Tyler Adams

[wayne189]

Christie and/or Cook will at some point get a knock or suspended. It’s strength in depth we need and if he can play full back it’s a double bonus. He will get games if fit for sure.

And we can start selling those shirts in Wyoming which some on here were stacking the deal up in so triple bonus…

Wyoming population is like 8 people and 2 dogs so not too many shirts to be sold there Neil lol

Does anyone know if Tyler got a run out today in the Development squad game v Colchester United?

I'm assuming he did because the game was pulled from the New Cuthbury Wimborne under a cloak of secrecy and billed as being played behind closed doors but that turned out to be Ringwood Town's ground.

We won 5,-0 but there are no details anywhere of our team who played!

There’s now a short report on COWS confirming that Adams played, which is welcome news. Good result for the team as a whole.

I wonder what those Colchester players thought when they saw a £25m international captain lining up against them.

Probably thought he was cr4p and was only purchased to boost shirt sales in the US.

The line-up is on COWS.

Fantastic news.
COWS shows he didn't play the full 90, but getting minutes under his belt, and (presumably) without injury this time, is the most important thing.
Maybe even see him on the bench v Luton March 13?

 

[BilbaoCherry]

Fantastic news to see him come on today when the match was still to be decided. Must mean he's training well.

Great addition to the squad for the final stretch of the season.

Looked good too

 

[afcbmdl27]

Yeah , completely agree , looked very tidy and composed .. strong competition for places now .. I would think Billing will go in the summer ?? .

[thegazzyb]

I would think Billing will go in the summer ?? .

I think that if we got a reasonable offer for him, it would be ok to let him go and improve our FFP position. But he has a new contract in his pocket and he might be happy to stay here and be a bit part player whilst earning very good money, at least for another season.

My guess is that he won't push for a move but the club might start looking for potentially interested parties in the summer.

Personally I'd be happy for him to stay and come on and cause chaos as a sub from time to time. He certainly offers "something different" when he does come on.

 

[afcbmdl27]

Yeah I have always liked Billing and when he's on his game he is excellent as he has proved .. I just wonder under Andoni if he 'fits' also I do wish he could use his height as more of a asset, as in be a better header of the ball ( albeit he did score with that recently) ..
How worried should we be with regards to FFP?? I for one am getting twitchy as it seems we have spent alot of money but not got much in .. also we have such a small ground etc so the turn over must be little in comparison to even the likes of Palace , Brentford etc .. who's stadiums are not massive .. would be a disaster if we fail here , after the past .. I thought I heard from reporter that we are fine currently.. hope I'm right..

The club will put on their best poker face no doubt, but I would have thought they'll be seriously considering any decent offers in the summer for maybe one of our bigger names.

We have the luxury now to start planning the summer (whilst letting AI and the squad have a good crack at midtable).

Let's hope we are sensible behind the scenes.. Bill is a businessman and should know best surely?!.

Realistically can see Kelly going ( but free ), Solanke ( but to who , maybe Spurs? And how much ?) , Billing but again to who , can't see the Newcastle rumor being true tbh , Zab reminds me of Ake , as good as we are, I feel he's a top 6 player and we should enjoy him whilst we have him , could see him fetching around 40 million, but who else?? Who do you / we think will go this summer??.

 

[OLDSKOOL]

Looked good too

He did didn’t he - played with his head up and looked calm and confident.

 

[billythekid]

Think Andoni Iraola will gradually bring Adams back after his long time out, probably replacing him with Cook some time in the second half.

Our manager will hopefully now be looking towards next season now with our team starting in the Premier League for the seventh time, with a two season gap in between and having the US captain fit and raring to go.

That's a very good point.
Having more or less secured another PL season so early, will have a positive impact on our recruitment strategy for the summer. We now have a bit more time to put some feelers out and can already more or less be certain that we are offering PL football to anyone who might be interested in coming.
Quite a luxury to have for a club like AFCB !

Can't see Cook being drooped. Was one of our best players last night again. 2nd goal was Smith's fault for chasing the ball. And 1st goal he may have lost chong but if Scott does his job and goes with their player the cross doesn't come in. Did play Barkley on for 3rd though.
Maybe Adams for Christie though?

Or in fact it will be the 8th season in the PL - in ten years

Christie’s level has dropped of late.

I also think that Cook is difficult to replace.

Cook-Adams is a solid center midfield.
