feck me if i see the similarities.....one is headless chicken while the others biggest attribute is his football brain.
If that's actually how you see Weir, there's no point even arguing.
pretty much, i think he is a decent reserves player and will probably make it in lower clubs of championship. Solid movement, good engine, chips in with the goals and works hard......the only similarity i can see between the two is the fact that they are both offensive midfielders(AM/wingers) with pretty average dribbling skills although Jesse looks to be improving in that department.
Signed a 4 year deal.
Just, the most excellent news.
Great news.
It's a shame they couldn't afford a table. A club of our standing shouldn't make people sign contracts on the floor.
Anyway, great to see the early stages of the Redcafe Great New Homegrown Hope cycle in action.
Just, the most excellent news.
I approve of this post.
Fantastic news
It's a thing of beauty isn't it
Indeed.
Sweepstake on the date that he leaves the club to much wailing and nashing of teeth on the caf?
Get in!
I see more potential in this kid than any of the others we've produced.
They need to stop filtering the shit out of pictures on Instagram.
Great news.
Hope to hear good news re Williams and Dearnley next. And some sorting of the Kehinde situation.

According to @jb8521 Williams has signed a contract
Williams and Dearnley have both signed

Is four years a longer deal to give a 16 year old?
Great news this deal.
Some interesting comments on Pereira in this thread too, people only a month or so ago saying he isn't all that.

Nice one, hope he can put the flirting with the scousers behind him.
Most of them dont know shit
I haven't heard the details but I think it's one year scholarship + 3 years pro deal.Didn't know that we're allowed to give more than 2 years for a first pro deal.
You can give any deal you want once someone turns 17...
Is a four year deal to be interpreted as a strong show of faith? Blackett and McNair only got short extensions recently, for example.
Possibly…but also to fend off approaches from other clubs.
Since Gribben is not yet 17, he can't sign a pro deal, so, presumably, the 3 year deal is not legally binding. A good faith arrangement?
Who is this kid and why should I be excited that he's signed for another 4 years? I read Liverpool were interested in him. Judging by their scouting policy we should be selling anyone they're after!
It's a guarantee…1+3 means that he will be offered a 'guaranteed' three year pro deal when he reaches 17.
Anyone seen him play regularly? Is he any good? Is it okay to assume he must be good since Liverpool were interested?
Not the best game from him yesterday but the free kick was class.Also hit the bar.
Didn't he get one directly from a free kick against PSV as well?
Yeah he has scored 4 free kicks in 7 games this season and has hit the post and bar as well
And he's left-footed. van Gaal's dream, surely?
