In honesty, if we could get one of Jebbers, Dias or Flores in the next couple of years, it would be a pretty solid outcome for us. With Ayo now in, and Corbeanu committing a while ago, our attacking future is almost getting locked down already. Now if only we could start churning out top class centre backs... costarg and Ivan 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atlantic Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 Anything can happen I guess but I’d be surprised if Jebbison was on the roster and nothing gets leaked well in advance. Same can be said for Flores. Ivan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Jebbison was going to be there why wouldn't they announce it with Ayo? narduch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly because it wouldn't be official yet? With Akinola, his one-time switch means he is officially cap-tied. Even if Jebbison is on the 23-man squad, if he doesn't play he isn't cap-tied. So maybe they're just not wanting to announce anything until it's official. I wouldn't be surprised if he's not on the 23-man though. I still think (hope) he will commit sometime this year though, if not for this tournament. Obinna 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frmr Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 He has three lions and @england on his Instagram profile. Not sure how long that has been there but that can't be a good sign. Hopefully just in support of their Euros campaign. Ivan and Obinna 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re young, who knows, maybe we see Jeb and Ayo line up as our two CB’s as early as next year! Vittoria has more goals than many forwards too!

We all know he's the youngest debutante to score in the EPL, but he's also the 8th youngest scorer period. He's scored at a younger age than Raheem Sterling, Gareth Bale, Mason Greenwood, Serge Gnabry, Rio Ferdinand, Marcus Rashford, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.. all of which got their first goals in the 17-18 range. Some pretty good company to be ahead of in the record books. Edited July 21, 2021 by frmr Obinna 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dyslexic nam Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 Do we really expect him to commit at this point? Don’t get me wrong - I would absolutely love to see him in red and white. But are we just going on the fact that we have an injury to fill and he was on our 60 man list (and he unfollowed England)? Seems a bit of a stretch - but I really hope I am wrong about it. Maybe this is one of those lucky cases where he really does feel Canadian and patriotism is a major influence. narduch and The Real Marc 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obinna Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 It could also be that unfollowing England means nothing, because not everything has a cryptic meaning. He could of just been bored with the account. It is only curious for us because we are looking for any and all possible signs from him.

Unnamed Trialist Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 Hearing his brothers were both playing lower tier in England made me think his family was more firmly bound to the English cause. I'm not sure if it's time for him to abandon it yet frankly. But if he has his own view of things, I'm flattered. Obinna 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apbsmith Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 (edited) The reality is if we do make WC 2022, with Herdman and team chemistry, morale etc etc. I'm not sure he really let's anyone walk right in to the WC show who wasn't part of the process. Especially with all our attacking options unless we are slaughtered with injuries up front or something. I always thought he would commit and join at some point during this WCQ cycle because of above. Time will tell. He's top 5 on our strikers depth chart is he even top 15 in England? Guys banging in 20+ in the championship in England don't even get a whiff of the England national team.

toontownman Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Not that he is all that accurate but wasn't it Wheeler, maybe platt, that said it was looking positive for Jebbison in the fall for Canada? The instagram and twitter unfollow does seem trivial except I actual don't think it is. Firstly does anyone actually do the unfollow thing intentionally unless it's someone that has upset you. The England accounts don't fall under that scenario unless it's an unnecessary follow for his career. If you are an English player with intentions to play for England you don't unfollow both their accounts imo. Could be a ploy/message to the English FA to hint he is going elsewhere if he isnt given more English attention. That is very far fetched though, not least when he made the last u19 squad. He is a million miles away from a full call up too. Those scenarios are if he even manages either of those accounts anyway. If he isn't I would say it's even more telling the were unfollowed. He has great potential for international minutes with Canada immediately, he doesn't with England is far past double digits in the queue. Not least he is Canadian. I don't expect him in the GC. They arent bringing someone from Europe over for what could be just 90 mins of which he might get 20. I do expect him in the fall, IF he continues to get minutes with Sheffield United. johnyb, An Observer, Obinna and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wheeler did say it was hopeful we would see him in September. Not sure what exactly he based it off, but Herdman did say the challenge for him in accepting the call was that his preseason with a new manager was important for him to be a part of and that Herdman couldn’t guarantee him minutes if he did come. You would think he would be willing to come during a Fifa window when he’s not missing anything at Sheffield Utd. I know I’m biased but if I was Jebbo I would be coming for WCQ. Logically it all adds up. toontownman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
