Aiston Posted August 8 Share Posted August 8 They certainly haven't signed him for his stats, so looking forward to see how good they make him! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted August 8 Share Posted August 8 Pretty sure we didn't sign him for anything he did for Sheffield United in the Prem last season guys. They pretty much hung him out to dry Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He played intermittently for one of the worst teams in PL history who spent the vast majority of games defending. That's a perfect storm for a young inexperienced striker trying to impress, I'm essentially ignoring all of his stats for last season, he'll get plenty of minutes this season and I'll judge him purely on what I see, I think he'll do rather well tbh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
80 Posted August 8 Share Posted August 8 Our interviewers really know how to hang a young kid out to dry "So Will, I understand you're single. Obviously you'll know all about the famous nightlife here in Newcastle. Have you got any churches in mind for where you'll eventually get married?"

Couldn't hack it with Derby in his league one loan (2 goals and no assist in 16 appearances, mostly of the bench) when he was 19, so doubt he'd have set the Belgium or Dutch league on fire Edited August 8 by Unbelievable Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

andycap Posted August 8 Share Posted August 8 Straight into the first team squad. You don't get a locker with your name above it if your gonna be playing in the reserves like. Wicked willy looked well happy with this move. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They actually value younger players and are better environments for teaching the game and nurturing talent. Just seems to be more of the culture. There's a reason Brighton go down that route. Don't really trust league one and two teams at all in the same way. No chance. Osula would have been further along if he had gone down that route already.

The meticulous level we seem to be at in terms of scouting the right young players now is an absolute joy. Edited August 8 by Nine Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
