Suspect FGR weren’t watching on tv !
Suspect the captaincy was because all his teammates were all 2 or 3 years younger than him.

I suspect they were but were probably not looking for the same things as you were

I suspect they were but were probably not looking for the same things as you were

eg a willingness to head the ball.

 

[OllieSteph44]

Possibly mate. I wasn’t appraising him I was just suggesting they may not be looking for the same thing in a player as a supporter of another club

All I would say is from the info I have he ran the furthest, he ran the furthest at high speed, performed the 2nd most sprints, made the most complete passes, prevented a certain goal by his positioning and created the only clear cut chance in the game.

Maybe they liked those bits.

It was a horrendous game of football with little of no football played and Chorley were bigger better and stronger than Derby overall so fair play to them. By you’ve seen how hard it is for kids to compete with grown men so I’m not sure it was a surprise.

Anyway this is the wrong thread...and WHY do Southend fans wanna talk about him at all let alone negatively.....he’s moved on and Southend are probably as good a side now as they have had in 3 seasons!! Enjoy it!! I do! I still pay my £10 most weeks

For a central midfielder?

Its a good idea to give it a bash when you're defending.

In all fairness, he's a recent departure and a bit of an enigma for most Southend fans so he's still a player of interest - someone who didn't really excel in his time here but who still departed (rightly imho) to a bigger team in a higher division who, as you said above, saw things in him that others weren't looking at. For me, those things will be more obvious as attributes in the future as he develops further, but it will certainly be interesting to see:

1) how he progresses long term
2) what he can bring right now to a team at this level

I think there was enough, even in the game at the weekend, to show he's not even close YET to the player he's going to be, but there was still something...

Remember, those who can't or don't want to see what experienced scouts at a big club like Derby can see are fully entitled to express their opinions. They're just not really worth getting into overly strenuous debates with.

Hopefully get some game time and maybe show some ability soon.

He surely won't be going straight in as a direct replacement for Winchester there? Hutch does have positive qualities but I don't think even his most ardent fans would say that he's close to the same level yet.

 

[Mad Cyril]

Forest Green Rovers is a bad move in my opinion.

It really wouldn't surprise me if he is 'liberating' mink farms, throwing red paint around in McDonald's and preaching holier than vegan militancy whilst wearing baggy hemp clothing by the end of the season.

He’s been given the 7 shirt which was Winchesters

We have to accept that FGR play a very different type of football to what we were playing for the majority of his time here. And although it cost us results by playing out from the back the times we tried it they were in fact some of the times isaac looked a good player and FG are clearly having a little more success doing it. It may be a good fit.

We have to also remember he’s only 20 and even those that don’t rate him would have to accept he should be improving all the time and the last three or four months will have helped that for sure

Yes, I like the way FGR play a lot, and Cadden is a fantastic player to watch down the left. Winchester though has been really good this season and they are big shoes to fill. I'm not saying Hutch won't do well there eventually but IMO there are areas of his game that he will definitely need to have improved on a lot to have an immediate impact.

 

[OllieSteph44]

Yeah I’d agree with that. Good post ?

He is only there til May and then has another year on his Derby contract.

FGR wanted an option to buy clause in the loan arrangement but Derby refused. The indications are they plan on having him back!

Enjoyed watching the highlights ...

IH killer pass opening them up and then ducking his head out of the way of the cross.

Did we get a fee for him ??
