He's worked hard for that. A testament that attitude over ability will see you further in your career.

Well done Cam.

So basically you are saying you think he is not very good but works hard. Think that is a bit unfair he has shown plenty of ability, a good turn of pace, along with determination to do well and not let mistakes affect his play.

No. You've misunderstood.

You can have all the ability in the world but if you don't work hard or have the right attitude you wont make it.

Look how many loans the guy has gone through to get to here. Can add a bad recent injury to that as well.

I think he is a good player, solid and fully deserves his new deal.

 

[Lew-T]

Good news, very pleased for him.

[Engvall’s Splinter]

Pleased for the lad. Have been impressed with him and his versatility. Strikes a lovely cross also. Love a ball in with a bit of pace on it. 

[JoeAman08]

I feel like we have picked up a majority of our points when Cam has started. I could be wrong though. When I think of us and our best performances think Cam has been involved in almost all of them that I can think of

You been reading Rob @Olé’s tweets!!!

I track points whilst they’re on the pitch, and Cam is 3rd (+0.54 pts per game), behind Semenyo +0.96 ppg and Scott +0.63 ppg.

In terms of pure points, he is 3rd again (+7 pts), behind Chris Martin +10 and Alex Scott +8

 

For info, I track the game state when they enter the pitch and when they leave it and equate that into league points.  All starters are effectively drawing 0-0, and if we are winning when they leave the pitch, they get 2 points (3 points for the win, minus 1 point for the draw they started with), etc, etc.

 

So Semenyo’s +0.96 ppg, equates to 1.96 ppg so he’s worth almost 2 ppg, top-2 form.

Of those that’ve played a decent amount of minutes, Jay Dasilva -0.46 ppg is the worst!

Have been told that Pring has agreed new 3 year deal with City which effectively triples his wages. He’s deffo earned it with so many loan spells and starting the season so well

Been looking really good this season, epitomised by the second half against Millwall where he was rock solid in the back 3. Great news

So too (in my view), has Vyner.

Didn't realise they were the same age.

Haven’t seen his posts honestly! I want to say I have seen all our points live this year and remember him playing on most of the good days.

Sorry but it is the way you wrote that makes it seem that way, attitude over ability as apposed to attitude with / and / alongside ability. But good we think the same.

[The Wild Bunch]

Really impressed with Pring this season.  New contract is well deserved.

[Riaz]

In the video of him signing a new deal, it looks like Danny Coles in a suit? Is he back at the club?

Yes, it is Danny Coles - he's an agent now so presumably Cameron Pring is one of the players he represents.

[Lanterne Rouge]

Great news, onwards and upwards young man.

You're doing God's work Fevs. God's work.

My man of the match today. Was immense. Handled just about everything that came his way.

[RedM]

A very impressive and mature performance from him today.

[MrRedRobin]

Recently Pring has looked incredible. His tackling is top quality. Not long before he will be playing in the premier league (Hopefully with us)

[chinapig]

Brian Tinnion reckoned Pring was ready for the first team squad last season. Naturally he was ignored.

[steviestevieneville]

Really needs a run in the team now. Either at left side centre half in a three or left back when in a back four. Obviously got things to work as all players do but he has genuine quality & likes defending .  Not only that but he plays like his life depends on it. We as fans love players like him & he’s a good age now to kick on . Cam

i know several clubs were interested in buying Cam during his loan spells but the club wouldn't sell so its great that he has taken his chance.

Are you saying that this is a positive from Mark Ashton????

I heard there was some tension between BT and LJ about several youngsters not getting a chance previously.  But I guess in LJ’s defence, it’s not BT’s job on the line if he doesn’t get results.

That doesn't surprise me. LJ talked about the pathway but Kelly aside there really wasn't one.

Nevertheless Cam was shipped out last season, though whether that was Holden's decision or Ashton's who knows?

[WECANDO]

Pring was superb today. Has such scorching pace and just glides past the opposition. I think there is more to come from him aswell.  Does he know how good he is? Whether he plays left of a back 3 or left wing back, he's here to stay. Exciting to watch. Would like him to have a shot on goal at the end of some of his mazy runs. Had one only today. Definately better than Joe Bryan.

Do you mean better today, or better when Bryan was here?

Better today definately. As for when Bryan was here? Memorys a bit shite but Bryan did used to get forward at pace. Think Pring has the edge for pace with both but he looks a better defender to me. Prings close control is better aswell. If we had more movement upfront who could drag the opposition out of the way Pring would go through those gaps. He's one I look forward to watching as is young Scott.

Joe was always better going forward than defending, because he was really a midfielder who had been shunted backwards on the pitch, whereas Cam is clearly a very good defender who comes forward well. If he could start scoring goals like Joe has done through his career that would be great.

Pring is physical when he goes past his man.  He’s strong, he uses his body and arms, his marker cannot lean into him to put him off balance.  It is something O’Dowda hasn’t got, there was an occasion when he could’ve used his left arm to stop his opponent getting a challenge in as he when down the right on his right foot from a corner.  Player tackled him and we got another corner.  Pring possibly gets brought down in the same situation.

Both Bryan and Pring are excellent going forward, although as has been mentioned, Pring appears to be much stronger and, of course, is clearly a far better defender.

At present, however, Bryan would appear to be the ‘better’ attacker by virtue of the number of shots he takes (took) and, by extension, the number of goals he scored.

Having said that, I suppose only time (and match experience) will show whether Pring develops the confidence to shoot more often and, hopefully, score.

Let us be completely honest here, Joe Bryan was a fantastic player for Bristol City and has performed in the Premiership for a Fulham team that have seriously splashed the cash over the past 20 years. To even be talking about Cameron Pring as better or similar in ability to Bryan tells us what an exciting prospect we have on our hands.

If only we could develop a right back in a similar mould.

Neither positive nor negative towards Mark Ashton.

I'm just glad Cam has been given a chance and seems to have grabbed it with both hands.

[The Bard]

Joe Bryan at LWB with Pring at LCB would work

[Real Mad Red]

Hopefully he will be playing in these customised beauties tomorrow and puts one in the back of Fulhams net - COYR
