Impressed with the GK Lawrence Vigouroux. Would obviously be difficult to take the lad Vigouroux with Orient in the position they are in, but what a good keeper. Excellent distribution and with ball at feet, agile, good reflexes and good shot stopper. Capped by Chile at international level. |

The 6ft 5in 21-year-old Fulham GK George Wickens has had a good 18 months or so and looks a very good prospect. On loan with Wealdstone he was named the Players' Player of the Season and the Junior Stones Player of the Season for 21/22. Capped by England at u16 and u18 level. www.instagram.com/tv/CeENuTluFRS/ |

Probably unrealistic and would certainly break our transfer record, but if there was one player from League Two I'd love us to sign it would be Wimbledon's Ayoub Assal. What a talent.

I havent seen much of this lad but keep hearing people raving about him. Sounds like the sort of player Peterborough pick up, confident that they will sell on for a profit. Think we are much more reserved though |

At the age of 21 I could see Manchester United being inclined to sell Ethan Galbraith for a fee during this window if they have a recall clause in his Salford loan deal or release him at the end of the season when his contract expires. With his potential I think he would be a smart pick-up for a club at our level.

He looks very raw, but will be worth monitoring the progress of Laken Torres at Chesterfield. Had a prolific 21/22 season with the club's U18’s and U21’s that saw him score 51 goals and named Youth Team Player of the Year. Has recently been in or around first team setup and worth keeping an eye on.

Promising youngster Sol Baugh at Sevenoaks Town worth scouting or even a trial. Part of the famed Kinetic Academy, the 19-year-old can play as a winger or attacking midfielder and looks to have something about him.  |

The 21-year-old winger Charlie Reilly at Albion Rovers in Scotland worth scouting or a trial if possible. Looks a good prospect.  |

Chatting with a guy who claims to coach LFC youth players and he says we should try for Ben Doak, says he would provide a lot of chances. I have no idea if he is being truthful bit the player does look like the kind we could do with

Chatting with a guy who claims to coach LFC youth players and he says we should try for Ben Dock, says he would provide a lot of chances. I have no idea if he is being truthful bit the player does look like the kind we could do with Ben Doak is a special talent and is going to be an excellent player, but my worry is that at 17-year-old does he have the physical attributes required to let the talent shine through at League One level? I'm not convinced. |

I'm not convinced. I have no idea my friend but just passing on what the guy said, unlike you I do not know anything of other clubs players. I do find it interesting though as he was asking about quansha ( sp) and was really happy on what i said and comments on the forum which i led him to. He really rates Doak, i don’t even know if he would be available ? |

Sometimes you are left scratching your head as to why a player is playing at such a low level and the case of Giorgio Rasulo is one of those. It wasn't until Sam Finley was 25 that he joined a club at League One level and it wouldn’t surprise me if Rasulo did something similar. Not afraid to put his foot in, he can pick a pass, go past his marker and score/create a goal from open play or from a free kick. He's got enough ability to be playing in EFL. A midfielder who made first team debut for MK Dons at the age of just 15 in an FA Cup tie against Cambridge City. He would go on to make his Football League debut, aged just 16, in the final game of the 2012/13 season. He previously represented England at U16 and U17 levels too and was highly-rated as a youngster. The Banbury United captain should be playing at a higher level and one day I hope he is again given the opportunity to play at a level befitting his ability.  Assist  I know of quite a few very talented lads who could of easily played in the Football League. The reason most of them didn't was that they were in profession's like Banking, Stockbroking, Chartered Surveyors to name a few and with their salary and part time Football wages they were earning twice as much as they would get by signing for most League 1 and 2 clubs. Unless it was a top end League 1 club say like a Sheffield Wednesday or Ipswich, or a Championship club offering them more than their employers, it's not financially worth their while. So they're better off playing Non We had a few in Kingswood, Sean Pinker was, by far, the best. On Arsenals book but got caught smoking something and the sauce, then Forest but same. Best left peg i have ever seen, Penrice, Holloway, Kite and Gary Smart all played. We used to get a gem back then |

His Dad Les was a nice chap as well - Good builder and mates with my Dad. |

Lovely family, was heartbroken when Nobby died..potterswood was their team, Sean really was so gifted, such a waste. Nice guy too just made some poor decisions. Used to love watching them all, when they were on the up. Penny was subject to my neighbour, Ralph Miller, getting so angry with Rovers. He said we robbed Mangos |
