Nicolas

[Les Biehn]

Often mentioned but never explored, why does MM never pick him? Does anyone have a hypothesis, inside knowledge or idea as to why?

Who knows....

I've always been a fan of Nicolas and would have liked to see him involved. I get the impression McGhee likes taller players in the center with the two leightweights on the wings. Carole/Reid/Nicolas/Fruity for example would be a bit light weight.

 

[Les Biehn]

I think he would work in a midfield three like we played yesterday. Imagine a midfield of Reid - Nicolas - Hammond for next year.

Thats top draw, although charlie and chippy will be both given new deals me thinks so itll be a two or three made up of hammond, charlie or chippy....

 

[Les Biehn]

Nicolas will be gone and the two 33 year olds will get new deals. Oh well.

It seems even odder if you recall that Mcghee was begging for he money o sign Nicolas

Indeed, and it wasnt just us who were interested in him. He's gone from a very highly thought of player in the championship to a player that cant even get on our bench, baffling.

 

[Les Biehn]

I've seen moments when he looks like he could be our best centre midfielder but I just don't get MM's problem. Nicolas even came out in the press saying he was happy to fight for a place and will really try to get into the team.

 

[Yorkie]

I have watched Nicolas in the reserves and don't think he is any better than Hammond imo.

 

[dougdeep]

If he had looked good in training then I'm sure he would be in the team.

 

[Scotty Mac]

few times i have seen him this season he was been poor - would not be suprised to see him go

Expect Fraser to force his way in.

Or Wes Fogden. I agree Fraser is a great young player.

 

[Les Biehn]

I would like to see the trio I mentioned earlier with Fraser, Chamberlain and Mayo as back up.

Change the record, every web site I read is Yorkie saying
"I have watched Nicolas in the reserves and don't think he is good enough or not better than Hammond, Oatway or even Carpenter" Well I have seen Nicolas play in Chealsea Reserves and Chelsea's 1st team with great players and yes Yorkie, he is better than all our midfield. Looks like Mcghee has got a problem with him. Ask your connections.

So she's not allowed her opinion then?

 

[Basil Fawlty]

I like Nicholas, I think he should be given a chance in the middle of our midfield instead of chippy. Always give 110%, always looking for the simple ball. Never holding on to the ball for to long, loves to get stuck in.


I wonder why MM doesn't pick him?

 

[saafend_seagull]

Always looked ok to me. When does his contract expire?
