He got to see first hand how ineffective we are at being a professional football team. I'm sure it'll stand him in good stead.

Why we take him down and not even put him on the bench why it's stupid Frankie is a better prospect than Sims.

Instead we put 2 keepers on the bench absolute madness.

I thought the same thing myself. He had more joy against that big Bolton defender (Santos?) than anyone else.

I only saw him for the first time yesterday and I would say he is still a long way from the first team yet!

Agree on both points here. I think he has a fair bit of potential though. Physically very capable just needs to sharpen up on some technical attributes which will come in time.

Him & cannon have us pretty covered for young strikers with potential, especially as they are different types of players.

This touches on what I find a little disappointing with players coming through because I assume he has spent year in an academy and technically he should be sound already. Decision making will come in time, but there shouldn't really be a lot to work on technically by the time they get to the first team. It is more of an adjustment to playing against men instead of boys.

The other thing is this lad scored 4 goals in PL2 and 8 in the U18s. Cannon scored 8 in the Championship. I think there is a massive gulf between them, albeit Cannon is just under 2 years older.

Long term contract signed this has surprised me I thought he might look to move on so we must have offered him a decent contract maybe a loan deal on the cards. 
pleased he’s staying.
