Chris Eagles? (3 Viewers)

AFCCOVENTRY · Oct 14, 2015

From what I remember he is very good at set pieces which will definately help. We are not that great at set pieces.

Have a feeling Mogga is preparing I advance on next window when we might lose some loan players.

SlowerThanPlatt · Oct 14, 2015

Probably a recomendation from Sam Ricketts considering they played at Bolton together.

AFCCOVENTRY · Oct 14, 2015

He's only 29. Thought he was older. Made his debut quite young at Man U.

Should be in his prime now.

Experienced front line of Fleck, JOB, MAF, Tuggy

With kids around them of Rubén, Arma, Murph, Kent

This would be a great signing for us. This is another example of how TM can attract a better class of player.

jimmyhillsfanclub · Oct 14, 2015

So Eagles is the New kid in town.....good stuff.

....but lets not get too excited.....in fact, lets take it easy.

hope hes not come to us as a last resort.

Maybe while hes training with us, Skyblueweeman can book him into the hotel california

SlowerThanPlatt · Oct 14, 2015

End of JOB?

ready_96 · Oct 14, 2015

Fortune, Eagles, Ricketts....feels weird for us to be signing players that dont require me to check there wiki page and stalk there previous clubs forum to find out if they're any good haha

The power of the mowbray is drawing in them in from afar and long may it continue. Imagine what he'd have got in with an extra million in the kitty!?

SkyBlueZack · Oct 14, 2015

Could he possibly play in the midfield two with Vincelot? Or would he be too attacking? Certainly would give us options

matesx · Oct 14, 2015

Kieran Crowley says its not happening

.... so i believe him

torchomatic · Oct 14, 2015

Clearly not, but to try and get into a winning team, playing great football with a great fan base and manager?

Evo1883 · Oct 14, 2015

Have to admit , mowbray is making us look a real team here whilst we seemingly have nothing financially ..bizzarre yet amazing and exciting at the same time

He'll be in the squad against Blackpool, would put a fiver on it

I had a fiver on him scoring first goal 5 games ago and the buggar didn't even turn up

I wonder if this is the ex Premiership player that has been begging Mogga to take him on?

That was Fortune.

Nick · Oct 14, 2015

Has it been confirmed?

Only thing that's been confirmed is that he's training with us.

shmmeee · Oct 14, 2015

Sign a right back!!!

Believe that was a midfielder.

SlowerThanPlatt · Oct 14, 2015

Needs to prove his fitness apparently

Slightly harsh on Kieren given he said it wasn't happening months ago. May have been absolutely nothing in this till very recently.

Yeah, Crowley's just said that this has only cropped up in the last week. Still a bit silly to tweet some of the things he did.

i take your point ,i wasnt aware it was a old tweet. but it shows how things can change in football.

Chipfat · Oct 14, 2015

This might be the experienced player TM was talking about before, he said money was not an issue and he just wanted a chance to play. At 29 with lots of knowledge he could be good to have around the changing room with the kids we have. If it is him TM is just wanting to see if he fits into the dynamic of the team and is somebody that will not disrupt or lead the younger ones into bad habits.

Eagles ability has never been an issue, he is a very good player and someone that is a level above L1 which is what you are looking for as a club. A contract to the end of the season with options to extend would be a very good signing if he fits in with the squad environment...

Those foundations SP claims he laid must be rock solid,

bringbackrattles · Oct 14, 2015

You have to say if Eagles is here it is a great coup by Mowbray. Whatever the reason is for him to drop down to League One as he is a quality player,who gives a toss as it proves we are attracting players we couldn't before. At this level he should be scoring and creating plenty so I can't wait to see him in the Sky Blue. Great news !

covcity4life · Oct 14, 2015

just seen his youtube vids. wow lets hope he gets fit and can do similar for cov

maybe posh home game he might be signed for?

Hobo · Oct 14, 2015

Seems odd that if he can still cut the mustard, why he is still without a club. I am not going to get excited about this just yet, but trust Mowbrey will be casting a shrewd eye over him in training.

junglej13 · Oct 14, 2015

This news seems to have been greeted very positively by most but I'm not sure. There have been huge question marks about Eagles attitude for years. I trust Mowbrays judgement but this could be an unnecessary risk I think.

Astute · Oct 14, 2015

Sort it out Mowbray. What are you doing signing Man Utd castoffs?

In fairness the horrors of Neil Wood and Connor Brown remind me of where we've had our fingers burnt in that regard!
