    Where are we getting these names from ? I am withdrawing my application to be the announcer, but don't tell Bikey please.

    It's good that the management is looking at a variety of players .. there are a lot of good ones on the market .. what we do not want is hasty decisions and unsuitable signings .. I am sure that Peeters knows exactly what he wants
  • He was pretty highly rated at Arsenal before they released him. Remember being OK at Birmingham.

    Boavista FC[edit]

    Quincy signed a one-year contract with Portuguese Primeira Liga club Boavista on 27 August 2014.[43]


    that lasted long then
  • I remember him playing a reserve match down Valley for Arsenal, think he broke the world record for the number of stepovers in a game.

  • Very good technical forward. A bit of an attitude problem however ... Maybe BP will sort that out :)

    he looks to have a bit of pace and a decent stepover. willing to take players on but finishes like Simon Church.

    With pace like that and a spongefoot, he would probably beat his own shot into the goal.

    Now all we need is the FL to change the rules and award points for step overs and Bob's yer uncle Fanny's yer aunt...
  • Used to be a beast on Football manager :-0
  • Doesn't like getting back to defend. Has a history not showing up (late). However ... is a very good player.

    So he could be our Drenthe, all the talent but not the attitude/commitment to go with it, if Bob thinks he can change that then i say welcome aboard, not like we have too many options right now.

    When he first came through at Arsenal I thought he looked quality, must've lost his way over the years following.

    Well at least we'll win the 'most double-barrelled players in a team' award.

    Looking at that youtube video, I'm surprised pardew hasn't signed him yet........

    28 and not a regular goal scorer but it's only a trial.

    The tricks and pace could add to what we have in the squad if the trial works out.

    Seems that with this guy and OO we are keeping an eye on players available having been released and not wanted in Europe. No problem with that as could be few bargains and a few hungry players keen to make good.

    I think you are right Henry, can't be anything but a trial, we can't buy or loan, he can't cancel his contract and we sign him, against the rules. He only signed with Boavista at the beginning of this season, we will have to wait and see.
