A good player on his day but doesn't seem willing to work for it 22 hours ago, thruthenight said: Kabia showed a ton of potential 3 years ago, but has done absolutely nothing with it and is now struggling for game time in League 1. Sounds like an attitude problem, get rid, next. Jaze Kabia pulled his hamstring in his 4th game for us and never played for us again. He was just about fit again with about 4 games left but then aggravated it in training and that was his season done. He did very well off the bench in his first couple of games then started the next two, getting injured about 10 mins into the 2nd of those. He barely featured in his loan spell but it was due to injury, not attitude or ability. He had looked very useful and scored the winner as a sub on his debut. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He seemed very injury prone for us; his game against Celtic was impressive and I had high hopes but barely saw him again and those times that he did appear from the bench were instantly forgettable. I believe he never endeared himself to the Morton supporters on his loan with them although 4 goals in 18 appearances, many off the bench, isn't a total disgrace for an attacking midfielder these days.

Durnford Posted May 30 Share Posted May 30 I see all the players that have definitely left have been removed from the official site squad page. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cptn Hooch Posted May 30 Share Posted May 30 (edited) Michael Devlin from Hibs. Certainly looks like we're going to be moving to a back 3 with all these centre backs Edited May 30 by Cptn Hooch 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LiviLion Posted May 30 Share Posted May 30 Good signing if he can stay fit, doesn't scream "shoestring budget" though. Unless of course he jumped at the chance to sign thinking he wouldn't get anything better with his lack of playing. George de Lucas - Devlin - Boyes Brandon - Holt - Kelly - Montano Bradley - Kelly Anderson 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However there is a 0.1% chance of that happening. Still a chance though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Wrong Car Posted May 30 Share Posted May 30 Given the way it’s structure (3 years worth of one year deals) I’d bet he’s on less than Nicky Devlin and Fitzwater, both of whom likely had wage increases over their time here Interesting to see how this works - suggest 352 or 343 is the formation next season 343 at home, with Bradley and Kelly/Bahamboula alongside Anderson seems very similar to the 433 this season 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George de Lucas - Devlin - Boyes Brandon - Holt - Kelly - Montano Bradley - Kelly Anderson Yeah think it shows we have to take some risk signings to get a decent quality player for what we're paying. Hopefully pays off and he stays fit. Funnily enough he'd be the type of opposition player that wouldn't be allowed to play against us at home on our plastic pitch, with the old not wanting to risk someone that's had injuries playing on plastic excuse.

mozam76 Posted May 30 Share Posted May 30 Very good player, but his injury record is eye watering. Hopefully (for his sake) his fitness improves, because we’d then end up with a top class centre half. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdinburghLivi Posted May 30 Share Posted May 30 Maybe Obileye will play further forward next year? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreedomFarter Posted May 30 Share Posted May 30 34 minutes ago, EdinburghLivi said: Maybe Obileye will play further forward next year? I know he played there for QoS but defensive lines are much lower in the Championship and strikers stay high, which stretches the game out, giving more space in centre mid and therefore more time on the ball in that area. In the Prem, teams defend far more compactly. Defensive lines are higher and strikers retreat back when they lose the ball. This really squeezes the space in centre mid and I don't think Obileye has the skills needed to cope with that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIVIFOREVER Posted May 30 Share Posted May 30 (edited) Aye i read he was decent as a defensive midfielder, but from what i've seen, that's when he gets himself in trouble, getting caught on the ball, bringing it out of defence. He's much better keeping it simple and just clearing it, or passing it to the likes of Fitzwater to bring it out. Wouldn't like to see him as a DM, gives me a shudder thinking about it.

ATLIS Posted May 30 Share Posted May 30 My issue with Obileye is that he doesn't have a left foot. If anyone presses him in midfield they know where he's going, always onto his right. I wouldn't have him near the first team as I don't rate him, but he's at least decent in the air. On the right side of a back 3, keeping it simple he may be passable. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATLIS Posted May 30 Share Posted May 30 Apart from that, Devlin out, Devlin in. Seems like it'll be a decent signing, Martindale seems confident they can get to keeping him fit at least. International and European experience in a defender is nothing to shy away from, I imagine he'll have a big impact in training and the dressing room too 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
