Re: new signing Bohan Dixon

Cookie was on Radio Lancs tonight talking about this lad. Apparently he's not been signed to go straight into the team, but rather to see how he develops with full-time training, etc.

If it all works out then everyone benefits, including Bohan himself. Seems like a good move and one that I hope pays dividends.

Re: new signing Bohan Dixon

Oliver Bierhoff I remember was 24 before he got spotted!

Re: new signing Bohan Dixon

I think this may be too big a step up, and as f19 said, nowadays 22 isn't really classed as a young lad anymore. However, it's a refreshing change to have an inexperienced lad that has a bit of bulk about him, in my opinion it gives him a good base allowing him to train more on his skills instead of juggling with the issue of piling on plenty of muscle. Hope we've found a diamond in the rough!

22 is young enough to be "spotted".
Aw shucks!! I am 60 and I am still waiting to be spotted!!!
Let's hope the lad can make it good.
Good luck to you Bohan. Just work hard at the fitness!!
