00rawat Posted 27 November 2006 Posted 27 November 2006 Eric Odihambo do you think he should start since no one else is scoring any goals (apart from Hume). Thank You
Tommeh Posted 27 November 2006 Posted 27 November 2006 I'll think he'll get a chance in the FA cup when it starts but not in the league atm
OBO Posted 27 November 2006 Posted 27 November 2006 Is he even old enough to play in the League? Isn't there some kind of restriction on playing youngsters? I would definitely like to see what he's like though.
lildave3 Posted 27 November 2006 Posted 27 November 2006 Is he even old enough to play in the League? Isn't there some kind of restriction on playing youngsters? I would definitely like to see what he's like though. He's old enough. As long as your 16 you can play
Tommeh Posted 27 November 2006 Posted 27 November 2006 Is he even old enough to play in the League? Isn't there some kind of restriction on playing youngsters? I would definitely like to see what he's like though. He didnt look incredible against villa but He was up against premiership class opposition and so I wouldn't judge him on that game alone.

I would definitely like to see what he's like though. 17 is the number that gets thrown around once in a while, with regards to playing age. I thought 16, but either way it's unimpotant, as Odhiambo is 17 (Born May '89).
Joe. Posted 27 November 2006 Posted 27 November 2006 Nah not ready yet. I know it was against Prem opposition but he wasn't very good at all against Villa. If we're going to just hit long balls everytime we might as well just play McAuley up front.
chili_con_carne Posted 27 November 2006 Posted 27 November 2006 I'll think he'll get a chance in the FA cup when it starts but not in the league atm The FA cup? no chance- the FA cup is surely one competition he won't play in. We only played him in the Carling because all our players were injured and he was just there to make up the numbers. And that was the Carling Cup anyway which is a waste of time. If he get's loaned out to a Conference team for a bit of experience first then he might be given a chance
OBO Posted 27 November 2006 Posted 27 November 2006 He's old enough. As long as your 16 you can play Heh, I'm useless!! Maybe he'll start getting on the bench if our strikers continue not scoring? Maybe wishful thinking actually
lookwhaticando Posted 27 November 2006 Posted 27 November 2006 Heh, I'm useless!! Maybe he'll start getting on the bench if our strikers continue not scoring? Maybe wishful thinking actually Wishful thinking. Dodds will be next in line once he returns from Northwich. Besides, the Academy needs Odhiambo to continue their rampant scoring run.
Jonbluefox9 Posted 27 November 2006 Posted 27 November 2006 He'll be lucky to get another first team appearnace in the League or Cup this season imo.
lildave3 Posted 27 November 2006 Posted 27 November 2006 He'll be lucky to get another first team appearnace in the League or Cup this season imo. Tend to agree there, i'd imagine there will be at least one new strikers when Milan takes over.
Thracian Posted 27 November 2006 Posted 27 November 2006 He's old enough. As long as your 16 you can play I thought it was 17 now but would happily be corrected.
lildave3 Posted 27 November 2006 Posted 27 November 2006 I thought it was 17 now but would happily be corrected. Still 16 as far as i know.
00rawat Posted 27 November 2006 Author Posted 27 November 2006 He didnt look incredible against villa but He was up against premiership class opposition and so I wouldn't judge him on that game alone. He has not played alot of games needs more games to see what kind of player he is and what he can bring to the team.
Maybes Posted 27 November 2006 Posted 27 November 2006 17 is the number that gets thrown around once in a while, with regards to playing age. I thought 16, but either way it's unimpotant, as Odhiambo is 17 (Born May '89). Dammit know i feel old. I am a year older than him
BartonFox Posted 27 November 2006 Posted 27 November 2006 Not ready for the first team, you could see that against Villa. Not knocking the lad but he isn't ready for the challenge yet.
00rawat Posted 27 November 2006 Author Posted 27 November 2006 Not ready for the first team, you could see that against Villa. Not knocking the lad but he isn't ready for the challenge yet. Maybe leicester should send him out on loan it would be good for both teams who ever snaps him up. Maybe then if he has played lots of games for that team and scored a few he might be ready to step up to the first team it would do him the world of good to him.
AyewJoking Posted 27 November 2006 Posted 27 November 2006 Regardless of whether Odihambo is ready or not, he will still get the same pathetic service everyone else does.
Thracian Posted 27 November 2006 Posted 27 November 2006 Regardless of whether Odihambo is ready or not, he will still get the same pathetic service everyone else does. Not in the Academy he won't!

Northwich will be looking for a striker come January, a few weeks after Dodds returns to Leicester.
lcfc_jme Posted 27 November 2006 Posted 27 November 2006 I'd perhaps put Odihambo on in the FA Cup if we get a lower league/conference team, as it'll allow him to play with first team players against lesser opposition, which would bring his confidence levels up no ends. I wouldn't however play him in a league game or a cup game against opponents that are better than us, as he isn't ready to make that step up just yet.

But a league 1 team or maybe even a league 2 team might be a risk...
