    Good hold up play in setting up goal, who was that?

    Big chance for him now..

    Highly rated and he's our second choice now..

    Can maybe feel like he should've been in and around the first team already. Seen some of his goals and link up play for the reserves and he has all the attributes to step up. Night strong boy for his age and can finish..

    Would start him tomorrow night..

    Edit: Only just back from injury..

    Decent opportunity, you'd think he'd at least make the bench tomorrow now.

    That was what I was thinking. Maybe he makes the bench tomorrow and maybe can come on in the second half at some point.

    He’s just back from injury today, won’t be in the squad

    Think it’s time we got a look at him in the first team. Big physical presence and an actual striker.

    Surely has to be a better option than Morgan.

    Agree. He’s 20 next month as well so you’d imagine he’s at the age where he needs to make a first team break through to kickstart a proper career.

    Would've had him as backup to Eddy for the last month or so personally..

    If we sign 2 strikers then he has to go on loan..

    Championship is fine with me or even a sheep or something..

    We’re reluctant? He wasn’t getting a sniff when Morgan was starting up top.

    Get him loaned out.

    Bizarre that he wasnt given a chance earlier in the season.

    Would like to see more of Okoflex too.

    Aye he has the physique already and youth pedigree to shine in our side..

    He did get injured for a bit but for someone who Lenny rates highly by all accounts....you'd think we'd of seem something of him from the bench at least..

    He's in a bunch with Connolly, Parrott Obafemi and idah for Ireland. They have all made prem league debuts and this guy is nowhere near getting a look in for us. If edoaurd griffiths and bayo were all injured he still wouldn't even make the squad. Even lee O'Connor would have more chance of getting game time at United this season. We are very slow to give lads a chance

    We need to find a way to give these lads some game time.

    Even if we don't sign a new striker this month sending him on loan to another spfl club makes sense I would think. Give him some regular game time in our own league and see what he can do then back in with us for a full pre-season next summer.
