Good news IMO.

[RJack]

Please for the lad he looked good against Tranmere last game of the season.  I reckon he'll do well next season if given the chance

[Langers]

Agree, he's looked decent the few times i've seen him play.

[MichaelPook]

excellent news - make him first choice right back - and move Caddis to wing ... Amankwaah remember can play left back pretty well

[Dr Pierre Chang]

Amankwaah remember can play left back pretty well

Based on what?

I'm fairly sure he has never played left back for us, or any other club in his career.

[Kinky Tom]

he played at left back a couple of times, mainly a forced change during matches, wouldn't say i'd have him there as a regular starter at all.

with caddis and thompson on the right we'd be lacking in a bit of arrial power

[Trashbat?]

I would rather we just signed a left back than playing people out of position for the sake of it

[jayohaitchenn]

He looks a decent prospect this one. Hopefully he gets a chance.

[Benzel]

Glad to hear it, hasn't he attracted glances from the likes of Arsenal?

I may have made that up.

[Iffy's Onion Bhaji]

Seems like a good attacking full back. Haven't really seen a lot of him though to be honest.

Nope - there were definitely some PL clubs interested in him a couple of years ago. Guess they lost interest.

Hope he is given a chance as he's done ok the few times I've seen him. Like the idea of him at RB and Caddis RM.
