Okai, Southend really rate him, app he is a neat and tidy player with a nice touch, neat footwork, pace, and an eye for a killer pass! Southend couldn't afford his wages so him and a player called O'Keefe went looking for other clubs. He did trail with Q.P.R and app impressed, maybe the signing of Taraabt put Warnock off?

Afternoon,

Southend United fan here.

I have seen a few comments on here mentioning, 'a free transfer from Southend he can't be that good can he?' a few of our players, Adam Barrett (Crystal Palace), Simon Francis (Charlton) , Alan McCormack (Charlton) and Steve Mildenhall (Millwall) have all gone to bigger clubs. The players we had last year I believe where good enough to get us promoted if they had a proper squad of 20 around them, this was not the case and with repeated appearances in court and money problems we where relegated (this looks to be sorted now, who knows though?)

Franck Moussa is a good attacking CENTER MIDFIELDER, he was played on the wing a lot, but I believe his best position is in the middle. He plays a nice pass, has a good shot on him, has good work rate and is very composed on the ball. Obviously not every Southend fan will agree with me, but the majority will, like everything. he is a very creative player, and came through the ranks with us. I'm not sure if he is too much up for a battle, but definitely would add some creativity to any team. Remember he is still only young. He is good enough for Championship football, maybe not regularly but he will push for a place, no doubt in my mind.

MOOOUUUUUUSSSSSEEE! Feed the Moose and he will score, Feed the Moose and he will score!

Hope this helps.

Good luck for this season.

EDIT - Oh and not only that, he smashed one in against Col U scum, when we won 1 - 0 a season or two ago.

Here is a thread on our forum about him http://www.shrimperzone.com/vb/showthread.php?62681-Moussa-amp-O-Keefe

Many thanks, he sounds a rather good prospect.

Good ball players with technical ability are the kind of players we appear to be going for, and he sounds as though as he has the potential to become just such a player. The only thing is that as a CM he will need to be patient as he has to compete with Wellens, King, Oakley and Moreno for a spot in that position. Still, a good prospect and I imagine he'll get the odd run-out in cup matches.

We sure could do with a proper reserve fixture list.

Thanks for this Dave, let's hope goes on to do as well in the game as another highly rated young lad who I saw playing against us at Roots Hall (first game after McGhee went to Woves) called Chris Powell. I wonder what he's up to these days?

I used to watch Southend quite a bit when I lived in Benfleet. You always seemed to produce talented players that went on to other places.

All the best for the new season and I hope you can keep the club going in these tough times.

I always enjoy an highly rated lower league signing :thumbup:

I hate to say this but I totally signed him on FM09. :ph34r:

Ah that's a relief, thought I was going to be the first one to make a football manager comment. :D

I had him with Southend on FM10 and he was quality, snapped up by Forest after only half a season. Based on that, this guy has got to be a success, surely?

This isn't snapping up a talented 17 year old on a hunch. 100 games for Southend suggests that the worst he can be is mediocre. Nice surprise signing this.

Agreed, didn't even realise he was without a club so it is a nice surprise. Hopefully he'll be in the squad tomorrow.

Didn't we pay £300k+ for Moreno ?

You could well be right according to the OS it was an undisclosed fee.

Your turn to correct me thumbsup.gif

The Arsenal of the Championship is what we are. :D

Am I right in saying that Sousa hasn't signed an English player yet? Not a stat that will please all.

we have plenty of british talent coming through the youth team, so fear not...

Euros not pounds...:thumbup:

As anyone knows, euros like pistachio ice cream do not count!

I'm sure i read somewhere on here it was for £330,000.

The OS says undisclosed. So any figure is just someone's guess work.

£12 million is my guess.

Anyway, good to see another player join.
