Seems like a strong player who can hold the ball up well but does he have what we need? Quite tall and lanky too reminds me of some of the players Woking had with these giant legs that seem to always dig the ball away from people lol. He's a young lad though so maybe dropping down a level will bring out his best. Seems to have done well in cup games where he scored a few.

Would be happy with this one, seems to have that endeavour that we need chasing stuff down. Looks strong too. What was Amonds scoring record before coming here? Those highlights look good to me

I don't expect him to come in and score loads of goals. If he does then great but with a front 4 of Sousa, JMD, McAtee and Taylor, it's hard to get someone else into that team.

But, physically he looks like a similar option to Taylor so will hopefully mean we always have an effective presence up there to compliment the 3 behind them.

Whether he is on the radar or not, that is the powerful and mobile forward that could fit in with how we play.

It's as important to create chances as to score them, and he looks quick enough to be a six yard box poacher.

In the video, it shows that he tends to have 2 markers doubling up on him, but in most cases, he either evades them or lays off well to a teammate in space. We have players who could thrive from that type of player.

However, this is all conjecture, if he doesn't fit into Hurst's radar, salary, location, current contract, and would he want to travel across to the ""far East".

Without being brutally cruel to The Shop, this is what is needed from an extra forward, whoever it may turn out to be in the end !

Athletic, holds the ball up ,able to run the channels. Exactly what we need. There are a few players who can score goals in our team but I think often there isn’t a comfortable ball out of defence for the willing and able runner. Lenny in his first spell was good at this but not now

Has a goal scoring record that can best be described as ‘patchy’. Scored 7 in 8 at the start of last season, then only 2 in his next 35. 3 in 7 at the beginning of this season, but then only 1 since - albeit a lot of appearances from the bench.

Still, looks to have a good pedigree in League Two and was a regular in a decent Newport side. More prolific than Taylor too, and I think most would agree he’s been a successful signing. 10 years younger as well - Abrahams only turned 23 three weeks ago.

On balance, I’d be relatively pleased with this.

Looks like a work horse with a decent touch.

He's been a handful whenever I've seen him. Direct replacement for Lenny and not the #9 we'd still be after though. Chesterfield and Wrexham are looking at bring in Vadaine Oliver and Harry Cardwell respectively. Abrahams is comfortably a better option than both of them in my opinion.
