Like I've said before he should be starting for us in one of the attacking midfield positions. He is too small to ever make it in the PL as a defender but he's a really good player, I don't understand how powderpuff, languid showponies like Dowell and Lees-Melou get starts in advanced positions for us over him, he's exactly what we need The club know how good Bali Mumba is, he'll be in our first team next season. That's why despite signing a 4 year deal in 2020.... we gave him an extension in 2021. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Look at players like Idah who obviously need the same chance but instead are trying to learn their game in brief cameos against the best in the world. You must be joking!. We need this type of player and we need it now. The fact he is doing this for another team is madness. Do you really see that level of quality and think we need to send him off and nurture him? Are we doing better? Daft post. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Newtopia 519 Posted January 8, 2022 What a lovely goal, let’s hope he can do it whilst playing regularly in the Championship. Lampety is a fantastic right back, he is the same height so I am not convinced height is as defining feature as people think, if you are quick enough and assertive enough. I am more concerned that he seems to get injured and possibly looks a bit light weight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All we need to do is sign every player who scored a League Two goal of the month / season. Probably only cost us a few mill all in. Because that's what we need right? Players who can score against League Two opposition?

Put any of our fullbacks against League One Bristol Rovers and they'll tear them apart. Tzolis would look world class comparatively. We know this to be true because we bl**dy saw it with our own eyes against Bournemouth reserves. Even Sargent looked a quality forward option. Its fantastic opportunity for Mumba to develop as a player but he's understandably behind Williams, Aarons and Gianoullis who are all better players right now. Edit: it was against a League Two side. SARGENT would have scored a bloody hattrick This. We've seen ourselves over the last few years how big the gap is between the Premier League and the Championship, never mind League Two opposition. Lets just let Mumba get some Championship minutes under his belt and bring him back in the summer, presumably when we cash in on Aarons. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SARGENT would have scored a bloody hattrick I think what they're trying to say is a superior player has been sent out on loan while inferior players remain - he doesn't have to play fullback. In the game against Bournemouth Sargent did score two goals but there's no comparison - Mumba's goal is miles better than Sargent's two tap ins. Sargent just hasn't got the guile or skill to score a goal like that - not even against lower opposition. You need technique to succeed in this game - Sargent hasn't got any !
