[Albion] Eiran Cashin

[Greg Bobkin]

Their fans are all talking about this being a great bit of business on their part.

A lot of the Leeds fans said that about Georginio, too, though

 

[RandyWanger]

He looks like that irish flop the dullard had us keep while letting the Swedish Ronaldo go. For that, I'm out.

 

[southstandandy]

I've seen a reasonable bit of him on the Championship highlights and a few games Derby have been shown. Yes, he has the turning speed of an oil tanker and is very slow, but maybe the club see something else in him?

 

[The Fits]

Wasn’t he 4 million last summer?

Signed a new contract in February

 

[The Fits]

Well either way this is worrying.

 

[Flounce]

Never seen him play but he sounds to me to be totally and utterly unsuited to a club looking to be top 10 in the PL. Small, slow and turning circle of a tanker. Anyone know what good attributes he has?

Not vaguely enthused but the club don’t get much wrong. Having said that my Chelsea supporting mate I took to the Everton game thinks Colwill is shit, so one fans great is another’s shit. See Igor comments last season

Emergency striker for when Webster is injured?

The first post on this thread says £3m. In haggling over a few hundred thousand, it looks like we're going to pay way more than double that amount, to get him.

Maybe FH wants a new forward partnership - it will be Webster and Cashin.

Ask him what he thinks of Sanchez? Obviously he'll say he's shit.


So nothing uncontroversial there, but still, it's lovely to hear.

Think I'm going to trust our recruitment department ahead of Derby's fans!

I've watched him on TV a few times and once in the flesh as I said on here last year earlier in this thread. As I mentioned then, I was really impressed by him. I thought there was something about him and he really stood out at that level. I picked him out before I even knew it was him who we'd been linked with previously. He didn't look like a typical Championship/League One player.

Obviously we don't know how he will adapt to PL football but personally I'm pleased if we are completing the deal this time.

Indeed, he has no idea why Sanchez is their keeper but loves Cucurella and Caicedo….in fact on the drive back from the Amex on Saturday and listening to the Chelsea game on the radio, Sanchez obliged and made his inevitable ricket to give City the lead.

Indeed. A friend of mine rated him as a player but thought we had overpaid. Time will tell, but I think in the long term we may have been just about right.

 

[Hometownglory]

Not sure a slow centre back playing at the bottom of the Championship is what we need. It was obvious when White was on loan at Leeds he was standing out and was pivotal to Leeds promotion. You could see that he'd be able to make that step up. This transfer is Matt Clarke 2.0.

P.s. I haven't seen him play and I'm not a scout, so my opinion is irrelevant.

I think he has got a decent long pass on him.

 

[pigmanovich]

On the subject of pace, if we go by EA FC 25 stats, while Cashin's rating of 58 is a far cry from Tomori's 84 and St Juste's 93 , it's a marginal improvement on JPVH's 55, Webster and Veltman's 54, and Dunk's 41. So our defense is not getting any slower at least!

Ben White was already our player sent out to a Championship club for experience.

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

So the stats say he's good but the scouts say he's a shiter.
