Surprised he's made the move up north considering Dodoo and Johnson both failed in similar moves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember dodoo’s hatrick for you guys against bury and was buzzing. Turned out to be very very average at best, hence kicking about league 1. Hoping this kid is of a better standard.

I'd love it if he could get some good game-time here next season, but we're so stacked in midfield. I don't really know where he'd fit, unless he was okay being 4th/5th choice.

Especially with Josh Knight doing so well as well in a box to box midfield role for Peterborough too, hope they both get loan moves to the Championship. Knight might well attract further 7 figure bids for a permanent transfer which we should only consider with a hefty sell on clause or buy back clause. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh only has a year left on his contract so unless we sign him up to a longer deal its highly doubtful we will attract bids like you talk, never mind be in a position to put in clauses. He may well want to run his deal down if he sees no breakthrough to the first team anytime soon. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miquel The Work Geordie Posted 9 June 2020 Share Posted 9 June 2020 Probably a stupid question that's been asked / answered elsewhere but could we use KDH in our squad for the remaining games of the season given the circumstances? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
