[Winston Biscuit]

The future of this club makes his first start tonight.

Feel free to use this thread to follow his progress in detail, discuss his potential, or just post your favourite pictures of him.

The future of RFC arrives down here on planet earth tonight. Strap yourselves in, its going to be quite the journey.

Here
We
Go!

[Mid Sussex Royal]

Anyone know what sort of contract he's on?

[Crowbar6753]

A bit early to pin him as the future of the club. Certainly don't want to be over hyping the young lad and placing any extra weight on his shoulders.
Saying that, tonight we have a chance to watching him hopefully for 90mins against a decent Millwall team. I hope he has a good game and one day goes on to be a good player for the club.

First assist tonight then

An assist 1 minute into his first start

[Pepe the Horseman]

What have I missed? Has he been doing well for the U23s? Or had a really good pre-season? What position does he play?

Came on for Azeez on 78 minutes at the weekend. Played as an attacker out on the right. Looked very lively, did a nice trick to get past someone, almost set up an equaliser.

Anyone know what sort of contract he's on?

Only signed his first profession deal in June, so no idea, as we don't tend to mention the length of them.

Anyone know what sort of contract he's on?

Whatever it is it isn't long enough.

5 year deal, £50m release clause. Get it done

[Winston Biscuit]

64 minutes, evenings work is done and is taken off (I assume to protect him for the next league match)

A very solid evenings work for the young man.

I said it on Saturday, this lad is oxf*rd special. The best prospect I have seen in years. We really need to get him on a long term contract as Chelsea and City will be sniffing around soon.

Also, our youngsters can play football and dropping down to League One will help their development massively. I am sick to death of paying top dollar for utter garbage who spend much of the time being injured.

[Royal_jimmy]

He was very very good tonight.

Definitely need to get him tied down as he'll get some game time for us..Need to manage him carefully of course. Maybe put him on the bench Saturday.

We certainly do. Can't lose another promising youngster for nothing or very little. If he has a good season unfortunately we'll see premier league and top championship teams sniffing around.

GOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAL!!!!

[Snowflake Royal]

GOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAL!!!!

To be honest, some of his shielding of the ball and turns along the line, plus stealing infront to take the ball were even sexier than the goal.

He's a delight.

Vickers, Ehibhatiomhan, Elliott and Ballard are all technically brilliant for this level. A bit of experience to go with maturing physically and they can go a long way.

And there's others not far behind them in that regard.

[Hound]

He was great today. Along with Eliot turned the game

I like Elliot. Azeez too played well, credit where credits due.

[Mid Sussex Royal]

Very nice finish and movement, reminded me of Gary Lineker.

GOOOOAAAAAAAAL!!!!
