What does everyone think? Could Nti ever be good enough to play Premier League football?

Myself, I think he could certainly play in/around the league 1 level if he could keep up his consistency, Premier League is perhaps a stretch too far as he's 23 and not many years left to develop. There's no doubt in my mind that he has some great talent, but will sometimes look completely out of a match. 

Geddes was also tipped in another article back in may: www.mirror.co.uk/sport/row-zed/5-non-league-strikers-who-could-5739681
Aaron Williams who used to play for us was tipped in another article too, but I cannot remember where.

Safe to say people seem to like our young lads.

I thought he did OK yesterday. He provided a lot of support to our full backs when Sheffield threatened and battled hard up front. He created our best opportunity from nothing through sheer persistence and determination. I thought there was a chance for him to play in Minihan in the first half - but its an easy game from the stands.

Sometimes his control lets him down but that is something that he can work on. Personally I think his game has improved with the arrival of Lee Hughes who has given a focus to the attack, with Nti providing the crosses from the right.

No, is the honest answer. To play at that level, you've got to be very good at all facets of the game. He could probably play regularly at League 2 level in my opinion. I like Nti's attitude as he is a great trier, and is very fit, but he has plenty to learn. He can be very inconsistent, is not a natural finisher, and isn't aware enough regarding taking the right option. He is also far too reactive to a pass, as opposed to being more proactive in making the run and showing for the pass. I much prefer him facing up to the defence and running at them, as opposed to coming short with back to goal as he always turns the same way ( to his left ). Having said that, at our level, at times he can be unplayable. I think that the more he plays with Hughes can only benefit him and he will become a better player , as he will learn so much from the types of runs that Hughes makes and their timing, plus Hughes awareness of what's happening around him. He's still only a young lad, and can add variety and better control to his game to go with his always positive attitude.

I'm afraid it's a "no" from me too. Much as I like the lad his first touch just isn't good enough and he's always throwing himself on the floor looking for cheap free-kicks. However, that said he HAS had some really good games for us this season: I particularly remember him tormenting defenders in the game against Lowestoft.
