Not sure if he’s been mentioned. Is this guy worth a look. À la Gyokeres. He always looks like he gives teams a hard time.
Defo has the speed and phyisicality for the Prem, not sure about his finishing though. Has the Raw attributes and the coaching staff could probably get a tune out of him

I'm frankly amazed you're bothering to post after your sensational claim that we should be playing Thomas as a striker.
It would help if you were honest for once. When we were down to one fit striker recently I posed the question who would we play up front if Simms got injured. My choice was Thomas as we had extra defenders and he is always up there attacking.

Liar is not the word I normally associate with you. It is intelligent. The reason for this is whoever I compare you to on here you make them look intelligent.

Upon tactical instruction to offer an extra body in attack when we're chasing a goal and looking to overload their back line, as he's very good aerially and poses a physical threat.... he hasn't got a bad shot on him either.

That still doesn't at all make him the right choice in the event all our strikers our out. It was a laughable suggestion.

Was that last line supposed to be some kind of burn?

I’m sceptical of that because his career to date has been v average. Found a niche this season but like Campbell last season at Sheff U… players tend to revert to the statistical norms.

If a player has 2-3 seasons of consistency, I’m a lot more likely to believe the hype.

If we are signing players such a Sinclair Armstrong for the Prem, we needn't bother trying

He was exactly the same when he was at QPR before Bristol City. I saw him play a few times, fast and strong. But that’s it, he hasn’t improved.
Is he fast? There was a diagonal ball that he chased after, the .ball went out of play but Thomas in chasing him was making ground on him and Thomas didn't seem to be running at maximum effort,

He's definitely fast.

Awful technique and has a generally poor understanding of the game and a questionable work rate but he's got pace and power in abundance.

Despite most slating him for pretty much everything else - and rightly so - even QPR and Bristol fans do at least attest to that.

Not sure of how it works with their Italian, partner club links, but Watford have some attacking players with raw talent that look like they will improve. I'd be sniffing around some of them if we were able to attract them.

What do the Kenilworth Wardens fans think? Summer bid going in?

So why wasn't he fast on Saturday when Bobby could catch up him up easily? Was he actually pulling a trailer?

If we signed dross like Sinclair Armstrong in January I’d give my season ticket away!
