Martell Taylor-Crossdale Signs

[AnOldBrownie]

Welcome to the family.   Time to follow him on twitter.


Looks to have good hold up play...body type reminds me of Anguissa.

Aged 19 should be near the first team squad now? Allan Clarke....Steve Earle...Roy Dwight....

Wondering how much our new youth coach who spent a lot of time with England youth teams may have had to do with this as well as some obviously the likes of the sessegnon twins and Harvey elliot etc.

[The Rational Fan]

I suspect the fact that we need to name seven homegrown players in every matchday 18 means he knows either him or Fonte is on the bench every game and he fancies his chances. As we only have nine first team homegrown players including Betts, Rodak, Christie, S.Sess, Mawson. Bryan, Cairney, Fonte and MTC.

Martell off to a good start as he scored for the Under 23's v Braga B team in a 1-1 draw in Portugal

[fulhamben]

He scored again today in our 3 1 win against Porto under 19s. 2 goals in 2 games.

[Woolly Mammoth]

That's a good habit to have.

For me he is the Vietto replacement, who was Piazon's replacement but good this time we have brought someone in on a permanent with the potential to develop, step up and make a contribution during the season

[70sPimlico]

I noticed he was pictured with Seany Davis. Is he on the staff now?

[GJB]

2 goals and one assist in two games. Decent that. Could he be a face we see broken into the first team at some point this season as a sub for Mitro?

[Neutral Zone Ultra]

I noticed he was pictured with Seany Davis. Is he on the staff now?

no, Sean is part of the agency company that represents Martell.

[Fernhurst]

Two games and a goal 🥅 in each.

Bright start to his Fulham career.

[Maidstone Lee]

I look forward to following his progress. Can imagine he will get game time in the EFL trophy and FA/League cup games this season.

[KeenCottager]

Should definitely be playing him in the cup games to give Mitro some rest

[bobby01]

Some Porto highlights on the offal, looks like he has good movement and vision.


Wonder who the trial list was in goal

[MikeW]

Chelsea almost never release their players on free transfers. Piazon and Kalas have no chance at breaking through, yet they renew their contracts to let them go on loan. Taylor-Crossdale did not go out on loan and got limited time in their reserves, which is what happens to their players that refuse to renew their contracts.

I think you will find that Kalas has properly signed for B City - record fee for them apparently.

[Tabby]

Yes, but my point was more that he didn't have any chance at breaking through at Chelsea, and he signed a new contract so he would be allowed to join us on loan.
