Another thread I couldn't see before. After a disappointing loan spell at Luton last season he joined Exeter this summer. Scored his first goal for Exeter yesterday in a 2-0 win vs Sutton, rounding the keeper after a decent break away which looks likes he started after dispossessing the defender. He also played a significant part in their first goal showing a burst of pace and good strength before having his shot turned in by a defender, which was given as an own goal. |

By all accounts he is getting good reviews down there, even if he's not scoring many. |

Of all the ex-players, Nombe is probably the one I look for first after the MK and Sunderland scorers. Him and perhaps Aneke. I wonder what might have been if he'd managed to cling on while Martin was binning him off, a la Boateng. |

I'm pleased for him. He seems like a player who suffered from the "not liked by Russell" thing like a few others. He'd have been an asset here but I don't think he's been missed but doesn't mean Im not happy to see him do well |

A bit like Alby above, I am really pleased he's doing well. I think ultimately his ceiling will be League One and I said that at the time he left for Luton, but hope he proves me wrong. |

Suffered another hamstring injury on Saturday, the second since December. Almost certainly means his season is over, hopefully not his career. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/60735591 |

I'm hoping it's still the joys of a developing body with Nombe, but I fear it's not. He's a very powerful athlete and no doubt this puts a lot of strain on his body. Hopefully it passes, but he's most likely going to need to adapt his body and/or his game to carve out a decent career in the EFL. |

For a striker reliant on pace this could be really damaging in the long term. |

Came off the bench yesterday, and scored pretty much instantly to send Exeter to the top of the table! |
