I suspect that the club see Dunk as a step up to replace Upson and have signed Hughes for experienced cover. It also looks as if Maximenko will be pushed on this season in a CB role. I am pretty happy with that if that is the case. No matter what people think about Greer and yes he is prone to...
Two of the goals scored after 6 subs being replaced by under 18 players taken to make up numbers for DS players taken in the first team squad.
Where did it say that it was an U 21 University squad. Seagulls website says Japan under 21s. Just asking not trying to make excuses for loss
If Crofts is fit for the start of the season then I don't see why we need to spend money on another midfielder. The money would be better added to money spent on a quality striker especially if Ulloa goes which is likely. In my opinion we have enough quality in midfield and Crofts if on top of...
This is the rub. Is the Manager already having problems, being told that signings are likely and then they don't appear due to one reason or another. Surely Burke has had time to identify some decent signings in the last three months, if not what is he doing. My worry is that we are identifying...
Probably two if we are lucky. What happened to that George Cole on trial from Chelsea with the view of taking him to Spain. Surprised he did not turn out against Lewes
Five for me Goalkeeper, Centre Back, Left Back and Centre Forward, plus a 3 month loan for a midfielder to cover Crofts and Stephens until fit. Then see how we are in January window and if we are in contention, we dont f**k about,get some class in quick rather than wait for the dregs at the end...
Your right Mark. Think with the new training ground and all players together and Sami being an ex CB. They will only get better. I think we are pretty well served at centre of defence for the future. Sami says he wants another centre half so I would expect a senior player coming in. We would...
As much as I like Casper and he has been loyal to the club. If we sign a new keeper where does that leave Walton who surely must be No 2 in order to keep him.
Sterling was brilliant in the first game and dreadful in the second, that's what happens when you are young at any level. Lampard can't be any worse than Gerrard. Would like to have seen Lambert up front. I know he is not the future, but as he was taken in the squad and we have not won a game we...
Couldn't understand why most of the dead ball situations ended up with Gerrard taking them. His delivery was absolute crap and we missed a Captain's performance in both games. All the Liverpool players went missing in the second game against Uraguay especially the midfield of Henderson, Gerrard...
Having watched ex Arsenal centre back Dallison play a few times in the DS, I think if he worked with Hyppia, one of the best center backs around in the last ten years, then we could have another very good player come thru. I have a lot of faith in Dunk too and he will learn from the new boss...
