toontownman Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Being guarded in regards to playing him until he signs a contract? Surely already the best winger we have. so don't play him so he signs a new contract? what a strategy, can't fail Didn't say it made sense. Certainly the type of logic our hierarchy uses though. I can cope with a certain amount of blooding in time and wrapping him in cotton wool, just not when he is head and shoulders above the rest of our wingers in terms of talent. Has to feature more.

Sign or else we don't play you, let you rot etc. Reduce his chances of getting a top contract at a real team. Tell him if he signs we'll sell him in 2 years time anyway.

SEMTEX Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 We're only two games in. Plenty of time to play hard ball. Either way we'll get *some* money for him, so we're canny. We'll just get about 3 times more should we keep him for a few years and sell him off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Recoba Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Good game. Glided past the Northampton right back over and over with a simple move. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMTW Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Felt for him a bit tonight. Made some runs in behind but no one ever played the ball over the top. Haidara isn't good enough in my opinion and I think I'd rather see us get a LB than a CB at present. Every ball forward was lofty and with Aarons back to goal. Disappointed Aarons didn't make more of his time on the pitch though. Don't recall him opening his legs up much. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
xLiaaamx Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 Decent play for the first goal. Dreadful after that. Only young though, not going to go right every time he plays Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 Good game. Glided past the Northampton right back over and over with a simple move. Really? Nowt came off for him all night, in not even sure I saw him go past a fullback until about 80 mins after he was put to left back. I'm a big fan of him but he had a shocker.

Guest Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 He'll have games like that. I'd be surprised if he's played 10 career matches yet and there's already a weight of expectation on him. I've no doubts he'll be quality but last night will happen time to time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrettNUFC Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 He went on a mazy run in first half and went past a few players, then in the second half when he was at left back. Bar that it was performance of his off days in the reserves. Haidara didn't help him out at all with his passing up the line, sold him short time and time again. Expected Aarons to really put himself in the mix for a starting berth but this did him no favours. Tbf to him, he was on fire pre-season and should have been one of the first on team sheet against Southampton, he's now hardly played since pre-season so should be little surprise if he's went off the boil to an extent.

captainhaircut Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 He went to left back when Haidara went off? I assumed Colback filled in there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marmoset Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 He's young, he'll be inconsistent for a while yet, it's nothing to worry about. We've all seen his potential quality when he has a good game. He's the kind who should be able to perform coming off the bench so as long as he keeps getting regular game time I've no problem with him not starting yet.

James Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 Should always be a wild card for us this season rather than someon we expect to start and perform week in week out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Figures 1-0 Football Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 I'd send him on loan to a decent Championship team, where he will play every week. Getting kicked by the shit teams in the Championship will toughen him up a bit and the confidence gained from playing in a good team/doing well will also.

Figures 1-0 Football Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 I'd send him on loan to a decent Championship team, where he will play every week. Getting kicked by the s*** teams in the Championship will toughen him up a bit and the confidence gained from playing in a good team/doing well will also. Dafuq did I just read? Why not? What will he achieve sitting on our bench and not playing regularly? I'm a firm believer that players need to play football to progress (ie, Armstrong). He's not good enough to start atm, so he will be limited to 20 minutes here and there. If we are keeping him long term, he will come back a better player - if we are going to sell him, then of course there is no point. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Figures 1-0 Football Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Just to add - we are talking about a 19 year old who has only played 5 competitive games for us, he's never been out on loan or played competitive football on a regular basis. He was out injured for a majority of last season, of course he needs to play regularly! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
