Ofoborh may be well built but he is only 5'9" so not the Vieira-type people may think he is. Having said that he certainly looks to be a fine physical specimen.
From the clips I have seen of him he tends to play more on the right side of midfield or as a right back sometimes. He is not the creative type as his attempted through-balls were not great but he made a few decent interceptions and his defensive positioning looked solid.
He scored a thunderbolt against MK Dons too - worth looking it up if it's on youtube0 -
I reckon he’s had s tip off about the new masseuse who’d putting the spring into chucks step and he fancies s bit of it - he’s probably paying us to join0

Whether it's a consequence of the last 2 or 3 years or has just happened it seems an area we are short in.
It's hard to get behind a rebuilding project when you only sign players in their late 20s or early (even mid) 30s or loans you have no realist chance of signing medium term.
I think if you look at the 23+ range we have lost a lot of players that would be the core of a half decent championship side.
I think it maybe the rest of other factors at play. If you look at the current u23s there are a lot of "external" players then quite a gap to Henry and Barker.
Morgan and Doughty, but nobody else really knocking on the door in terms of outfield players in the 19-22 year old age group other than perhaps Vennings. No centre backs or strikers who could have done a job during our recent injury problems, indeed it's quite unusual to see a Charlton side with NO home grown defenders at all, when you consider the number who have come through down the years
On Tuesday we probably won't have an academy player in the 18. I am not sure AMB counts.
I do wonder if we are starting to see the "being out of the Premier league" effect impact our early years recruitment and we aren't compensating with the likes of Aribo and Lookman as we were.
Maybe I am barking up the wrong tree but, for me, it looks like an area on concern.
With the amount of First Team kids we've churned out this last decade or so I always felt that there would come a time when that conveyor belt would slow down a bit eventually, and that we'd go through a bit of a blip
Definitely agree that we're potentially suffering from being out of the Premier League now though; Barker | Henry | Vennings, even Morgan (who like you say will be suspended on Tuesday, hence not having an Academy Player in that squad), are they truly good enough for the Premier League some day, or will they be solid Championship or lower Football League standard?
The likes of AMB, Barker and Henry certainly have a chance as well.
Biggest impact may have been players who left or chose other clubs while in the younger age groups. Not being in the Prem may have been the difference between them coming through our academy or going elsewhere.

Not sure how true this is but I grew up in Bournemouth and have lots of bournemouth supporting mates, one of them just told me that Ofoborh has had a big falling out with Tindall and Tindall “allegedly chinned him!”0

We were "linked" with him last year (can't remember which window). We don't need another striker & in any case his goal scoring record is poor. It's a no from me.2

Looking at the clubs "linked" with him in the follow up tweet, Bristol Rovers, Crewe and Fleetwood would make more sense. Can't see Sunderland being interested either
