Nothing linking him to Cov, but I do wonder what the staff thinks of Duncan McGuire. Reported offers over the last month from Wednesday, Blackburn, and a couple of continental clubs as well.

Was excellent in his first MLS season. Great in-the-box movement and classic poacher #9. Play style reminds me a lot of Godden but with a bigger frame. Orlando has a history of pulling strikers out of university and quickly developing them. Did the same with Daryl Dike (West Brom) and Cyle Larin (Mallorca). However, with all the money spent on Wright and Simms in the summer, I just don't think they reach down and spend the $$ necessary though.



Tom Bogert (the MLS/American version of Fabrizio) on his situation.



Why’s Micky Gynn presenting that video?

Except the fact he was shite when we played him down the middle and only started to look good when he played on the left?????
If he was the "centre forward" he wouldn't have to exclusively operate centrally. He could still operate in the left forward slot...

Is Oscar Bobb that unrealistic? Be a great signing on paper, but I’m not sure there’s a PL club that he’s getting regular game time for. Aside from maybe one of the bottom 3 or 4, which would probably be bad for his development anyway.

And coming to a Championship side would be good ? The bottom 3 are only just better than they were last season, which was Championship.

Looks like a good prospect on paper but can't see Man City wanting anything less than stupid money for a potential starlet.

A hopeless dream. And we move on.

He is also 21 in July and not home grown, born in Norway so he has to be in the 25 man Man City first team squad or on loan and they are only allowed 8 I believe. City are another club with loads of U/21 players and believe it or not ffp issues.

Ok, so, pretend I know absolutely nothing about this "Bobb". Somebody tell me how good he is.
"He plays for Man City" is not acceptable.....
Josh Wilson Esbrand played in the Champions League for Man City.
Are people getting a little over excited about this one??..... (Because he has played a couple of games for Man City)??????

Yes he’s unrealistic
Couple of questions then.

How much game time is he getting while they’re in a fight for the PL now KDB, Doku, and Grealish are fit? Next to none.

Is going to a bottom side who have very little of the ball a good thing? Does he start regularly for anyone bar Sheff Utd, and Luton? I’m not convinced he does.

Crystal Palace? Fulham? Any number of top flight European clubs? Even if we accepted he was moving to the championship you've got the likes of Leeds, Southampton, Leicester......

On the flip side, you want to send a player to a club where they’re almost guaranteed lots of game time.

In that sense, we’re just as good a destination.

Club is so different now the fans will not get word of anything going on behind the scenes. Doug will be doing all the calling round with Austin and if something can be done it will be.

We would of been talking to agents and testing out clubs, but its no good panicking or being pressured into something. We just need to relax and let the club follow the plan that is undoubtedly in place.
