Sounds like an American footballer although his surname would be Devontae!!
I meant Christian name.Quote:

It wouldn't be a new Cardiff City signing though, if there wasn't a long line of people waiting to write him off before he had kicked a ball for us, would it ?Quote:

Is it permissible to say that this signing, like two or three of the others, has a “squad member” look to it rather than someone who is going to, say, be the replacement for Drameh?Quote:

Reading about him on a Dundee FC forum, he can pass the ball well, he's quick and can get past a player with pace, not easily shrugged off the ball, is good in an attacking sense but not great defensively. Here's a selection of comments about him as a defender:
"rash and unpredictable defending"
"the boy sure likes to jump into boys at some force"
"erratic"
"prone to errors"
Anybody worked out his scrabble score?
Seems more of a wingback than a fullback. Be interesting, Morisons seems to like a wingback who can carry the ball and get forward which he does. I did wonder if we were moving away from wingbacks but maybe Morison will be mixing it up.Quote:

What about the shortest?
Perry Ng and Tom Sang in a 7s. Joe Day is a sad loss, apart from on a football field.
To be fair you'd expect most of those things from a young full back. Hopefully they can be ironed out with game time and good coaching.Quote:

Best tie his laces together and play him up front where he can do least damage by the sound of it. Looks like the sort who would knock himself out doing the Ayatollah!Quote:

I seem to remember Bamba being erratic, and he was definitely unpredictable, usually making last minute full stretch leg out tackles and blocks.
I know you seem to have this thing going with Underhill, but I could see what he was getting at.
Could be a good signing, Leicester do have a recent pedigree of developing right backs like Luke Thomas and James Justin. Not to mention being able to learn from experienced and establish wingbacks like pereira and castagne.
On a free it’s feels like a solid punt
Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink must be up there for one of the longest names.
I have no idea. I was hoping we might have had a miles or furlong who had played for us but I can't recall any players having a unit of length as their name.Quote:
