Cracking goal and great performance by the sound of it What a great talent he is, better prospect than Dave Edwards IMHO. Playing for the under 21's is going to alert bigger clubs (that's what happened with Edwards), we need to extend his contract asap, whatever we should receive a substantial fee WHEN he leaves (sell on clause please)

I dont mean to be negative but Tom hasnt really done that much for us yet.. He had a great debut scoring that worldy goal and yes hes shown his potential every now and then but consistantly he hasnt been that good..
Now dont get me wrong im not saying he's no good at all and like ive previously said on this thread i think he will become a real good player, but he's nowhere near yet, firsly he isnt even in our first team and i would argue that he is our 4th choice striker.
I Would suggest that before he moves on he has to nail down a first team spot with us, and i really hope he does, the prospect of him and big marv up front in exiting, but Gornell doesnt deserve to loose his place at the moment.. I just hope Tom doesnt loose patiance and move too soon for his own good!

But that is exactly the reason to get him signed up now - not later when he has bigger clubs really after him rather than just watching.
Yes, it's a gamble that he will continue to improve, but sometimes with players like this you should take that gamble or risk losing out big time.

I agree, we should definately make a big effort to give him a contact. Just saying we shouldnt over-hype him too much just yet, he looks a good prospect but hasnt done that much for Shrewsbury Town just yet. And we should wait until he is in the team performing well week in week out before we get to exited.

Can't see him or Taylor being Shrewsbury players at the start of the 2013/14 season unless we are in the Championship. Would be great if they helped get us there but i'd be quite happy to have cashed in on them (as long as we get decent fees) and see the club being a side looking for a play off place in League 1.
