He hasn't played an awful lot at first team level, but he has clearly been highly regarded wherever he's been and 15 goals in 19 for Watford at a decent standard of U23s football is cause for optimism.Well his record doesn't fill me with optimisim but he is still quite young so time to improve
A quick search on Twitter shows he was on trial at Barnet 3 days ago. The same user guessed that Kaziah Sterling was also playing (lol)This ones certainly come out of the blue. Is this the lad PB was speaking about and watched at the weekend perhaps? Either way, he has already had some big moves and some football league experience for someone of his age, could be a very smart bit of business.
40 games and 1 goal isn't the most exciting of records, but he's young and something caught the eye to make Leeds and then Watford sign him. Let's see how he gets on.
Interestingly, shares an agent with Matt Rush.
My thoughts exactly! I think this is potentially a great signing - given his young age, if he's a success we should be able to sell him on for a profit too.Absolutely astonishing but predictable negativity. First people whinge everyones to old, or why don't we sign younger talented players rather than loanees, or why haven't we signed a 6ft plus number 9. Now we sign a 21 year who who is all of these and broke into Orients first team at 16, and was then signed for a fee by both Leeds and Watford and we are instantly unhappy....

I get what you're saying but have people really been that negative?Absolutely astonishing but predictable negativity.

Agree, let's face it, I'm sure Barry Corr didn't have a great scoring record prior to joining us - I could me wrong though!!
