    "When we let Rob go on loan last season, we only had one player that can go one-v-one in TC [Tyreece Campbell]."

    "Now we have him, we have Karlan Grant, we have Rob Apter, we have Millenic Alli and we are looking at bringing in another one as well. We are going to have five one-v-one options which is what we need.”

    Campbell - Grant - Apter - Alli - One More

    I would say last year TC taking on and winning a one-v-one was rarer than hen's teeth, same with Apter, so let's see where we go next year...
    TC was in the top 20 championship wingers for successful take ons per 90. He probably gets the ball a lot less than the players on that list too. Of that 20, only 6 of that group had a better % success rate than TC 

    He’s one of the best in the league 1v1, what he needs to get better at is what comes next

    Utter nonsense
    Is it!...I have seen TC take on and get past the full back as much as the next man thanks, but constantly try to do it again and run out of ideas, winning a one-v-one means just that, getting past and creating something from that action, I like TC and want him to do well, but he is so frustrating to watch at times...
    Many things to be frustrated with by TC, such as lack of end product, bottling challenges, doing a sad face and refusing to celebrate on the rare occasion he has a goal contribution...

    But let's not pretend he is not effective at beating his man, drawing fouls from opposition, driving us up the pitch with his dribbling. Even on a bad day he would contribute in these areas.

    TC has a lot of assets in the way he drives forward with the ball, draws fouls and beats his player. And he does track back too.

    I don't even think his crossing with his left foot is that bad. It's not brilliant of course, but watching the World Cup a lot of wingers these days aren't that great at crossing.

    What lets him down is his shooting. The modern winger is expected to cut inside onto his stronger foot, and produce a decent finish. Too often he either hits a defender because he hasn't worked the space well enough or skies the shot.

    Fevrier's shooting was better than TC's last season. Going back a few seasons, Blackett-Taylor's shooting was a LOT better than TC's.

    Don’t know how true, as I’m only taking this info off of someone from X, but they’re claiming we’ve now officially made an offer for Jordan Holsgrove. 
    That guy just makes stuff up. He also claims Kanu is going on loan despite Cawley pretty much ruling that out last night
    He's constantly making things up, every time quoting it as 'official'. Asked him on Twitter what his source was, and turns out it was the Telegraph article from end of last week re. Werder Bremen, and all it said it that we had also
    'shown interest'.

    Can never get my head around 20 year olds sat on their phones making up stuff and then posting it as 'official' - whatever that means! The only thing that is official is that they've officially made it up...

    I wonder if the club are playing hardball with Kanu ie sign a new, longer, deal or leave now. If he signs then a loan to L1 is fine.

    Or maybe we just want/need the money a sale would generate to fund other deals plus we need to trim the squad size.
    Think it's a bit of both. I would hope we don't need the money but we do need the squad space. I am surprised he hasn't moved on already, I'd have thought there would be a few clubs willing to pay for him
    If we're asking for around £1m I would have thought the top end of League 1 would be starting a queue. Especially Plymouth who have the money to spend. 
    I'm sorry, but if we're only asking a million, considering last season, it would be a steal. And, yes, I know he's in the last year of his contract...

    I would hope we're asking for more, and playing hardball. After all, we don't need to sell. And it's a seller's market.
    There be a big sell on 
    Ooh arrr how be you know such things Farmer Ronnie?
    Because any young player sold will have big sell on if they come good … normally make the asking price little lower for a bigger sell on

    Totally agree. There has always been a lack of conviction in the way he shoots. He does all the hard work then leans back and hits a token effort towards the goal, as if he were kicking a ball off a wall.

    well if he didn’t I don’t see why every single one of our attacks last season was give the ball to TC and let him run.

    Don't get Ronnie started.

    If Ronnie was manager, TC would never have been given a pro contract let alone a 1st team debut.

    TC would have ended up playing for Welling Utd or whatever - and being signed by Millwall for £6mil :p

    If sold I'd be amazed if we got a million(although we'd never know), and I'd be surprised if he went to a club challenging for a play-off spot.

    If we had any decent offers for TC I’d cash in.  His final product whether it be crosses or goals is very poor . I’d definitely look at extending Ramsey’s and Jones’s contracts.

    To echo what others have said, I think Chalobah improves us, it’s whether we keep him fit. Personally, if the budget was there and he would accept a club average wage, I’d sign him. 

    Saying that, if we are in for Holsgrove is that too many players, with Coventry / JRC, in that DM role?  

    What does the midfield look like with Doc / Cov / Hols / Chalobah / Mwamba / Knibbs / Carey / JRC..(think that’s all) as the central options?


    I feel he may be another Camara signing. Bit worried on the injury record for this one. 
    So, we want a younger Chalobah. Without his injury record...

    Anyone got a couple of mill down the back of their sofa?

    We’re pissing in the wind if we think a league one side is going to pay 1m for him.  I actually think he’s worth keeping , there’s definitely a great striker in there somewhere.

    You have to take into account it was his first Champ season, he spent a fair bit of time at wing back, and he was often our only pacey outlet which meant he had less space to work with than he’ll ideally have.

    I can see him offering more this season if he stays - now we can rotate him, he’s gained Champ experience and we’ll hopefully have improved our team and squad. He’d have had an assist last night had Godden been on the pitch when he put that low ball across the box, and then we’d be talking about him showing more end product. 
  • Also had confirmation Kanu is up for 1M
    Don’t think we should accept anything less. Young, talented, eye for goal and all round ability. Not sure he will make Championship just yet, but the potential is certainly there.
