Ethan Williams

Post by moonwalk19 »

Orient and Stockport are 2 clubs chasing Man Utd winger Ethan Williams on loan. Man Utd want him to gain experience. Highly regarded 19 year old has tremendous pace and is ideal recruit under RW. Scored 17 goals last season for U 18 .

Was going to start a separate thread, but thought better of it by putting it in the transfer thread.

8 loans are allowed at clubs, only 5 allowed matchday squads.

But as we’re signing one of the loans on a permanent, according to Nigel/RW, then one more loan will take us back to 5.

Interesting, assume it's Keeley, as can't imagine the rest are available for transfer.

Trouble is, if he takes as long as Donley and Perkins to get used to men’s football we won’t see any benefit until end of season.

Probably. But they could be impressed by how Galbraith has kicked on with us (obviously not their player so not like they'll be keeping huge tabs on him but you never know).

We need players who can slot in straight away, not first time loans who will take months to develop.

Why is Stockport more likely? Geography? Sending the kid away from home is part of the growing up process.

I know nothing of Stockport but Premier League and Chanpionship clubs must be queueing up to send their young talent our way given Richie’s track record of developing them.

Doey ✅
Keeley ✅
El Mizouni ✅
Brynn ✅
Currie ✅
Perkins - jury's out
Edwards ✖️
Adu-Adjei ✖️
Hemming ✖️

More hits than misses so far but not sure Arsenal will rush to lend us their next u21 no-hoper.

I'd say Cooper and Forde were ticks. Duke-McKenna looked good until his injury.
Turns was definitely a good one.

Galbraith
Brown
Currie
ONeill

The list of youngsters coming in here and being progressed is ridiculous. Clubs will be aware.

We’ve already done as much as we can on that front, although I doubt if Ebbsfleet are covering more than a fraction of Moncurs wages
