Ahmed Abdullahi


Always looks a class above at U21 level, we should be looking at giving him some minutes in the first team if Mayenda and Isidor continue to show they're not up to it.
Be interesting to see if he gets on the bench again for Brighton. May not be premier league standard (yet) but may have something different to offer considering how limited we look without Brobbey. Clearly got an eye for goal too.

We've also got Fin Gerguisian and that Trey lad who's on loan I think. We've got some good academy strikers coming through and it could be a good time to give them some minutes.

Got nowt to lose, at least off the bench. Isidor looks a shell of himself at the minute and looks like he needs time away and surely Abdullahi is next in line.

It's not we are still in with a reasonable should of European football

It's just idealistic whilst we have a shout of finishing 8th I'd be shocked if it happens

I'd be shocked too tbh, if he can't get minutes against Port Vale when we're chasing the game, then he won't get a chance in the Prem. He should though, at least while Brobbey is out

Not totally against it but I'm sceptical whilst we are in the mix for 8th he'd get even more stick if he did it and the lad didn't perform the step up in quality is massive.
 
Abdullahi is older than Mayenda so I don't think there'd be any issue trusting him with senior football from a physical PoV. Also, if we're wanting him to gain first-team experience then surely we'd be looking at L1 or L2 level, i.e. the level of the opposition we were playing on Sunday. I certainly wouldn't have had any issue if he got on instead of Isidor - especially considering the latter's illness.
 
hes a unit, certainly outmuscles some of the u21 defences hes been up against
hes also quick and direct
amazed hes not even been on the bench...especially when you can have so many on there now

he cant be any less energetic the the blokes we have had playing at the moment
