Hello all, Newport County fan here! Looks as though we’ve just signed a former player of yours. Just wondering what your opinions of him were? Seems to have impressed our manager in our friendlies so far. Best of luck to you for the season

If I'm honest. A surprise to me. Thought he was good first season with us. Helped setup alot of goals and saw alot of the ball. Unfortunately he didn't score often enough and last season became inconsistent and injury prone. Decent player on his day but his day doesn't come often enough and when he looked to be getting back to his stride , another injury halted him, Annoyingly for all of us.
Will be interesting to see how he does for you.
Good luck for the new season!

Yes, bit of a surprising move for him but fair play as he works exremely hard and looks decent enough on the wing, has never been a prolific scorer so i wouldn't expect too many goals from him.
For me he was alot more useful on the right wing than up top.

Have to agree with what Hedges & Padz have said. When he was on it, he was quick, powerful and good skill, coming in off the right. His headed winner in last minute at Stockport County on Easter Monday in front of 2,500 was a highlight for me

Thank you for your insight.
I'll admit that his signing has raised a few eyebrows our end too. As with any new player though, we like to reserve judgement until we've seen him in action. It'll be interesting to see what sort of role we play him in.
