Fella I know who is connected with the club reckons he is one of the brightest lads coming through. If I could pronounce his name I would be telling all and sundry too!!
I've seen him a few times and I can see why there are similarities between him and Defoe. He's very quick, quite strong for such a young lad and full of commitment.
Most importantly he can score goals. At the pre-season match at Stonebridge road he was far and away our best player and worked tirelessly up front, caused all sorts of problems for their defence and scored a cracking chipped goal and with a bit of luck on the night could have had a hatrick.
Don't get carried away, their is a big, big difference in the level they are playing at the moment to league level. And that counts down to League 2, having said that it won't do any harm putting them in the squad on the bench, just travelling etc etc.
Too much too soon can be a very bad thing though seeing the way are fans are with anyone who has a half shady game. That would proabably destroy him!
I've seen him a few times and although skilful and nippy looks a bit lightweight. Not as much potential as Jamie Martin or Onome Sodje at the same age.

Something funny happened with Onome Sodje. The lad bangs them in regularly in the conference and is still a teenager. Why did we let him go?
You wont see him in the 1st team any time soon. Expect him to be packed off to one our overseas feeder clubs. Maybe 2-3 years time you might see him back
Why will he go to one of our overseas feeder clubs? Surely when the time is right he would get league experience at a div 2 club like Asward Thomas, Josh Wright and Grant Bassey did.
He changed his name to Chima Orelaja, then changed it back to Danny Uchechi. According to one of the match programmes last season, it was something to do with where he was living.
I heard people mention him having work permit problems a few months ago, so I wouldn't be surprised if thats true about him playing in Denmark or Belgium.
how feck can that happen why spend thetime developing him as a youth player if he needed a work permit,there's no guarantee you are going to get one,seems a bit of a waste of money,are we not entitled to compensation a la Bostock if he goes elsewhere.

Start putting him in a few squads I say. Are we sometimes too bloody cautious with our youngsters

Maybe spending a couple of years in Spain getting a EU work permit I heard.
But you may well be right. We shall see.
