The progress of this lad could have been part of the decision to let Palmer leave , we have accepted an offer of £45m for a lad who really is a bench warmer although with great potential , its good business by the club when we have an academy producing top class youngsters , we might take the Dippers "Net Spend Trophy" at this rate.

It’s good business if you only look at it from a financial point of view. I guess it depends what you want - an academy that produces first team players or an academy that makes money. Right now there’s not really a middle ground.

For me as a fan I couldn’t care less about the money side. I want these lads to be given a chance and in our first team. Hopefully Bobb gets a chance

Pep must rate him very highly otherwise he would've gone out on loan. I really hope we use him this season

Norway U21s beat San Marino today, Oscar assisted a United kid's goal

watched the 2nd half until OB came off, Norway dominated, Oscar was out wide right, occasionally they'd shoot the ball out to him to fiddle around a bit

Seems like the club are really hot on Bobb, I've certainly seen plenty that I like from his cameos in Pre season and last weekend. Hopefully he can keep on taking his chances.

I see in Bobb what I saw in Phil. A player who should make it at City.


I did not see this in many others.

It will be interesting to see what his pace is like in prem level. Never sure at youth level if a player is rapid or just up against much slower opposition.

Don't think he's especially quick but he's very clever. When I used to watch him in the youth team he would always find pockets of space, like Phil he automatically receives the ball on the half turn a lot aswell which gives him a half yard head start.
