I remember this coming up a while back that he was training with Lee Molyneux in the close season. He was the one Gordon went to a few years ago , and was highly spoken of. If , as it seems, Armstrong has got the same determination and mindset...
I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that Armstrong will turn out to be a better ( impossible to measure) and more valuable footballer than Tyler Dibling.
This young man has absolutely everything to become a superstar midfielder.
I'd say 6 because he was good there for Derby and he'd probably be best there for us as he can see everything ahead of him.
He was never the furthest forward so wherever you saw those line ups i suggest not to use again :) In open play he was...
Scored a hat trick at u21s playing further forward, played deep at Derby , very capable at 8 , just let him develop. We are in the best position to do that , as last night showed he was allowed to move about a bit and be monitored how he played...
Problem with Armstrong is simple, right now we don't know exactly what position he will develop into, a good problem to have, but also one we need to figure out. We send him on loan then it's at the decision of some lower league manager where he...
He did everything tonight that he did at Derby last season , short passes, longer through balls, taking the ball and turning, tackling when necessary. And a bit of maturity too, when he lost the ball he managed to poke it back to Tarks , last...
Armstrong MoM for me , was doing what we know he can do , short passes , through balls opening up the defence, sound positioning , and if Grealish can get MoM for two assists then so can Harrison.
It is sad, we won’t have a better first team fixture this season unless it’s someone like Blyth Spartans in the FA cup . Hopefully Harrison plays well enough to avoid being sent out to Oxford on loan ☹️
As expected no sign of either, instead we have Campbell and Onyango on the bench who literally have no chance of ever having an impact on the first team.
