Omari Kellyman

[PaulWinch again]

Lee Carsley was at a funeral round our end last week. My mate was talking to him and he said Kellyman was the best  midfield prospect he’s seen in years. Said he’s got everything - tackling, passing, dribbling, finishing.

Let’s bloody hope so.

Be nice to see another academy kid flourish and not be sold off. Fingers crossed .

I thought he was more of a forward/number 10 than a midfield prospect.

I would likw kellyman to have got more minutes tbh esp in europe

Probably would have if he hadn't been injured.

Yeah, more of a Bellingham than a Watkins though I’d say.

The only Euro games he could've played in were against Ajax, fit or not, he wasn't registered until January.

Which would have meant him getting 'more minutes' , plus Demitri was also referring to 'more minutes' in general.

and I was just pointing out that the injury didn't stop him getting them in Europe, nothing more. Giving him time in the Quarter-Final when he hasn't appeared before would've been a bold call.

Will Kellyman and Rogers be jostling for the same position ? Can't quite make out where either of them both play but I'd describe both as attacking wide midfield.

I don't think so, Rogers will play wide left or up front whereas I think they see Kellyman as more an centre mid or attacking mid. The only spot I can see them sometimes competing for is as a 10 behind Watkins/Duran.

Congrats on your league debut young man

[Small Rodent]

Good to see the young fellow get a good 20 minutes against probably the best team in the world.

Great experience for him.

[dcdavecollett]

Best team in the World?

You forgot Dave W's asterisk!

[pablo_picasso]

Good to see him get some solid minutes.

You can tell that Emery really rates him.
