Haven''t seen another thread, and maybe the event got a bit lost amongst the win and Cam''s great goal, but congrats to him on making his Championship debut.Heres to another young player, that we paid buttons for establishing himself in the team.The futures bright!

I''ve heard good reports of him and hopefully he can provide cover for Tettey who''s not getting any younger. When''s Dorrans back?

If Godfrey can prove himself then he can stay in the middle and Dorrans can slot into the Brady role no problem.

Thought Tettey played well yesterday but pleased to see Godfrey on as well.

A fantastic prospect for the future.

[Hoola Han Solo 448]

Dorrans for left back?

A fantastic prospect for the future.[/quote]Its an important aspect of our long term future, developing good young players, rather than basically paying someone else to develop them for us.

He''s a big strong lad, was surprised how powerful he looked for a young lad when I saw him warming up. Pleased that Alex got him on, although from his interview it sounded as if he had no choice but to take Alex off as he was unwell.

Indeed. I would have liked to have seen Maddison play a role yesterday but I''m not surprised that he wasn''t even on the bench.

Ah. Didn''t know that.

Was that the case with Pritchard as well?

What are people thinking his best position is?

Looks like the build of a CM for me but I''m sure AN has said he doesn''t see it his best position. Seen him play RB a few times.

Definitely looks a prospect

[Alfie54 76]

Really like what I''ve seen of him, I hope he now is close to more starts. Like to see him and Howson together

He can also play on the left of midfield, though he doesn''t know it yet.

Are the phrases "Stomach bug doing the rounds at Colney" and "Colney facilities putting prospective signings off" connected in any way?

Good lad, knew his job was to shield the defence and not go on glory hunting runs a la Johnson.

[The Bristol Nest 513]

I heard that he is being lined up as a CB. That''s fine as a modern CB needs to be able to play out as well as block.

Either way it is good news.

What an excellent and concise response.

Precisely, couldn''t agree more. You obviously don''t do irony.
