This guy is usually right

Just posted it on the other thread, yeah he's quite reliable. Another centre half adding fuel to the Willis gone fire.

 

[Tommo1993]

One for the development squad I reckon.

 

[Bertola]

Now confirmed

We normally announce at 5. wonder if there is a second one today.

 

[torchomatic]

One for the development squad I reckon.

Dom Hyam was too. We have zillions of centre backs now.

Hyam seems to have indirectly replaced him as the Dagenham loanee centre half for that season.

But no, no clue. We'll see if he's a Hyam, or a Neil Wood soon enough.

 

[Winny the Bish]

Was very highly rated at one point, with Arsenal trying to get him as a kid. Was hampered by some injuries that stopped his development after those loans.

 

[Nick]

Have a fair few CBs now including Rose.

I guess with Willis / Davies going we now have extra cover before we even get to Williams etc.

We could send players like Williams out on loan.

 

[Esoterica]

When he joined Gillingham on loan a couple of seasons back he described himself as a centre back who can also playing holding midfield. Ought to be comfortable on the ball in that case.

 

[SkyBlueDom26]

Willis deffo gone then! Isn't it promising signing players on 3yr deals though!

 

[ccfc1234]

Dom Hyam was too. We have zillions of centre backs now.

I think we are signing more as the likes of Thompson and Drysdale maybe not as far along or as talented as MR hoped they would be. Willis must be nailed on to leave now, which is a shame as his pace and reading of the game saved us many goals last season.

 

[Otis]

6' 2". Is that exactly, or 'about?'

 

[procdoc]

Can also play right back so possibly cover for the new right back from Chelsea

 

[covcity4life]

How many cbs is that now 6? Would like to keep willis so dont hsve to play likes of Thompson but i doubt that is likely

 

[SkyBlueCRJ]

I've not read anything that suggests he can/or ever has played at RB? He can either play at CDM or CB according to his West Ham profile.

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

We've got more competition at U23 CB than the 1st team!

Don't think we really needed another CB - that's 7 now (8 if you include Willis). Hopefully he'll be another Hyam, but I think the budget needed using for other positions first.

I get the impression Thompson will be disappearing rather soon. After a couple of appearances last year he didn’t seem to trouble the squad again, even seeing Williams coming in for a game.

Willis is as good as gone and I can see Thompson probably being loaned out. That leaves 4 senior CB's and 2 development CB's. Think that's about right to be honest.

Yeah, 7 is too many. Maybe Thompson WILL go out loan as has been suggested.

Gillingham fans saying he likes to wrestle players in the box and handballs a lot.

We had fans saying good riddance to luke thomas because missed some good chances

Fan judgement tends to be fucked

Yay is something that can be worked on and coached out of him though easily enough.

 

[ccfc92]

Just passing on their thoughts Hopefully, it will be a great signing for us.

 

[Deity]

I watch a lot of football but can’t say I know anything about Pask. Amazed how many fans reacted so positively immediately after the announcement ....

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Wrestling players is one thing - as others have said, can be coached out of him. Handballs are random as a defender - tends just to be luck / bad luck. If he keeps doing it we can use him as a back up keeper!

Apparently he punched the ball in the box, last minute of a game :facepalm::joyful:

 

[better days]

I've seen him play quite a few times
A very good player
He started off as a goal scoring centre forward in youth football before West Ham converted him to a CB
He's got decent pace and is a calm, footballing CB not unlike Hyam
Pask had a serious medical problem shortly after joining Daggers (appendicitis?) which kept him out for several months and I believe Hyam was brought in to replace him
When I saw that Pask had been released by West Ham I thought he would be a possibility for us
He might be able to play in front of the defence like Declan Rice does

 

[SAJ]

Hyam

Perhaps we are going to play a 352 formation.

 

[Bertola]

sounds like Aaron Phillips!

with reference to the handballs...
