We need a winger in January

With Marveux out for up to four months, I'm starting to think we need to look for another winger for our squad. Obertan is just coming back from injury, but if him or Jonas get injured, we're in trouble. Hate to imagine if both were out. Sammy is coming through nicely but not convinced that he is ready. Ben Arfa shouldn't play out wide because his defending skills are sketchy and we rely on the hard work of our wide men.

 

Thoughts?

 

Hoillet could be a shout, also Barnetta?

We seem to be linked with Barnetta a lot but nowt ever happens, he'll never play for us

 

Hoilett would be a great signing, tbh Im now starting to expect that we'll sign someone Ive never heard of from Ligue 1

 

as Tecato says though, more pressing concerns in Jan, Hoilett for nowt in summer would be perfect

We desperately need to sign Luis Advincula from Sporting Cristal. He's 21 from Peru and can play right-wing, right-back or behind the striker. Pace to burn. He's Peruvian. I only mention this because we had great success with a previous young player from Peru Nobby Solano. He will be good friends with Colo and Jonas because they are from South America. He bears passing resemblance to Usain Bolt. With him in the squad we could solidify a top 7 place and have a squad equipped for Europe. Without him the season is lost.

Nee chance of signing a winger in Jan. The best we can hope for is a centre forward who could play on the wing if needed. I think our most pressing need is for a CB, given Perch seems to be first reserve.

Cant make up my mind whether he looks shit or class :lol:

 

 

 

When I saw the bit of 'skill' at 2.24, I put my foot through the monitor and sent KSA the bill. Peruvian guano tbh.

 

When I saw that I just turned it off. Just what we need, another player with no end-product. Poor mans Routledge.

I knew you wouldn't have due to your epilepsy and the strobe lighting effects kicking in at 0.51. Youtube scouting due diligence requires you watch at least 2 minutes footage though as it's difficult to assess Prem suitability otherwise.

As soon as I saw him touch the ball I knew he is destined to be a world-class player. Didn't need to watch beyond that. We could loan HBA out to Doncaster and bring him in to fill the void while HBA gains experience/fitness to be able to contribute to our squad.

I am waiting for Alam Smith to turn up at Doncaster

I think you can trace the decline of English football by the quality of the wingers in each era. Today we have the impotent show-ponies who widdle their feet about aimlessly and rarely contribute. Where are the likes of Ruel Fox now? Who could you look at in the PL and honestly say, "yes, he is as good as Ruel Fox was,"? Nobody. Goes down to grass roots imo.

Raoul Fox signed for a club which was competing with the top clubs in the Premiership. You can just as easily flip the question and ask how are we sposed to attract the likes of Raoul Fox now?

KSA got it right, and you still got it wrong. Twice. Have you been drinking ? :icon_lol: :icon_lol:

 

Maybe Fish will come along and pick you up on your spelling, you utter thick moron.
