I think i counted 18 outfield players out there today
Watched him at Hereford a few times last season, good player but not Premiership, i think Villa will let him go back out on loan
Heard Makuna was there i hope we arent signing him utter dogshite
Canāt believe the amount of negativity, bordering on abuse that Jonas Mukuna is getting. Heās only played in pre-season friendlies and heās about 18 years old. Maybe he isnāt good enough and maybe he wonāt make the grade but give the kid a chance. If we do sign him heāll be on peanuts anyway. Letās not completely destroy his confidence and ruin his career before it has even started. Thereās a section of fans at Walsall that always slay young kids and wonāt give them a chance.
My mate who went told me he was there.
Also said that Wilkinson will be back in full training in a few weeks
Makuna is 17.
I went to the Walsall game vs rushall and all our youth players played awful against a team of adults including shaw sawyers and willock.
17 is more about potential, if his a bit rubbish now but good against his own age group and can grow as a player to be ready as backup by 19 Iām happy with that
And for 17 Iāve seen worse
I agree youāve got to compare him to fringe players in the academy rather than the first team if hes better then might be worth a punt. Sure hes only 17.
Bang on . Although he didnāt make much of an impression in the friendlies. he must have potential otherwise he would have been released with the others. I couldnāt believe he was only 17. Heās built like a brick shithouse.
Flynn obviously sees something in him which we havenāt had chance to yet, and as you say, he will be cheap.
Source ? You on twiiter under the name of Walsall Report?
No, not me. The source was my ears!!!
Not sure how you can get over a torn ACL in less than 5 months!
Lets see how reliable your ears are.
For the development squad yes no issue there first team squad he has shown nothing to suggest he is ready for that.
A mate whoās a Villa fan said we turned down the chance to take him on loan a couple of weeks ago.
Strange to say this as a Walsall fan, but not sure we need another striker with Williams and Johnson as first choice with Abraham and Taylor as back-up.
Caleb Chukwuemeka maybe?
Is he the bloke who if he gets knocked down gets up again?
Doesnāt look like we are signing anyone todayā¦ also you think if we were going to sign someone it would be a lwb
it would be a lwb
Thatāll be a very poor dyslexic cricketer then.
Chris Hussey may be allowed to leave Vale on loan according to some of there fans we need a left back?
What - theyāre keeping Mal Benning as their first choice instead?
yes and they have signed another left back lol
