Femi Seriki

[EddieColquhoun]

However, the point I was making previously is that far too many on here think it's an easy progression from U23s and have little or no awareness of the gulf between the levels.

Can't remember ever reading on here somebody claiming that it is an "easy progression". Who are these people?

Unfortunately I have neither the time nor inclination to sift through the thousands of posts on there (you're welcome to do so to prove me wrong so you wish) but there have been plenty of calls for U23s to promoted to the first team and play games - that harks back to even McCabe believing the 2011 Youth Cup Final team was strong enough to base the team around and plenty since believing that players such as Semple, Wright, Dimaio , DdG, Slater, right through to the current batch of U23s.

Good debut. Still looks a bit raw but very direct and looks to push forward at any opportunity. Put some good crosses in as well.

 

[EddieColquhoun]

We're looking for a RWB

This is why loaning our player out is integral. I’d be much happier if we loaned both Osula and Jebbison out for a season and brought in someone like Grabben

Absolute class sub appearance today

 

[Iceybabey]

Been waiting for this kid to blow. Missed the game through work. How did he get on?

Well he looked fabulous going forwards.

 

[BladeInIreland]

Much better with him and Brooks down the right.

 

[Shawy24]

A work in progress. But he can be trusted.

 

[FTPE]

EXCELLENT cameo today!
Absolutely fearless like all the other youn 'uns coming through.

 

[nopigfansintown]

One massive interception when he covered for a centre back. Great going forwards. Won almost every challenge. Well done lad

What we never saw in his underripe appearances with Hecky was his acceleration. Now he gets the ball, knocks it past the opponent and waves on the way past.

 

[Almosthuman]

Our academy is shit hot. Some reyt talent coming out of it ATM.

 

[Toronto Blade]

He enjoyed a very good performance today!

 

[Brynner]

Looks great going forward. Well pleased with that performance.

 

[Sheffsteel]

Some very impressive wing play, better than either Brooks or Raki Saki.

For any old uns out there, he reminded me of Colin Morris how he went on the outside with so much confidence using trickiness with short bursts of pace.

 

[niktheblade]

When him and brookes came on I messaged my mate to say that their left hand side is about to get butt f*cked.

Seriki is going to have some career.

 

[Sparky_Blade]

Was Femi the lad that when on loan In Scotland but had it cut short?

Yes

 

[Ted Maul]

Was Femi the lad that when on loan In Scotland but had it cut short?

Yes

That was Buyabu, Femi was unused at Rotherham.

 

[jt64]

Has looked excellent so far this season, makes what looked like a bizarre (to me at least at the time) decision to loan Curtis out seem more reasonable

 

[Silent Blade]

That was Buyabu, Femi was unused at Rotherham.

I stand corrected!

 

[Stretch]

I was worried about depth at RB when the season started, but with Seriki and Shackleton as back ups I think we are fine. Both bring something very different to the role as well.

 

[mattbianco1]

He was great.

Reminds me of when Michail Antonio was a right back

Big hopes for him

 

[Striker]

He's come back this year looking a real unit. There's a great prospect emerging I think.

 

[Ldn_Rd_Blades]

I like the fact we start with Gilchrist who stays back and makes a 3 in defence and when we want to attack more we bring seriki on.

 

[metalblade]

I've been impressed with this lad when I've seen him I think he is going to have a very good career, one to watch.

 

[Bla blade]

Needs to be careful not to over elaborate or go too gung-ho but yes he looked very good. Doubt he would be a good starter or if he did he’d have to rein it in a bit

 

[Nedski]

I don't understand how he struggled to get any minutes at Rochdale and Rotherham.

While he's not going to be first choice, I love that we can bring him and Brooks on against tiring defences.

I thought Buyabu would be the one to come through this season but he seems to have regressed a little while Seriki has looked very good.
