No good players ever play well for England. Only average ones, who don't play particularly well at club level.

Anyway, love Alex Iwobi.

Is he for sale? Though January might be too late for us.
Definitely not but the word is that we are now in skint street so we'd probably have to consider serious offers, especially if we aren't looking like mounting a promotion challenge come Jan.

That league is so tight though so only needs a run of 2 or 3 wins and you're right in the thick of it?

Mellon done the dough has he?
Been stop start, but I think he can turn it around. People are citing similarities with his later time with you - but we've got our best player returning from injury and he's been backed to get a few players in, after we missed out in the summer thanks to one thing or another. We'll see mate.

Pretty much. Win Wednesday and Sat and we'd be touching the play-offs I reckon. Normally a start like ours would wipe a team out of the conference title race but IF we can get going then I'd say it's still early enough to salvage, given the lack of a runaway team.

I don't care if he hates his mother. We're in deep trouble.
Good player, 100%er, lacks self-belief though. Not saying grecian is wrong, he likes to play the Jack the lad but he has major doubts in his own ability and misses 1 on 1s when he has time to think about them.

League 1 would probably be a punt for him at this stage but I do think he has it in him.

We have taken a few from non league in the summer and are top of League 1 and Norwood has a better pedigree than the ones we signed to be fair.

Norwood doesn't even start for Tranmere does he? Not sure what is pedigree is, he's never scored a League goal. Think there are better non-League players around.

Yet hey, Hope Argyle spend big on him.

There isn’t a footballer in the top 5 Divisions that wouldn’t improve our team.

Yeah he does. I think he was on the bench the other week when we were on TV but he was out of favour after an early season red then Mangan scoring after coming off the bench. He’s been first choice striker under both of the managers we’ve had down here, scored about a goal every other game as well as countless assists and what not.

I’m biased as hell, but with Ricky Miller gone you aren’t going to find me anyone that I’d definitely say ‘I’d swap him for Norwood’ at this level. The standard this season is worse than the last two for mine, who are the better non league players? I’m not saying there aren’t any but in terms of forwards and all round game?

If he could score one on ones I’d never have heard of him because he’d already be two leagues higher.

EDIT - 39 goals in 80 starts + 12 sub appearances. Can play lone striker, number ten, inside forward, winger.

I don’t know about the higher divisions but I doubt any club at this level would turn him down.

Ozil to United on a free next summer is doing the rounds. Had been thinking how much sense that would make.
