100% the exact type of player we need to be signing. 18 year old Left Back from Walsall, L1 team of the year, Walsall young player, keen and has pace!

Now, we all know we won't sign him, we aren't smart enough or proactive enough to sign these types, but for whoever signs him, he will be a great find for them in my opinion.
 

There's no way we'd even consider paying as much as they'd want for him.

Purchasing good young players with sell on value isn't what United like doing.
 
Good shout.

We've signed flo (loaned there from Stoke), brandy, westlake and butler from Walsall after they were all identified as promising league one players. What makes you think we couldn't sign another one of their most promising players?
 
Save this thread for a couple of months time as a loan suggestion for when he goes to a Premier League team.
 
He's to good for league 1, he'll be off in the summer to rot in a prem reserve squad!
 
Yes the type of player we would all like to be signing, but anyone who thinks he is a realistic target hasn't got a clue about football transfers!

If he played tonight he must do some of that Hammond not seen stuff, Walsall were tosh.

Rico, SKA legend
 
If he leaves Walsall, it will be for a lower Prem/ upper championship team for a fee similar to what Jamie Murphy commanded I reckon.
 
Barnsley made him look very ordinary in the two playoff games,and Sawyers had little effect,he seems to be on the slide performance wise,maybe he is just fed up at Walsall.
 

Arsenal and Man City have both had him scouted too. Ricky is correct that he would be a loan option.

HeCanDoMagic - I thought he was their most dangerous player at the Lane to be honest. He's an excellent prospect.

I didnt think they had a dangerous player on show, together with Burton, they were the blandest sides to visit the Lane.

And to show you just how bad our season was, Colchester turned in the best performance of the season.

Back on topic - I really think Kieron Wallace can make the left back spot his, but Im still a bit confused as to where he's gone, I heard he was injured but not heard anything official.

Talking of left footers, that Carey from Plymouth would be a good signing.

They were poor in general that day but if they were going to hurt us, it was through him. I've seen him a few times and he is a cracking player.

In defence of Colchester, we played them at a time when they went on an unbeaten run to take them towards the playoff places. What happened after that good run is ridiculous because they looked excellent that night!

I like Carey too. I've suggested Nelson from Plymouth and I'd be happy if we brought both of them in.
 
Henry will go to a club in the PL or in the Championship.

Sawyers and Bradshaw should be targets for us but I doubt they actually are.

Rico is a far higher profile prospect than the ones we signed. Flo didn't come from Walsall, but Stoke. Rico is only 18 and has already had a full season under his belt and he plays for England under 19's. Rico is also under contract whereas Brandy rejected their contract offer and at the age of 24, we were able to sign him on a free. Westlake cost peanuts under a tribunal and look where both Westlake and Brandy are now. Butler rejected their contract offer and signed for us on a free as he was also older than 23. There is no way we'll get Rico lads. They talk of him as a future England player. Probably Flo is the best player we've signed with Walsall connections but as I said he wasn't from Walsall, he was unwanted at Stoke.
 
I believe the gentleman is intimating that we have successfully hijacked the transfer of said left back from Walsall to Brentford, hinting, if somewhat cryptically, that he may soon take the place of a certain Mr Hussey on the sinister side of our defensive unit. However, it's probably a load of bollocks.
