The Marvin Williams thread

From Western Daily Press

"Yeovil Town are to sell winger Marvin Williams to League Two side Brentford.

"The Londoner is returning to the capital after a year with the Glovers that was heavily hit by injury.

"Williams joined Yeovil on a free transfer from Millwall last July and, after a bright start, suffered an ankle problem which needed surgery. He returned in January, but never established a starting role.

"His departure, for a small fee, opens the way for manager Russell Slade to revamp his midfield."

This one is a strange one to me. Which side of the park does he play on? Looking at previous reports on the man he has been recalled or played to replace fire power upfront when a main striker in injured. I hope this is a Glen Poole challenger. If so Glen will have to step up his work rate even more so it could work out well. Need a CB though. 2 players for each position is a luxury but sorts out the lazy bunch!

I think this is potentially a more exciting signing than Kevin Betsy.

Marvin Williams is a young (20 year-old) right winger with, by all acounts, electrifying pace and an ability to score goals. He scored five times in his first ten starts for Millwall.

I would be happier to see a wide man who can score goals too, rather than soone who notches the odd 2/3 goals a season.

Betsy has been there and never done it whereas I always feel hope with players that I don't know anything about.
 

The Marvin Williams thread

Can't recall seeing him, but a young RW with a bit of experience seems a useful addition to the squad: perhaps suggests Newton is being seen as a RB.
 

The Marvin Williams thread

Could be potentially a great signing. Hailed as a superstar for Millwall as a kid and imho a real coup in the offing. Hope I am proved right. :sorted:
 

The Marvin Williams thread

Still only young as well. Is he right or left sided?
 

The Marvin Williams thread

blimey all these signings things are looking up
 

The Marvin Williams thread

First time round, I missed the word "sell" in the report. May only be a small fee involved, but we seem ready to make some investments in the squad: if so, it has to be in young players who may improve and earn us a fee later

Marvin Williams poised to sign ?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

following on from the latest news...........

Marvin Williams is 5 foot 11 inches
He weighs around 11 stone

Birthday 12th August 1987

picked up 7 yellows last season, despite only 8 starts on loan at Yeovil

31 starts at Millwall saw him score 7 goals

He played against us twice in the 2006/7 record breaking season

Favourite Cheese - Limburger

I think he has a decent left foot despite being a right winger



anyone know anything else ?

:scratch: He's a right winger, we've got 3 who can play on the left already.

Good signing this imho. if he shows his Millwall form we have a good player there. Well done Bees.

I think AS may see Marvellous as a CF option.

:yes:

Although I didn't read the word standard in the Chron, just a right winger from L1
 

The Marvin Williams thread

Have couple of Millwall fans and when he went to Yeovil they were gutted!
They really rated Williams, said he was the only spark in there whole season and gave good reports on him, from what i have heard from my friends he plays as a right winger, but can play up front.
Personally think this would be a great signing!
young lots of potential would much prefer this than Besty.
AS get him in!
 

The Marvin Williams thread

Really excited about this possible signing, and feeling really excited about the comming season.
 

The Marvin Williams thread

Things are really looking up at the moment quite a few exciting signings already and this one sounds really exciting, I'm just gutted that I will be abroad for the first couple of weeks of the season!
 

The Marvin Williams thread

Sounds promising, it's looking like it might be a decent season.

It's nice to be spending small transfer fees on players all of a sudden :)
 

The Marvin Williams thread

i have seen them play, well newton and williams anyway;)

Keep taking the misery pills. :wave:
 

The Marvin Williams thread

realistic pills! everyone got excited about shipperley, macammon constantine to name a few and they done sod all for us!!! AS is doing well getting these players in but i would not get excited about it until we see what they can do.
 

The Marvin Williams thread

I think that Marvin will be fantastic aquisition for Brentford, and that in the future, he may definitely have saleability for a large transfer sum if he fulfills his potential. IMO I think this may be the most exciting purchase of them all so far, presuming it goes through :)
 

The Marvin Williams thread

well said adrian, wayfarer, beehive and others ----- as is doing all he can and so far so good! and the board are backing him too.
 

The Marvin Williams thread

I would be extremely shocked if this happens. Happily shocked.
 

The Marvin Williams thread

it's looking good, that the Bees will have a settled squad before a friendly starts ! makes a change from the last 2 years, great to see/hear!

shipperley maybe, but the other 2 :confused: i don't think so!

the squad is coming together with, hopefully!, these 2 new signings, it looks like the best squad we've had for 2 years if we can get in a good CB. let some of us get excited...... PLEASE !, because we've had no excitement for 2 years now. :(
 

The Marvin Williams thread

Sounds like he's from Reservoir Dogs :cool: :dog: :afro:
 

The Marvin Williams thread

Did his dodgy ankle injury slow him down after returning from injury? He didn't get back into the Yeovil team after, and they've let him go for a small fee. Do they know more than we do? Let's hope a good pre-season sorts him out.
