Bit of a Trevor Senior ?Very much like an old school striker that would play as part of a two up front. Doesn't contribute much outside of the box. Good finisher though

From what I know, he is very pacey, works the full back line, will selflessly run the channels and 90% of his goals are long rangers from outside of the area.
That's the conundrum.He knows where the net is, that's for sure. He'd be up against far better defenders than he's faced but worth a gamble?
Not a million miles off, but I'd say the people who are saying he has pace, are basing that off seeing him play against national league and league two defenders. Nowhere near as pacey as Archer.Is he similar to Cameron Archer then?
Poacher / finisher with pace to run the channels etc?
If so, surely he could fit into Carricks style, certainly as an option?

And tactically he doesn't do an awful lot of work in the channels for Notts.
Jordan Rhodes mk2. Not sure we create enough chances for him.
Would we still create as many of those chances though if the striker wasn't participating as much in the build up play?I'm not sure that's our problem. Our XG is higher than anyone in the championship outside the top 4, if we'd put away as many of our chances as the teams around us we'd be 5th potentially.
Maybe we do need a "fox in the box". Also I do love a footballing cliche.
No.Langstaff = Hugill
I watched him play Saturday: he's much better than either Hoppe, Nkrumah, or Gilbert. His advantage is that he has experience, but I wouldn't take a punt on him - its a bit Roy of the Rovers stuff.Do you put him above Daniel Nkrumah or Matthew Hoppe? Because our recruitment haven't.. who have we bought.. who have we loaned. It's not been that.. I love the dream.. but I don't think we will go for it tbh.
I defo would.. everyone want to see it.. everyone wants to support the club that takes the punt.I watched him play Saturday: he's much better than either Hoppe, Nkrumah, or Gilbert. His advantage is that he has experience, but I wouldn't take a punt on him - its a bit Roy of the Rovers stuff.
I'll bet you all the “Shoot” annuals in the box in the attic, it would be a silly punt.I defo would.. everyone want to see it.. everyone wants to support the club that takes the punt.
‘When Saturday Comes’ - great book & film
