Reigan Heskey

[Kinkladze's crazy skills]

Reigan has been brilliant this season and fully deserves his own thread...



Here's the highlights including his hat trick from the Norwich game...

 

[MCFCFanTX]

Hatty off the bench for the EDS at 16? Very impressive.

I've heard he's a bigger talent than his brother.

He makes it look quite easy, very natural and also very athletic, going to be very powerful.
It's true he's more eye catching than his brother but Jayden is playing well, grafting and linking in midfield.

From what I've seen he's a bigger talent than his Dad.

 

[BMR]

Only seen him a hand full of times but very impressed with him, he looks a real talent. He's direct and very confident and doesn't look out of place in the EDS at 16 years old. He has plenty of time to develop and hopefully will have a bright future with us.

 

[oldius]

Patience from us, and dedication and humility from him, and there's a chance.
To be playing for the EDS at 16 and looking comfortable takes some doing. Ben Wilkinson singling him out for serious praise is also quite unusual. I think it is worth also noting that his brother, Jaden, played in more of a midfield role than his usual role as a forward, and had an outstanding game too.

We’ve had so many wingers look good at that level down the years and get nowhere near the first team that it’s hard to get too excited really - Borges, Mebude, Ndala, Braaf and even going all the way back to Brandon Barker.

Never lose the enthusiasm - the merest chance of an academy player making it to the top of world football is an absolute thrill.

Looks a great prospect from what I've seen of him, if he continues to progress hopefully he'll get a chance unlike Delap*.

Has his birth certificate been signed by whoever signed Roger Millas?

* Delap would even after his injuries been a great option from the bench.

What does this mean?

 

[blue b4 the moon]

What does this mean?

I should have put a ' in his name but, anyone of an age, I assume you're a young 'un will know, he declared being considerably younger than he looked at the world cup.

Have a look at him in his early days.

Be interesting to see what happens with this lad, seems to have all the attributes to go on for a good career, but will it go the foden/Lewis/o Reilly route or will it be the Palmer/Rodgers/Delap/Gittens/frimpong style?

Jayden is going on loan in the January window.

 

[TonyColemansbagofapples]

Will do him good. Just hope he goes to a club who will appreciate him.

Dippers could do worse. They need a right sided forward that can press.

 

[Centurions]

Jayden is going on loan in the January window.

Any idea on who's sniffing around Jayden?

There are a few championship clubs interested. Sheffield Wednesday want him. They have a transfer embargo that is due to be lifted in the January window.
Whether they are the right club, I am not too sure
