Willo South coast - west of Brighton. 21 Jan 18 6.45pm
Marriott is a quick and aggressive striker who presses defenders and never gives up.He is a grounded individual dedicated to his training and football.He doesn't sulk if he misses a chance, he doesn't let it bother him, he just keeps going. Right-footed and takes free kicks over a wall.Not sure what Peterborough paid for him but prior to that he was at Luton who signed him on a 'Free' from Ipswich. Edited by Willo (21 Jan 2018 6.46pm)

Originally posted by Petereagle No indication tho that Palace have made an offer or intend to Wetspam not interested but remains to be seen whether Palace actively make a bid [Link] I think Hodgson is looking for a fox in the box type striker so they might possibly take a gamble on this guy. It could be that Marriot plus Ulloa could give us enough texts cover,plus Benteke and Sako, to get us through the rest of the season....?

How many other premiership teams have a former academy player putting the ball in the net for them? Edited by spartakev2 (22 Jan 2018 5.32pm)

Edited by spartakev2 (22 Jan 2018 5.32pm) In defence of this, yes people have said Iwobi and Kane, and there are others (Lindegard for example). But, these are all well established Premier clubs with massive academies and resources. As Parrish has said last week on the FYP Podcast, we are trying to play catch up with these clubs. There are not many clubs who have been in the Premier as long or less than us who can afford the risk of bringing through Academy strikers. Bournemouth, Watford, and the three newly promoted clubs.

I have a friend in real life..... He supports Peterborough, and although suspiciously ginger he assures me he is not related to Adrian Durham. He says that Marriot was signed as their 4th choice striker. He is more in the McKail-Smith mode in that he harasses defenders but a better finisher. Quick, but not as quick as Jamie Vardy. His words not mine and a bit of a strange comparison. He said it would be a big step up but with decent service he will score. As people have said, only Kane has scored more in England. Posh would probably sell him for a reasonable amount and his wages aren't likely to be massive. Sounds worth a punt.
