Just thought i'd bump the lad up and say I thought he has been fantastic so far this season, looked really dangerous and if he can stay I can see him bagging at least 10 goals and assists. I don't think there is a full back in the league that can handle him on his day, makes it look so easy
In my latest vid I reckon I have at least 4 clips where he is just gliding, could have bagged himself a couple against Peterborough on another day

Conversely he needs to hit the target more. For a player who shoots as much he does, he misses the target a lot. If he can add that final piece to his game he would be unstoppable at this level.

We could also train the squad to have a runner in the box hitting the back post.
I thought he tried to curl the second one. Either way, for me, on his day he is one of the best wingers in the league. His shooting isn't always the best but didn't he score 8 last season whilst missing a chunk of season? Definitely needs a contract sorted in my opinion. He's often our main/only outlet
In the premier league we would probably have a striker sliding in at the far post rather than watching the shot go wide. They were close and wrong to criticise CBT in any way, not so long ago he would have balooned the shot over and his shooting and crossing has noticeably improved. For me he is our best chance of winning our next two home games.
Some players just have that preference for a shoelace belter, rather than a curler or sidefoot.
It doesn't mean that if he attempts the latter more, that he will be accurate with it. But I'd have thought a club would coach which kind of shot to take at different opportunities, when presented with a sight at goal.

I agree, the issue is then would he even be with us. He can use both feet, he's quick, strong and doesn't seem to tire too easily.
I agree with what other posters have said, we need him on a longer contract. Even as an impact sub he will always have a place in this squad in my eyes
I am surprised he made this team, he has been a standout player but I find it hard to believe there wasn't a better player in the league.
Beautiful assist and had his fullback on toast but he should have probably got a goal.
Loving him this season though, he's made a mockery of every full back so far (Leyton Orient in particular) and he's been managing the 90 minutes which is nice.
I must be watching a different player to some of these people who have raved about him, I think he is toilet. Can't cross, can't shoot, doesn't track back, stands at the halfway line a lot of the time, turns it on when he wants. 9/10 of his crosses barring the one to Kanu have resulted in a turnover in play, surely he must have noticed May isn't 6"5 and is about 5"9 so smashing them in the air probably isn't the best idea?

Definitely watching a different player to me, he's our only creative outlet at the moment. As for can't cross - we have scored 4 goals and half of them have come from his crosses.

I’ve seen some takes but this one is right up there, deserves a LOL

He looks like our only creative outlet at the moment, and the fact is that he gets doubled and tripled up which causes poor final balls. He is a very good L1 winger, and the fact that we started the season with him at wingback didn't thrill me, even if it was in a lopsided team. It's just without Fraser, Camara, Campbell, Miles, and Aneke everything that we do in terms of attack either goes through him running with the ball or lumping it into the channels to get May in behind. And teams have scouted that. So even if CBT beats his man, the opposition can let him cross and just put three in the box knowing they're probably going to beat May and whoever is alongside him to the ball.
To me that's not CBT's fault, it's the limitations of the way we're currently playing.

Sign him up.
The stats between the two shows the difference in output.
Cory's 2 shots on Saturday both seemed to flash across the box, rather than curl into the corner.

…..you must be watching a different player

He has all of the physical ability, and he’s not far away from being very, very good technically too.
He’s worth continuing with for a while yet IMO. If and when he breaks out and goes to the next level, the team that has him will be very lucky.
There is a talent there but he makes the wrong decision more often than not. If he were consistent he'd be a level above.
