Very highly rated at West ham. Great record at youth level and full international. West Brom probably a step too far last season but I'm sure we'll give him a chance to prove Carlos wrong.
Good luck to the lad.

Hopefully he has a similar impact to the Premier League loan we had after our last relegation to this division

Your on the ball & good spot, we have a manager with his ear pretty close to the ground where Northern Ireland is concerned......Lets hope he can fill his boots in League one, looks hungry.

Sounds promising, if confirmed. Much needed firepower.

Good luck to the lad. Not saying you're wrong but la serpiente didn't even give him a chance, was it 55 minutes he played? Edit: D'oh htafcdan beat me to it

Edit: D'oh htafcdan beat me to it I meant going to a playoff chasing championship club was probably a step too far at that stage of his development. He'd have been better joining someone like us or a league 1 team last season where he'd have likely got far more minutes.

A little bit about his history 👇

No professional goals, but Steven Chicken’s article is interesting:
A left-footed centre-forward who can play centrally or out wide, Marshall has a prolific goalscoring record at youth level: he scored 18 goals in 14 appearances in Premier League 2.
More encouraging, perhaps, is Marshall’s record in the EFL trophy against some of the sides Town will be playing in the upcoming campaign. Turning out for West Ham’s under-21s side, Marshall contributed three goals and two assists in four appearances, including a brace against Bristol Rovers.
Being a youngster, footage and stats are harder to come by than for senior players. Even so, from what is out there, Marshall looks to be a quick centre-forward who likes to play off the shoulder of defenders. He has a good touch and a constant awareness of where the bottom corners of the net are.
Quite a few of his goals come from him spotting narrow gaps to squeeze the ball into, or leaving the goalkeeper wrong-footed with his timing or placement.

Sounds promising. Will be hungry to do well no doubt after not getting a sniff at WBA.

Let’s be honest, it’s a punt, if we sign Taylor as well, fantastic as it’s great back up with a busy fixture list.
If we don’t sign another striker, it’s very desperate business.

Do we know how his record at West Ham compares to that of Mipo?
Not that it really matters - but Mipo wasn't up to much (/anything).

Another option is never a bad thing, however he ends up doing for us. I think between Healey, Koroma, Radulovic, Marshall, and Ward (listed in order of how effective I think they'll be), we have plenty enough squad depth for a 2 man frontline now. Best case scenario he's a revelation, worst case scenario it's one more player that needs to get injured before Harratt and Hudlin have to start.

Players from youth teams are always a gamble, but the 3 goals and 2 assists in 6 EFL Trophy appearances seems promising. Hopefully it'll translate to full time League 1 level. Fingers crossed.

His dad has tweeted that he's been trying to get tickets for tomorrow's game but they've been taken off sale. Suggests that he was registered in time and he will be in the squad...

Good luck to the lad, maybe not quite the prolific goalscorer we were expecting bit let's hope he takes us by storm in the same way Taylor did for Lincoln.

Think your expectations of a “ prolific goal scorer “are unrealistic, firstly finding one and secondly getting his club to sell, apart from May and possibly Taylor there doesn’t appear to be many about, unless you know differently.
