He was one I thought had enough about him. Looks like let go and then an injury when not attached to a club.

Also, for the user name, Daddy Kuhl, RIP.

Injuries and the disastrous loan to Dundee which knocked his confidence both seem to have played a role. It also didn't help that he played in the same role as Norwood, who was probably the best midfielder in the league, and his skillset made him pretty much completely unsuitable for any other role.

Maintain we should have given him the minutes we gave to Chalobah and Ake. Oh well.

Crawley do not get beaten easily, the away games they’ve lost have all been by 1 goal.

Love him and great to see the recognition... but Solsjkaer (can't recall spelling) surely?

Pepe the Horseman As predicted Ovie Ejaria goes on to bigger and brighter things.

Ovie Ejaria is on trial at Egyptian side Zamalek where José Gomes is manager!


Trial has fallen through after he "failed to impress Zamalek."

I remember when people thought he'd walk into most Championship teams. Presumably because he certainly never ran anywhere with the ball.

It's funny a Bayern fan on reddit asked recently if the potential in Olise to play at the top level could be seen in some of his early appearances at Reading.

Anyway, I was looking through a few HNA? match reports from around the time Olise debuted ro see the general consensus, and was surprised to see more than a few posts with some fairly effusive praise for Ejaria from one Snowflake Royal.

"People" on here didn't think much of Olise in the beginning.

something about Olise that doesn't convince me


All I said was something inexplicable about him doesnt convince me


Guess even the all knowing Ian can get it wrong occasionally.

Saw Olise play very early on, can’t remember if it was an u18 game or an u21. He came on as a sub and he was clearly an exceptional talent although would never have predicted he’d be at Bayern. No idea what ‘not being convinced’ means. Trying to over analyse perhaps ? He looked at prospect from the start.

Well done, you found a post about a teenager after maybe one or two appearances, which was quickly followed a couple later by he's convinced me.

Pathetic as usual Orion

There are players whose style is suited to a higher level, and can struggle to stand out in the harum scarum Championship.

Having said that, Olise showed flashes of brilliance early on and in the lockdown season, and his development since then tells you everything you need to know.

Liam Rosenior making a decent start to life as manager of Racing Club de Strasbourg in Liege 1.

One-time Reading player Khalifa Cissé is his translator.

Tom Holmes started for Luton today (his 3rd start since he moved) and managed to get himself sent off in the 90th minute (2 yellows). Luton lost to a 95th minute Coventry winner.

Yep, nicely done - but not quite sure about the keeper's positioning.
