Thought he was being talked about in terms of others were looking at him, and we would be very lucky if he picked us?!! Maybe first team football is all he is interested in?

We offered him a development squad contract. Maybe he thought he was better than that, a bit like Christ Bush did!!

No wonder he had such a high opinion of himself.

Haha, did I really type that!! He was a good defender, terrible on cross though!!

I kind of don't get it... wasnt he loaned to us to play in our development squad? Surely that means Arsenal thought thaty highly of him he couldnt even make their youth squad?

Or am I missing something?

Does not really matter what Arsenal or anybody else thinks of him, we obviously were not that impressed, either with his football or attitude, or both, end of. Maybe he was not impressed with us but it does not seem to me that we bust a gut trying to get him. Plenty more fish in the sea.

Could come down to money too? First team wage vs academy wage ?

I think we were impressed enough to offer him a contract ? I think some one needs to explain to him what life at BFC is all about and how the Dev Squad works in improving players .

I imagine that contract offer is still on the table

Might sadly be easier to do in time when (hopefully) we have a rich seem of players making the transition from academy squad to first team.
