Go get him Mehmet. Build a future.
is he any good?
Is he Greek? Turkish?
Go get him Warncock.
Why? He's exactly the same age as Nyakhuwa and Matondo but not as good.
Welsh apparentlyQuote:

Seriously, he sounds like the sort of player we should be interested in if we're looking for Premier League cast offs to play for the under 21s and we definitely need a striker at that level.

Purse did say they were actively looking at players around this age group to join the U21's. As a number of U21's have now advanced to the first team squad and some being released, the U21's has been left decimated somewhat. Some of the U18s are stepping up, but not quite enough of them. So signing players like Omari is a no-brainer.Quote:

Other than Colwill it wouldn’t surprise me to see most of those players back in the U21s if Bulut stays.Quote:

By the way I started the thread as irony, as he’ll almost certainly go to a club higher placed than City.
Can't be any worse than Etete?!
That is a real concernQuote:

Etete can be a better player in my opinion as all the things he’s lacking can be coached. Doesn’t mean he will but let’s not write him off yet.

You suggested that Etete was fully developed but Colwill not, despite both being the same age.Quote:

He's bloody quick and you can't teach 6'6
No, I said “Shirley he should be developed”, thus insinuating he is developedQuote:

Davies isn’t going to get a look in upfront if Bulut stays.Quote:

Have you seen any of these players play?They have been in the same U19 squads for the last 2 years and the U17 squad before that. There is plenty of footage to watch if you want to check it out. Or maybe you went to some if these matches on which to base your opinion?Quote:

He is a player who could have done with staying at one club, maybe in the championship/league 1, when we was younger. The big move and subsequent loans and moves haven't done his career any favours.
Depends in what respect. I imagine hes made a lot of money on the back of that initial big move and subsequent moves and contracts.Quote:
