It's similar in many ways to Kanu - who likewise had a clear goalscoring ability but questions about his physicality relative to senior level games.Chunes said:Think the difference between Casey & Mbick is that the latter is more physically ready which is why we've seen more of him. Casey has a very slight build.
Hopefully it will continue to be similar and Casey can also add a bit of muscle and stature to improve his all round game, as Kanu did.0 -
They played very well together for the under 18s last Saturday. Whilst Casey is small he is muscular and made a mug of a much bigger Watford defender who ended up on the ground. He scored with great header from a cross from M'Bick.Chunes said:Think the difference between Casey & Mbick is that the latter is more physically ready which is why we've seen more of him.

Brighton can have him if they give us Ferguson in exchange.4

Leave him be. His progress so far has been good, it doesn’t need spoiling.
Anyway all aspects of his game are indifferent apart from the ability to score shedloads of goals 😉1 -
Casey is the stereotypical poacher. Not very fast, doesn’t hold the ball up well but knows how to find space and finish. That’s why he goes long stretches where he is invisible but then somehow ends up scoring two. It is really hard to evaluate kids who fit this mold as many dont step up well to league football, some do and then you have someone like Alfie who it took until his late 20s to succeed. He clearly has talent so you hang on to him until you feel fairly certain he will or won’t be playing in the main squad which probably won’t be for another couple years4
