Premier League defender

[Supervalefan1]

Welcome to the vale : Reiss greenidge :). hope he does well and maybe he might have a Good future at the vale if he impresses with his loan spell with us. lets see how he plays first before everyone starts judging him though. Chelsea wanted him last season.. so he mustn't be that bad. smurf did say he wanted youth talent...we will have to wait and see :).

It's Reiss Greenidge - a six foot five inches defender. News will be on OVF front page soon.

 

2 new defenders in one day, welcome to both and may you enjoy your time here and be successful.

 

I guess this could mean the Streete deal is off perhaps, but we will have to wait and see on that one. Good on Vale for making sure we got reinforcements in though.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IOzAkXkAwLo i think we have found a great youth prospect from West Brom :). the exact type of a defender which we need in this team.

He appears to be the tall, dominant centre half we have been craving. It's good to see Smurf address the weakest part of the squad.

 

I'm very surprised that we have a 'view to a permanent' if he had Chelsea sniffing around at him. It's still very refreshing to see youngsters be brought in though.

apparently he isn't interested that chelsea were after him.. he wants to play first team football :). and hopefully he will get that at vale :). i think we have finally found a tall defender who can head the ball out of the corners instead losing the first header all the time like we usually do.. so i think the height of him will be another boast for us.

This what Gladys should have done a couple of years ago!

Sounds a decent signing to me. We've needed that kind of defender and now have one. Just hope he can hit the ground running.

[BIRCHES HEAD WHITES]

the video shows that he is more than competent (in fact dominant) playing against lads in the same age bracket , hopefully he can make the step up to playing against seasoned pro's in the first team . to me he looks very similar to ant gardener and sounds as though he has a very good chance of becoming a first team regular .

Just hope he can hit the ground running.

 

...and heading!

"You've got competition" perhaps?

 

Even when we sign a youngster from a Premier League team Rob people still find something to moan at,i would guess Robertson will be more worried than Smith after today and with Smurfs comments on youth

[Paul6754]

Just the type of player we need but wish he had more experience for what is one of the most important positions on the pitch. Best of luck to him.

[LancyTony]

If we never brought in players who may be better than we have already, then we would never improve. Those players already at the Vale, who see competition being brought in, perhaps ought to be thinking they maybe need to up their own games, to be included in squads?

[valiant_593]

Great news and sounds like everything we need, sounds quality as well with some of the teams after him. Does make me slightly confused with the signing of zubar though, surely this lad will be playing with mcgivern and whilst he is away it will be Duffy and him.

At his age if he can play League football and do it well there is no reason those same scouts cant come back to watch him.....I think this is a great way to go as long as the youth is mixed with experience as well,cant wait see the lad tbh

[Supervalefan1]

Also the thing which i like about him is that he is a more down to earth person because he says he wasn't really interested in moving to Chelsea and he is more interested in playing more first team football. so he seems a good prospect in my opinion :). can't wait to see him play. maybe we might get some scouts coming down to watch him while he is on loan with us who knows.. :).
