linwood bud Posted August 11, 2014 Report Share Posted August 11, 2014 According to pete o rourke from sky sports we are close to a deal with Adam, I looked at his wiki page and says he is a 20 year old winger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djchapsticks Posted August 11, 2014 Report Share Posted August 11, 2014 (edited) According to pete o rourke from sky sports we are close to a deal with Adam, I looked at his wiki page and says he is a 20 year old winger More likely to be the 35 year old centre-half, formerly of Norwich and Leeds, no? Edit: He's a Full back, not centre-half, so we can pretty much discard that possibility. Edited August 11, 2014 by djchapsticks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonny Posted August 11, 2014 Report Share Posted August 11, 2014 Glad it isn't the 35 yo left back from Leeds. The younger version (from Man City) is listed as a defender who can also play on the wing. http://www.mcfc.co.uk/elite-development-squad/defenders/adam-drury If he is half as good as Plummer he will be a welcome addition to the squad.

JM1 Posted August 11, 2014 Report Share Posted August 11, 2014 Drury to challenge Naismith for right-back and Naismith to also challenge Cheesy & Plummer at centre half? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TopCat Posted August 11, 2014 Report Share Posted August 11, 2014 (edited) Think this one is instead of Evans. Plug got pulled on that one at last minute at behest of Pellegrini apparently, as he thinks he can make the first team this season. Man City had some friendlies up here during the summer... Dundee, Hearts I think? Maybe another. We couldn't host them obviously cause we were getting work done to the stadium. Anyway, point is it shows you how good a name we've got down there. Man City would still rather send their youngsters to us over the teams they played and no doubt got heavily lobbied by for loanees in the friendlies.

JJ McG Posted August 11, 2014 Report Share Posted August 11, 2014 We needed a right sided midfielder so this is a good signing + he can cover full back as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil McCracken Posted August 11, 2014 Report Share Posted August 11, 2014 We needed a right sided midfielder I'm not sure we do. We had Brown & Teale on the bench on Saturday. You never have enough good players however... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dakota7 Posted August 11, 2014 Report Share Posted August 11, 2014 Another player with pace. TC certainly understands what was missing from the side. I hope he is a success as manager I am liking what he is doing so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuddieinEK Posted August 11, 2014 Report Share Posted August 11, 2014 Another player with pace. TC certainly understands what was missing from the side. I hope he is a success as manager I am liking what he is doing so far. Compared to last years signings it truly is night and day. Impressed with his signings and the movement of the team... as well as the passing into spaces for players to run to rather than always to feet or a lump up the park. Starting to really doubt my doubts! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TsuMirren Posted August 12, 2014 Report Share Posted August 12, 2014 a 'quick' short pass? what would a slow short pass entail? Possibly, but don't quote me on this, the ball traveling more slowly than it would during a quick short pass. There's even potential for less back lift from the passer and less force being used to ensure the slower version of the short pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
div Posted August 12, 2014 Report Share Posted August 12, 2014 Sounds like another promising signing. My only fear about the current transfer strategy is that the team is so young. You'll never win anything with kids Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
