Loan Signing: Jonathan Tomkinson

Can he play centre forward?

 

We have been waiting for international clearance.

 

Don’t start! Or you will give ideas to MH

 

Much needed in an area of the pitch we are light.

 

Does that now make an active 1st team squad of 30? Is it quantity over quality?​

 

He's out of contract next summer so if he does well maybe he will sign for us.

 

Great, now we can field a full five a side team of centre halves.

 

Apparently is a quick ball playing defender who has impressed in the Norwich youth. Sounds like he was impressive at Stevenage but once Evans had his favoured CBs back he was just on the bench for the rest of his loan. Get a feeling that if this lad is a quick ball player, Kelly is dropping back out this team.

 

Welcome to the club. In the current back 3, who does he replace or has he come as back up? Apparently he is a ball playing CB which we are desperate for, so good indications there.

also this article from a month ago said he was out for 10-12 weeks. No reference of that in any articles but perhaps similar to Wilson, will it be some weeks before he is fit to play?

More importantly, it hopefully pushes Taylor further down the pecking order.

 

Does this mean that Hughes realises he has dropped a ball coc with Taylor ?

 

Is he left-footed? Could Platt be under threat if not?

 

Four substitutions for each team when training.

 

Yet another centre back. Yippee

 

Right footed apparently. No idea which side he prefers though.

 

Doesn't say in the articles, cant find it either other than Transfermarkt but it's more than likely a guess with young lads. Looking at Norwich match reports, he did play as a LCB in two of his 3 starts for Norwich, he was RCB in the other, all 3 games as part of a back 4. From reading a little on him, seems like a ball playing defender with a bit of pace (Critchlow replacement).

 

Platt to be dropped. Kelly was best of the three on Saturday.

 

Timi put on loan to a national league club until Jan?
