Solly March

[Machiavelli]

I've not seen many players 'click' before your eyes as Solly did at home to Cardiff. Prior to the Cardiff game I thought his decision making had been indecisive, he didn't seem to want to take his man on, his shooting looked like Toblerone sponsored his boots. He didn't start that first half particularly well, but second half he took them apart. He was transformed in that game. Whatever happened from then on his shots were on target from everywhere, he was stripping fullbacks for fun. We saw a young man who may or may not make it suddenly look the real deal. His injury was the one we felt the most as we got into December.

March and Knocky in the midfield is mouth watering.

This. We're seriously underestimating on NSC just how good Solly March is. Even before that 'clicking', he was demonstrating so many different qualities -- especially pace, balance and skill -- and, for me, the only thing that was lacking was composure at vital moments (final pass, shooting, etc). For six or ten games, starting with Cardiff, he looked like the best player in the entire league. Bruno says he's the most skilful player in the squad, and we really ought to pay attention to such assessments.

Probably will need to send him out on loan to someone to get his fitness back up, won't be much space on our bench for him to manage that.

He was outstanding in this game , listen at around 4.05 , sooner he is fit and back , the better .

Reminds me of the woman announcer we had for a few games - every time she spoke I felt like I was in an airport!

A number of people living in Hailsham where his family live think this is to be correct so they probably have spoken with some of his family,.

Read earlier in the year that he is due back November / December.

Blimey did he lose his leg?

Move Lualua on, March is a much better player

Was!? Let's see how he returns, very nasty injury. Let's not put pressure on the lad. Also don't write off Lua Lua he was great with his partnership with Bong early season... Short memories and all that.

True, lualua had a bad injury himself and hasn't looked the same for me.

Agreed, he has looked far from his old self. Especially the Wednesday play off game, but teams do try and crowd him out. I always thought he was best off the bench, but I'm changing my mind as if teams wish to adapt that mentality then it offers other options on the pitch.

Think all our wide players have peaks, thought knockaert was amazing, went off the boil for a few games, then came back better.
Also Murphy, thought he was brilliant then lost his place (reportedly due to a niggly injury), but like LuaLua hasnt bounced back... Yet! Next season shampton!

That explains a lot... looking forward to having him back to his best...

A half season loan would need to be completed before the end of the Summer window (normally last day of August) and would end at the start of the January window. Or be completed by the end of the January window and run till the end of the season (in reality this is the end of June, hence why the likes of JFC, Ince and O'Grady weren't able to play in the play offs for us).

The Argus confirms today that on Tuesday Murphy had "a straightforward hernia op".

In the Argus today it is reported that March "is on course to return to action for the Seagulls during the pre-season programme." Further, "He is running again and is likely to play a part in some of the warm-up matches."

Just saw this myself. I will have a spring in my step this morning.
