3 year deal. Monty obviously thinks he can make something out of him

 

[samster]

In Monty we trust.

Monty knows him from the academy so if anyone is going to get the best out of him it should be Monty

Jeeeee whiz next signing will be welcoming back ziggy hahahaha

 

[turbo]

I thought he looked decent for the jets and monty knows him from back in the day so I think it'll work out alright for us. He'll offer more than Goddard did last season.

 

[pjennings]

I must admit I was always worried when he came on against us. Just looks like a player that will attract penalties as he goes into the box.

Don't hold your breath. ?

Now - Garang and Faz please. And Matty in some role!!

Plus an extension for Birraz.

And then just to be greedy, Sains via the marquee fund.

I can only imagine with those couple early games where he was insanely good, that it was monty who had him playing like that. Then with Staj something didn't gel and he went to shit.

Massive risk because we've seen how polar his days are. It's not just the breaking legs, its the general lack of effort when he's off.

 

[pjennings]

Worth noting that he is only 21 and is a dual English citizen. So a long term deal with a view to him going OS may be part of the plan.

3 year deal says a lot. I was at the point of thinking I was happy he'd moved on after flopping when he left us, but he did play well initially coming from Monty and struggled under other coaches. A 3 year deal suggests Monty does believe he can bring out his potential and work ethic and if so provides another potential x-factor and future development sale.

I'm definitely in the Monty knows his trade camp and so 3 years gives me confidence that he's confident.

Like everyone i am very happy with the Beni announcement. The longer the season went the better he got and turned into a fantastic signing.

by season end i was nearly demanding we given him an extension

This is a huge leap of faith for Monty and he’s backing his own coaching and man management abilities.. I do back Monty 1000% until proven otherwise.
Not going to lie though, this has shocked me. BUT there is a player in there somewhere, perhaps Monty is the guy to bring it out on a consistent basis. I’ll reserve my judgement for a few games/starts.

pinklady’s comments long ago about his attitude and work rate rang true for me last season, I’m sure injuries weren’t the reason he was barely sighted for an extremely average Jets team. Hopefully he’s coming ready to fight for a starting spot.

 

[JoyfulPenguin]

I think Silvera on a three year deal is a good move. He had experience overseas in Portugal and will only be better for it. He is a very experienced for such a young player. Maybe I am too optimistic but he reminds me of Aaron Mooy early in his career.

Monty also knows him better than anyone and how to manage him properly.

His main competition to get on the pitch was Thurgate, Penha and Mikeltadze wasnt it? Probably playing in the worst possible positions of that team to get more minutes.

Plus hes not going to be on massive money anyway.

I agree with the penha competition, but thurgate was deeper and Beka a #9.
Dont get me wrong, I’m not writing him off this early. I’m just expecting to see a better working attitude.

My thoughts too. Good business if we can find another sucker club to drop a couple of hundred k on him… again
