why on EARTH we haven't signed a left midfielder yet. I mean, fair enough, Poyet seems to like using Dicker on the left as a third-sort-of-centre-mid and it's got us results of late, but still, it'd be nice to have LEFT-footed winger as an option, wouldn't it?

Even if it's just a loan signing, get someone in who offers us something differnt on the left, eh?

I'm sure Poyet is aware of the problem and is working on it.:facepalm:

You'd like to think so.

It's just I'd have thought it was the most pressing issue for the type of player we're looking at given Mcleod's our only option their and Poyet clearly doesnt rate him.

Just a little concerned is all. Don't really want to watch us for the rest of the season playing without even the option of a decent left winger.

No, I think if he was down with the kids he would have put like instead of yeah

Poyet has said Carole can do a job down the left and did so when they were both at Leeds. Maybe he thinks that is enough for the season, I doubt it though and he is still looking

how do you know he isn't trying? he might be trying to find the ideal player, rather than just signing any old left midfielder for the hell of it (who could be shit)

or maybe he just can't be BOTHERED

The left side is a problem, but we need a expeirenced centre back. But Gus hasn't noticed it, and I can't believe he aint because this is where the problem exists.

How do you know he hasnt noticed it?

How do you kno that he hasnt asked 20 defenders to sign for Brighton and they have all said no?

Come to think of it, How does Conboy know that Gus hasnt asked 20 left wingers to sign for us and they have all said no?

Unless someone from the club has come out and said that they have tried to sign player X, Y or Z how do we know anything about what transfer targets we have?

Agree with you we definately need someone, as McLeod cannot stay fit. The Dicker experiment isnt really working, and the only other optins are playing Cox, Livermore or Bennett there - which hasnt/wont work. Carole is the one that might, but he wont be good until the sun comes back out in March.

Andros Townsend would have been good, but he went to MK Dons.
Andy Robinson is available for loan
Poyet denied us being linked with that Monkhouse fella and then we signed Carole again.

I wonder who else is available?

I don't know whether he has tried to sign 20 left midfielders or not. I don't know whether he has been trying or not. That's why I was just WONDERING.

The point I was trying to make is that we need a left winger for the above reasons Mendoza and I have stated. Very rare you see a successful team that doesn't at least have the option of an out-and-out left winger. That's why I'm WONDERING why we haven't signed one yet. It could be for a number of reasons, I'm just starting to get the impression Poyet doesn't see it as a big issue, which I find a little worrying. Of course I could be entirely wrong, but I'm only WONDERING.

Sparks a bit of debate, dunnit? Needed something to discuss
