We must do everything we can to sign this lad in January.

 

He has the potential to be the bedrock of our defence all the way through L1 and the CCC.

 

Well done to Pardew, not just for this but for everything so far. What a refreshing feeling to have a competent manager and leadership from top down.

 

I'm looking forward to our next match already. It's been a long time coming! :p

I agree, would love it if we kept hold of him. Even if it was a loan extension to the end of the season, Trotman has been terrific so far and would be annoying to lose him half way through the season.

Yep, he's been immense. He's improved so much too. Remember when he first came, he was described as a no-nonsense defender but couldn't kick it straight. Well he was throwing dummies at their strikers in tight spots, he was doing fancy turns, everything. Brilliant. Both he and Jaidi have been a breath of fresh air.

You never know! Grimsby fans might be saying that about Olly Lancashire in a few weeks? Maybe not!!

Yeah I know but surely HCDAJ in league one? Where do you think we would finish if we were moved into the CCC now? I reckon upper mid table.

I hope trotts is looking at the longer term situation...and doesn't just jump back to PNE to play at a higher level.

 

...PNE are skint and could go into administration any time soon, to possibly avoid that they will have to start selling off their better players, which will = league 1.

 

I can see a few sticky years coming up for preston....but i can see it being alot more comfortable here, with a chance of genuine silverware.

He seems happy here, and if he has really had a barney with the PNE management then all the more reason.

 

The south coast is a fantastic place to live and as a young player at this level (and probably CCC) then who would be a better man to learn from then Jaidi ??

 

Pardew also seems to be getting the best out of players and seems a great man for the youngsters to learn and grow with.

 

He was my MOM yesterday, very overlooked i thought as he didn't give the dons a sniff.

I think a good indication will be the Bristol Rovers FA Cup tie.

 

If Preston won't let him play, they are obviously expecting him back at Deepdale for January.

 

If he plays, he's clearly not in their plans

How old is he? about 22? if so I think he'll jump at the chance to stay where he is playing well and regularly

He seems so much happier on the ball now - he was just a head or hoof player when he started with us.

 

And wasn't it Trotman with the 'Delap' type throw in from the Kingsland side on Saturday, this might actually be a good ploy now we have loads of players who are good in the air?

No, it was Antonio.

Trotman was my MOTM on Saturday by a whisker.

 

Agree entirely.

My MOM too. Immense and I thought he played the ball well on the deck...I had heard that was one of his weaknesses...Anyway Needs to be kept and could be a key player as we climb back up the leagues....

 

Exactly, it's not just the fact he'd doing the business now but I think he can play a key role in the CC and possibly if continues to develop, the Prem.

 

He seems level headed and composed, doesn't give silly free-kicks away, dominant in the air, a threat at set-pieces, reads the game well and is looking useful with the ball.

 

It's a long-time since we've had such a complete centre back. I know it's early days but he has huge potential IMO.

I have said on a couple of other threads that if we only make 1 signing in Jan please let it be Trotters this lad has a future centre back is a position you get better at as you get older even if we paid a million for him I think we could still end up making money sign him up A P
