Profile of The Week

Charlie Stirland

Professional Experience

""Does he fit into the squads current system/where do they fit? Stirland would suit technically disciplined, semi-pro to pro clubs in Europe or England that prioritise development, that value structured, no-nonsense defending & need mentally mature, consistent centre-backs He has the profile to thrive, especially in systems that reward intelligence and composure over just physical attributes. Do they show potential/can the excel? If he continues to perform like this, gets consistent game time, and adds more ball-playing confidence to his game, he could comfortably grow into a strong semi-pro or even full-time professional centre back. Are they of club and league standard/do they have exposure at this level? Based on this game alone at National League North League and club standard he's not just capable of surviving at this level but showing signs of thriving at this standard and excelling given more minutes and game time"". - Chris Barker Scout & Dan Russel of Oldham / BallerXScout
