Agreed. Doesn't seem remotely phased, great athleticism and composure, and a pretty decent control and finishing. Great option to have in the squad - for no outlay this window as well.

So... are you saying we should ignore Sidney's potentially hysterical post above? 😄

He can't play target man or left wing with his limited ball control.

Lovely goal for the 2nd one. Larin nod down and a great through ball by azaz! The young lad looks like he's going to have a good future... Reckon we'll be seeing a bit of him off the bench this year. Love that eckert trusts the academy - finally got a manager that brings them through properly.

Deleted - wrong thread!

What?! The actual are you smoking? 😆 From the moment we switched to a back 4, Peretz in goal, and had a target man up front, we averaged enough for 113points over a 46game season... Plus beat the English champions at home in the cup quarter final 😅.

Larin's movement is so good, all the time. It's incessant. Honestly worth watching just him for a few minutes and appreciating it. Superb cross by manning, but larin was watching that all the way.

It will 😌

Colchester are a well coached young side, definitely well organised and able to play to their strengths (which are good for league 2). Saints look poor without an effective CF, reckon we scored 1 or 2 this half with Larin and the balls that have been put in.

Playing 4-2-3-0 at the moment.

BBD trying his hardest to look like a non league football this half.

Yeah, but only on 2 occasions... and it would be un-enforceable regardless as no way to know who was watching. It would make a total mockery of the nonsense EFL rule as well.

As far as i can work out, if a member of the public decides to rock up at Middlesbrough's training ground every week, and live-streams their "restricted" training sessions online for anyone to watch, there is absolutely nothing the league can do about it. Would get their fans absolutely frothing at the mouth as well.

Yes.

That's still way better than the away kit...
