Fantastic header, that.

It is. From about 15 metres out, in the top corner. The previous one in the first passage of play wasn't too bad either: although saved, it came at him really quickly and he adjusted well to the deflection.
He’s basically the Welbeck replacement (and possibly cover in terms of player type, hence not out on loan as we don’t have anyone else similar)……..pace of development hopefully aligns with Danny staying fit for another couple of seasons.

I only saw the highlights.
Some very good play but some sloppy defending and I am sure that quite a few of the gills challenges would be a foul in a PL match but ok in L2!
Ferguson looks very promising.

The kid is scoring regularly and who better to learn off than Danny Welbeck?
I don't think this is about ability, more about being mentally ready for the highs and lows, risks and rewards of Premier League football.
This is where having 5 subs is brilliant. We can bring him as our 5th sub on with 5 - 10 minutes to go where expectation will be low and the pressure will be off, and build his confidence according to how he produces in those moments.

Great header from a cracking delivery.
Best goal of the night was the winner though – what a peach!

Nice to see the youngsters srrounding the ref and getting right in his face (quite justifiably) and getting the goal disallowed. The first team could take lessons from them .........................

Agree to a certain extent, but the loan decision was made under the previous regime, perhaps RDZ will have other ideas in January ?

Our ex scout Mark Anderson said of him "The future Teddy Sherringham, said it since he was 12"
It wouldn't be the worse thing if he gets a game at Arsenal in the cup.

Is that why he's the "ex scout" ?
He may, but it won't be solely down to him - Shannon Ruth and Gordon Greer will still have a say in young players being loaned out, surely? What is a little worrying (unless he's injured) is the apparant complete absence from anywhere near the matchday squad of Denis Undav (I always thought Dante Vanzier was the one we were going for from USG anyway!).

He’s not only near it, he’s been in it. Undav has been in the match day squad for every game this season including v Liverpool . I guess your point is he’s had relatively few minutes aside from FGR and Fulham. Probably because Welbeck and the team have been so strong/on form. That’s either a good sign or a worrying one I guess. See also Levi Colwill.
Hasn’t Undav been on the bench for every game this season
Confess I hadn't noticed him on the bench. Genuinely can't remember his services actually being called upon though.
Been told he came on for a few minutes at the end of the Fulham game .................. did he do much to impress?

“Been told” ?? - it’s not a rumour ha ha .
He scored against FGR and his progress on here has been discussed at length. In short - too early to say or not up to it - depending on your pov.
So too did Ferguson score against FGR in a minor cup. Too early to judge on Undav yet? Yes, it's early days ............. but it's still not the greatest of starts, is it? I very much doubt it's what he expected when banging in goals in Belgium and waiting to start again leading the line at Brighton and doing the same thing in the PL.
Room for improvement - and I hope it happens.

Well at least he’s in the match day squad. ! He’s doing better than you thought!
