Don't know why we need another young keeper with Loach and the promising North coming through. Perhaps Priskin is a bit loney and fancied some young male Hungarian company
Perhaps we should of gone for that Ronaldinho fella? would've given Rinaldi someone to keep an eye on and have a chatter to . . .
clearly hes shown potential for a 16 yea old and should keep prisken some company, with this extra friend hes now going to get into double figures
Hornets hungary for keeper Watford have swooped to sign Hungarian starlet Botond Antal from Ujpest. The 16-year-old goalkeeper has enjoyed trials at Nottingham Forest and Reading, but he has now accepted the offer from Watford. "I know every day [in my career] I must practice, I've never been satisfied with what I've reached," an ambitious Antal told Nemzeti Sport. Antal will turn professional at Vicarage Road once he turns 17. Ujpest coach Istvan Urbanyi admits he could not stand in the way of Antal's move to England "There's a theory that at this young age one shouldn't allow the player to move abroad, first he should play and get stronger in the Hungarian 1st Division" Urbanyi said "I cant deny this oppinion, but I think every footballer is different in many points. Botond received an offer that would have been a mistake to reject and not only on the side of money. It is a happy end if he goes because surely he'l; become a proffessional goalkeeper"
Well that signing will have absolutely no effect on the first team for at least 3 years, probably more. Lets all make a mental note and move on.
you aren't going to say we dont want him because we already have good young keepers - not all of them will turn out good, and if they do it means we make a tidy profit. hopefully they'll all teach each other something and become the 3 best keepers in the world
Will be a decent signing. Obviously, he can not be considered as a great signing as yet , as he could turn out crap, but a 16 year old goalkeeper with potential sounds good, and we may well see him in 3ish years. However lets sign some players that will improve the first team
Bit skinny isn't he? I suppose he's only a nipper and he'll fill out. Well hopefully it will be a decent signing.
also thought he was a bit lanky but suppose doesn't matter so much with a goalie. I wouldnt get too excited loads of goalies are tipped to be the next best thing and dissapoint
should give loach some competition for our best young keeper, although obviously loach is older and as already said lot of keepers never become the end product people thought they would e.g Richard wright tipped as englands next number 1 now isnt even in the set up
So this kid will be the reserves keeper when Loach goes out on loan or will he starts as academy goalie with the NI youth int. stepping up to reserves duty?
Jonathan North is Welsh as he played for Wales u16 vs England u16 in which he was MoM in a game that he played superb
Have to agree with that, it's good we are building for the future, and you never know, another Hungarian may bring a happier Tamas to the pitch...?
Oh yeah just abit of info about Botond. He is actually 15 and will sign a pro contract with us when he is 16 he is also aloud to play for the Hungarian team Ujpest and can play for Watford on a temporary contract. Thats we havent announced the signing on the OS.
