Kwame Returns !
Re: Kwame Returns !
Not sure how you used him obvs, but for us last season he was great to bring off the bench & either slow the game down when we were winning or a target to hold the ball up and do all the underappreciated dirty work. It probably wasn't ideal for him as he left but we definitely have missed having him as we didn't replace.alanweufc wrote: ↑Thu Mar 27, 2025 11:35 pm I hope for your sakes that coming back to you rekindles his enthusiasm as he certainly rarely showed it at Ebbsfleet. Earned the nickname, ",The Lamp post" due to his unwillingness to move very far/ chase the ball. Rarely managed to hold the ball up or win headers either. We reckon ,based on the description you all give, that we must have signed his twin brother as we never saw any of the attributes you give him. 3 goals in 35 games tells the story (& 1 of those was a penalty). Admittedly he rarely played 90 minutes but we were all glad he won't be playing for us again.

and you may ask yourself, well....how did I get here?
Re: Kwame Returns !
Hear Hear - different sort of player, but Max was starting to really impact games with his introduction.
Maybe we will see both him and Kwame up top in the latter stages of games.
Re: Kwame Returns !
Got a feeling Mullins might have to leave Shots if he wants to play regular first team football
Re: Kwame Returns !
Possibly, which would be a shame - I think he has something he can offer us next season.
Tommys quote about Kwame though..."He's here until the end of the season, at least" felt telling though.
Id keep both and release Ghandour honestly

Re: Kwame Returns !
Well we don't need him to score (Barrett and Henry do that) or to run (Barham does that) so it should be a good fit!alanweufc wrote: ↑Thu Mar 27, 2025 11:35 pm I hope for your sakes that coming back to you rekindles his enthusiasm as he certainly rarely showed it at Ebbsfleet.

Re: Kwame Returns !
But Silas, there are games where Josh and James are shackled by the opposition and fail to fire, and Jack runs himself into the ground without scoring, and then we need options and something extra. Maxi has been a great option late on this season and Kwame was last season.Silasgoldeen wrote: ↑Fri Mar 28, 2025 1:54 pmWell we don't need him to score (Barrett and Henry do that) or to run (Barham does that) so it should be a good fit!alanweufc wrote: ↑Thu Mar 27, 2025 11:35 pm I hope for your sakes that coming back to you rekindles his enthusiasm as he certainly rarely showed it at Ebbsfleet.

OK, I understand that Ebbsfleet have not seen from Kwame what we got from him last season. But this happens. Some players fit into some clubs, but not others. Styles of play suit some players but not others. It's a matter of knowing strengths and weaknesses and setting up teams accordingly.

Re: Kwame Returns !
Exactly that, we all know Kwame isn’t a 90 minute player, but he can cause some damage even in short spells. It was a surprise signing but isn’t one I am wandering, Why ?Charles Dickens wrote: ↑Fri Mar 28, 2025 9:33 am Clearly Tommy Widdrington is serious about reaching the playoffs and Wembley and sees him as a sub to come off the bench when the going gets rough, as it will do.
Happy days,get behind Tommy.
