Sinclair Armstrong

[Sleeping Giants]

Anyone know how good he really is? Looks like we might lose him, wonder whether he's good enough for the first team any time soon?

He is only 17

Even at the age of 17 his agent will be advising him not to sign a new deal . Man City and other clubs want him , it’s not really about getting in QPRs first team for him , it’s more about getting himself to one of the top clubs as quickly as possible.I would hope we are due compensation/ development fee as we scouted him and gave him a pathway into professional football.

Another Raheem Sterling type deal would do nicely then

Sterling was playing for England a year after we sold him. Play the lad and let's see

He’s free to leave in the summer , he maybe the next Sterling or he could well be the next Dean Parret or Josh Bowler .Club can’t win with players at this age , some are badly advised and end up not progressing as they would had they stayed.

Bellingham started at 16 for Brum and progressed onto a bigger club after a couple of years.Short term and blinkered to be looking for move to a big club so early.

What is the point of youth programs?
Clubs like Rangers have to just watch greedy prem clubs steal away potential talent before they're worth anything.
We might as well scrap it and the academy.

The greed of football driven by money and agents offering fast cars d&g clothing looking a pimp in a blinged out car s####y house catalogues of beautiful women

where do I sign! That’s what we’re up against

What was that deal?

What was that deal?

We sold him for £1M and a % of the sell on fee.

Agree. Put him in the team like Birmingham did with Bellingham. Maybe we can then sell him or at least get a decent compensation package.
what position does he play. He might be better than what we currently have in the team!!

The powerful striker – a Republic of Ireland U17 international – will link up with Paul Furlong’s U18s squad to continue his development.

Armstrong had been with Rovers since 2017 and made his senior debut for the League of Ireland Premier Division club aged just 15.

From last October
