    Seems stupid that the rules state that a player can be registered at three clubs now, but they can still only play for two!!

    Really nice goal from Daniel in the second clip. 

    Good build up but an even better finish.

    Showed strength, skill and determination. Followed by a cool finish and a joyful reaction from him

    For those interested, Kanu is currently priced up at 50/1 by Bet365 to be top League 2 goalscorer with E/W terms 1/4 the odds for 4 places.

    Can't deny any of that but if i was the Chesterfield manager i'd be fuming at the centre back who was so weak in the tackle that allowed Kanu to win it and go through.

    That'll do him the world of good. Self- made goal, coolly taken in front of their Covered End.

    He’s too good for league 2 - should have been a league 1 loan. Apparently can’t even be recalled and loaned up a league because he’s already played for us this season. 

    Silly for the sake of 30 mins in a cup we don’t even take seriously! 
    To me, he’s looked a bit short on confidence recently when he’s turned out for us. 
     
    I think there’s an argument that he less needs season that challenges him, and, because he’s been around our first team plenty already, more so needs a season that builds his confidence. If he can score a few more goals by playing at League 2 that might help him more, and he will still be learning.

    Will be good enough. Bright lad. Will be our 'main man' in 24 months. Walsall lucky to have him. He will get 20 goals for them this year if staying healthy.

    Good goal will give him some confidence…

    Win the ball and go on to score a goal like that and opposition managers will want to nullify the chances of it happening against them when they play Walsall. Like TC, he will have two defenders watching him closely now and up close and personal when he gets the ball.

    I'd forgotten about that rule. Great for Walsall though, as it's unlikely we'd recall him to use him ourselves this season 
    Especially good for them considering what happened last season

    Chance for Kanu to be a big fish in a small pond.

    He's a decent, hard working player.

    Remember, football is also played first in the mind

     It's not just ability with the ball, half of being a footballer is self confidence and belief

    Wouldn't be surprised if he's already won Walsall's goal of the season 🏆

    Having just scored again, I doubt that he will still be 50/1 post game but 33/1 or more will still be E/W value if that is available.

    I had a little taste at 50-1, esp as he can't be recalled, well can't play for another side. I still think hes gonna have a massive future with us. Can see him getting 20 goals thus year in league 2. Will do his confidence a world of good.

    I was wrong. 50/1 is still available on the same terms as above.

    I don't normally bet, but I've jumped on at that price. Ridiculous odds.

    It's a great price, but if he is smashing it there, we could quite easily pull him in January and send him to league 1

    Pretty sure someone said we can’t as he’s already played for 2 clubs this season

    The boy’s got his mojo back. Could this be Ahearn-Grant to Crawley MkII?

    Good chop back to lose the defender before tucking it away
