What makes you say average? I saw at least one tweet where he was Blackpool's player of the month.Quite a few players from THAT U-17's WC winning squad have made the step-up and are having good careers in top-level football, but Kirby isn't one of those players (as, so far, is Brewster imo) and his lower league loan spells have seemingly been somewhat average.
Why then, would we bring Kirby in?, and what message does/would that send out to our youngsters at the club!!??
That's a bit silly isnt it?Quite a few players from THAT U-17's WC winning squad have made the step-up and are having good careers in top-level football, but Kirby isn't one of those players (as, so far, is Brewster imo) and his lower league loan spells have seemingly been somewhat average.

You don't think we'll sign one player this window? Or ever again?More names in the public view ... doubtful we get anyone of them.
Why not wait and see? Slagging players who nobody has seen but looking at his wiki makes you a fucking expert is strange?
Can you imagine in this day and age signing a striker from Donny for £30k there would be mass suicide on this forum

Plus he’s an attacking midfielder I can’t think who’s pathway he’d block maybe Ayari but I don’t think he’s ready for significant champ minutes just yet other than him we don’t really have an attacking midfielder coming through. He won’t block Ndiaye as it’s his shirt to lose at this point given he’s proven himself at champ level.This is just having a moan for the sake of it…
What does signing a 22 year old have to do with the prospects of a 17/18 year old… especially as PH has demonstrated he’s more than willing to give opportunities when the chance arises (how many debuts in the last year?).
I admit I don’t know anything about him I’ve never seen him play but palace have a good record of producing exciting homegrown players and this is pond we are shopping in.
There's a distinct gap between where our 17-21 year old youth products are and the first team. This is mainly due to the fact that several of the previous youth players haven't made the grade, and the fact that the PL spending didn't build any depth to the squad.That's a bit silly isnt it?
Kirby has played league football, hes been at Palace for years, won a World Cup, has some experience.... I think that our youngsters, that are younger than him, will welcome him in, why wouldnt they??
And, he knows Brewster already, but hey, let's just write him off straight away shall we.
Unfortunately, this is the pond were fishing in, it's time to get used to it.
Exactly, definitely worth a punt on a free.There's a distinct gap between where our 17-21 year old youth products are and the first team.

A 22 year old from a PL academy who hasn't really played enough football and now needs to kick on. We can assume that he's technically proficient but not shown anything as yet in the Professional game. He could flop, but he isn't in too much of a different position to Ndiaye at the start of last season and he's costings us very little.
And if he’s ‘blocking his pathway’ he must be doing pretty well, so it’s finePlus he’s an attacking midfielder I can’t think who’s pathway he’d block maybe Ayari but I don’t think he’s ready for significant champ minutes just yet other than him we don’t really have an attacking midfielder coming through. He won’t block Ndiaye as it’s his shirt to lose at this point given he’s proven himself at champ level.
I think a mention on this forum is the kiss of deathYou don't think we'll sign one player this window? Or ever again?
Lots of tweets from burton fans suggesting he’s training with them
