You should be a scout for Argyle mate.

I remember us signing some non league striker called Mariner. Whatever happened to him?

They've got another player there who is well worth a look, a small midfielder 5ft 3in - Oztumer..
Would love to see him at Argyle. He makes up for his lack of height with his skill, technical ability and awareness. His footballing brain is Prem/Champ standard.

Yep, quality prospect.

A few of his goals here:

Lovely curling right foot finish into the top corner - http://www.pitchero.com/clubs/dulwichha ... cial%253D2

Nice left foot finish as he pings it in the bottom corner - http://www.pitchero.com/clubs/dulwichha ... 35265.html

Good composure as he slips it left footed under the GK - http://www.pitchero.com/clubs/dulwichha ... 36519.html

So many other good players in non-league i haven't yet mentioned:

Jamie White, 22 year old, Striker, Salisbury City. Former 06/07 Southampton Academy Player of the Year and Under 18's top goalscorer. During the 11/12 season he scored 51 goals in just 32 league games for Winchester City in the Wessex League. He also scored a further 8 goals in cup competitions. Spent time on trial at Bournemouth during the 11/12 season. White's potential was first recognised by the Saints Academy as an eight year old, although it wasn't until he turned 15 that he began to play regularly for the clubs youth setup after a brief spell at Chelsea. He is a quick striker with good movement, good first touch and clinical finishing ability with either foot. Has scored 18 goals so far during 12/13.

Karl Ashton, 24 year old, striker, Stafford Rangers. Former Derby County youth team player and former England U17 and U18 International. Targetman striker with two good feet, good finishing ability and an aerial threat.

Alex Read, striker, Brentwood Town. Was named 11/12 Tilbury FC Managers Player of the Year after finishing top scorer with 25 goals. So far during the 12/13 season he has scored 29 goals and has attracted the attention of Dag & Red and Leyton Orient.

Rhys Turner, 18 year old, right winger/striker, Lancaster City. Came through the successful Myerscough College football programme which has helped produce the likes of Anthony Pilkington (Norwich City). Recently called into the England Schoolboys Under 18 squad for the Centenary Shield tournament. Quick, direct, skillfull with a real eye for goal. Outstanding potential.

Lee Potts, 22 year old, left back or left midfield, Grantham Town. Primarily an attacking left back who likes to overlap with good technique, passing and tackling ability. Potts helped Grantham win the 11/12 Northern Premier League Division One South title and his form during the season earned him a trial in April 2012 at Premier League QPR. He is said to have played well and scored a goal during his 85 minutes on the pitch against a strong Tottenham Hotspur side. Potts is fast approaching 150 appearances for the club during his 3 seasons - during the 10/11 season made 48 appearances and scored 8 goals. During 11/12 Potts was a regular for Grantham making 50 appearances and chipped in with 7 goals. He was also named in the Northern Premier League Division One South Team of the Year for his impressive performances. This is what his manager Jimmy Albans said after the QPR trial: “Pottsy trained with QPR on Monday and played for the reserves on Tuesday.” Albans said. “He played 85 minutes as a left midfielder against a strong Spurs side watched by Harry Redknapp and got himself a goal as well.” His Grantham chairman Steve Boam also had this to say: “He has earned the contract we gave him at the club.” Said Mr Boam. “He is contracted to the club until the end of next season, but we are expecting QPR to be in touch with us and we will see where it goes from there.”

Tony Stokes, 26 year old, central midfield/striker, Concord Rangers. Former West Ham youth and reserve team captain who also played 30 times for Hungarian side Ujpest during the 09/10 season as he helped them qualify for the Europa League. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony_Stokes

Tom Pett, 21 year old, right/left winger, Wealdstone. Scored 14 goals in 44 games during 10/11 for Potters Bar Town which resulted in a 11/12 pre season trial at Brighton, where he scored in a development squad game against Watford in August 2011. After his exploits during the 10/11 season he was awarded Managers Player Of The Year, Supporters Player Of The Year and Players Player Of The Year. During 11/12 Pett scored 11 goals in 25 games in the Ryman League Division One North before a move to Ryman Premier side Wealdstone where he is already extremely highly rated. Nice goal - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b4fQWec2FDc

Mole I watch Stafford rangers on a regular basis Karl Ashton is nowhere near good enough for argyle. Don't let stats decieve you on Lot of these players. They do have two players who I would give a trial though Ryan brown a left back formally at vale played a full season as first choice vale left back. And a lad called fabrice kassiama who can play out wide or up top very yala bolasie like, in fact I had been toying with the idea of writing to JS regarding him.

To give people an idea of the standard Jermaine Johnson who we had on trial during marriner days is a stand out player along with Sean kinsella.

Daniel Carr played for Liverpool under 21s today in their 3-3 draw against West Ham.
Played for about an hour and got subbed. He had no real impact on the game, barely touched the ball to be honest. A big step up in class to be fair.

All about opinions. He played 60mins and for the first 30mins he didn't look out of place at all - in the opening minute he got in behind the defence and whipped over a dangerous cross, he was always lively making runs along the front line and looking to make runs in behind the defence, came short a couple of times and laid the ball off well. He needs to work on his heading and improve his fitness because he faded a bit, but overall he did ok, not outstanding, but is well worth keeping an eye on IMHO...

Just to add a bit more, Carr played 60 minutes of a Ryman League South game on the Saturday too - on a heavy pitch.

I'd say he did well to play for 60 minutes last night, given his age/experience/fitness.

He probably missed Erhun Oztumer's telepathic through balls to him. That's where he's at his best. ;-)

Mole, how much do you know about Aaron Rodriguez who plays for Gillingham Town? Exeter have shown interest in him. Only 17 but a decent striker with a good goal record and destined to play league football

Arsenal now after Carr...

Hello Mole,

An interesting read there.
Where do you get your info from?

I have watched Danny Carr many times and although he is a bit raw at times, he certainly has some excellent attributes. He reminds me of a Lukaku type player. Puts himself about well for his young years, and is a half decent finisher. Won't be long until he's in the league somewhere.

The best player at the club though is a 21 year old 5ft 4in midfielder/playmaker called Erhun Oztumer.
He's an attacking midfielder player who has scored approx 20 goals in as many games this season, along with countless assists (including many for Carr).
Strong on the ball, rarely wastes it, sees 'through balls' so naturally, pace and awareness way above Ryman League Level.

I know many clubs would be put off with his height, but hes that good, that you forget his lack of inches.

I'd like to see Argyle take a chance on these two.

I'm a big fan of the non-league game and watch a lot of football.

You're spot on regarding Otzumer, a really classy player and another with the ability to step up. Paul McCallum (West Ham), Quade Taylor (Crystal Palace) and Michael Chambers (Crystal Palace) have all recently left Dulwich for bigger things and, like you say, won't be long until the likes of Carr and Otzumer are in the League.

Oztumer now linked with a £500k move to Palace.

.....what happened to Carr?

 

[Emeraldinho]

Broke down in training. :coat:

 

[Quinny]

So Carr was signed by 'Uddersfield, didn't shine, got released and signed this season for Cambridge United. 5 games played, 0 goals scored.
