I was hoping for quite a bit more from this kid based on how pissed off West Ham supporting mates were when we signed him.

Same experience. By all accounts the talent is in there...

Struggled at QPR didn't he? My guess is another loan or nominal fee from a Championship/League 1/ Scottish club. 

 

 

 

 

As a right back, yeah. He was nowhere near that position on Saturday though. Another one where the performance > expectations.

I thought he did fairly well. Nothing spectacular, but was tidy on the ball and wasn't afraid to try and slip the ball forward. He looks a unit as well, definitely been on the chicken & rice since he came here.

What are we expecting from him? Steady bottom half club regular for most of his career? ie, we sell him to a West Ham or a Wolves in a year’s time? This season we keep him with us? Or does he cost us a squad place and we have to send him on loan?

Was the question I was asking. Maybe he’s had an epiphany and behind the scenes is trying to grab his last chance here to make an impression. We’ve a lot of games and relatively small squad. Certainly can’t be having 3 GKs on the bench at any point this season :lol:

he is 24 this year and was bad for QPR last season from what I can gather. He’ll play Championship at most.


QPR is a bit of a basket case of a club mind. Have a couple of friends that support them. Feels like every time we get to meet up they’ve got a new manager :lol:

What’s actually happening with Ashby? He’s fit but not ever an option? Howe hates his guts like

Injured isn’t he? Sure Howe said at one of the pressers recently.

 

edit:

 

"Unfortunately at the moment Harrison is injured and he has been injured for a period of time with a thigh injury so we are waiting for him to be fit again."

EH was asked about him in the Brighton press conference - said he was injured (not that Harrison Ashby and the word injured in the same sentence are a surprise)

Always thought this was a weird transfer 

I would say speculative than weird like the kid we signed from man city who was meant to be training with their first team.

 

His age and lack of first team action should have been a red a flag. Had decent loans so cant say we haven't given him a chance to excel. 

 

Wonder how long he has left on his deal?

Thats why it’s weird.  He was 20 with barely any professional games anywhere.
