Kees Smit, Paper Talk and Suggestion

[DutchEagleJohan]

Came out in the Daily Mail in England and we certainly could do worse. Defensively nowhere near as proven as Wharton but in attacking sense very similar. Not often positive about players from the Dutch league as the level is so different it seems a different sport compared with he PL but this would be a gamble worth taking. Wost case scenario, assuming he would not be on silly money, he could still be sold back to the top of the Dutch League.

Palace plot to beat Euro giants to 19-year-old compared to De Bruyne

SIMON JONES: The 19-year old is emerging as one of the brightest midfield talents produced by the Netherlands in recent years with comparisons already being drawn with De Bruyne.

I thought he stood out for them this eve and most of their promising attacks started or went through him. Looks a smart player with certainly a few similarities to Wharton. I'd definitely be happy if we stepped up our interest in January.

I thought the captain was decent.

Yes, he can also beat a player, and looked reasonably quick, i think he would also be a better option in one of the Number 10 roles, definitely better than Kamada or Devenny in that role. and strong and tall.

Ye he did also look useful. Not so often you see such a tall player playing in that position.

Ye I think he'd be a great option to have in any of the midfield positions tbh.

With Lerma, Kamada contact situations, Hughes not getting any younger, Wharton constantly linked with moves away, Doucoure struggling with injuries, it could well be a position we add to. Last night wouldn't have done him any harm.

I kept reading his name as "sh!t" on the back of his shirt (which he wasn't). Also, if we did sign him, would he be our first ginger player since Hopkins?

Thought he was really impressive for just 19 - already stood out amongst his teammates.

Hope we at least ask the question about doing a deal.

Ben Watson?

Of course!

Ben Watson?

Thought he dyed it.

Thought he dyed it.

No, he's still alive.

Thought he dyed it.

He was a true blue red head.

Aggressive, whole-hearted player who liked a tackle even in training.

Given the links I looked out for him last night. Tidy player, good feet. Clearly got something about him.

Wharton will start getting mega interest soon, so I'd rather we move on someone like him sooner rather than later.

Big lad that came on up top looked like he could move too!
