On what I've seen so far yes I would, certainly played well against Salisbury.
I'm sure there are better players available but if he meets Darrell's criteria who am I to argue ?

My first instinct was a tall bloke, dark hair in ponytail......nooooooo!
Agree with Bridgeman. Had some good touches at Sarum.
I wouldn't offer anymore than one season (maybe more on appearance activation).
He can definitely offer more dimension with ability on flanks or upfront. A kindof Monkey-type player chipping in with goals.
Maybe quite effective if we need to revert to a 4-3-3?
I say there's definitely room for his type of approach, but I wouldn't burst the bank for him. So, yes..

He's looked useful from what I've seen. I'd expected an announcement this week, but I sense any offer made will be for a limited period at this stage.

He looks ok, nothing special from what I saw versus the Arsenal, so its a no from me.

I've only seen him at Cirencester, where other than a hat-trick and some excellent other contributions he was virtually anonymous.
Its a guarded yes from me.

As we only have room for one more permanent signing I think we'll either give Bodin a year's deal or nothing at all and move on to another target. Bodin has done well in the outings he has had, but he is not an out-and-out winger like DC wants, so it is a difficult one.

If we only have one more permanent signing to make then a definite no from me- we can do better, but if we can make another permanent then could be a useful utility signing.

I'd like to see more of him before removing the guard! |

RB, I'm not disagreeing with you 'cos I really don't know, because I have never heard this before. So, can you share your source?  |

DC said at the q+a,one more permanant signing and then it will be loans,someone asked about midfield cover for lines,the manager said if Lines gets injured we would then loan someone to cover |

Bodin looks decent, but isn't the winger Clarke wants. It's a shame because the 3 month deal he has been offered is not great; it's just circumstances have conspired against him somewhat. |

I would say he was worth a 6 month deal, but not much more. Three months seems a bit tight, but it depends what else he gets offered, and its better than the weekly deal Puddy was on.
