Well rated by one of my Argyle mates. Good positional sense and the potential to score a lot of goals if played with the right target man.

In our desperate situation I think this is potentially a good signing albeit on a 28 day loan.
Thank you Alex and Derek Adams for helping us out in our hour of need.
We need all the help we can get at present.

Definitely potential for him and Keating to work well together.

Same from one of mine. Described him as a cracking little player.

Much as I admire his endeavour; I defy anyone to 'work well together' with Keating.....I don' think anyone else has a clue what he is going to do off the ball and I'm sure he doesn't!

Fro what I know of his playing style, I think he will be paired with Reid instead of Keating who will drop out until a more supportive type of forward can be procured to play alongside him ~ either that or he will be viewed as an impact sub at first.

I said in another thread he would be a good signing (hopefully he will prove to be). Just a shame it didn't happen sooner, and that it's only for a month. You can see he's got potential. He's just been wasting away under Derek Adams so I'm hoping he can be a real success at Torquay.

As for the target man to play alongside him - Blissett anyone??!

Nobody is 'wasting away' at a League 1 club and he month is the standard youth loan period ~ it can always be renewed/extended but not curtailed.

Agree - has to be Reid - Keating is still work in progress- potential is there, but a bundle of raw energy is not enough, he needs to read the game better.

He is a good player, who has been scoring goals lately and is from Torquay!!

A great capture and dangerous in the box. Let's hope that he gets a chance to prove his obvious potential for us. Scored for Argyle in their 2-1 loss to Fleetwood, in October.
