Yep thought the same thing to looking at his appearances. They are no good injured regardless of how good they are 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 In an ideal world we could actually do with another striker, but I don't expect we'll sign anymore this transfer window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Traore is still here and at the end of the day, he's had one good game against Notts County. No big loss. De Laet > Hutton. Hutton is utter tripe. Did you not see him against Luton? Weaker at CB? In what world are Elphick and Chester worse than Lescott, Richards, Okore and Clark? Agree with the depth point, I think we could do with bringing in another CB on loan so we have Baker and someone other than Richards. Some would say Gana never showed his potential ability for us either. Hutton isn't my ideal choice for RB but I would have him in before De Laet and I think he is a better player overall than he is given credit for. Okore and Clark are premier league quality CB's and can get better. Elphick can get better as well but I think he is a level below right now. I like Chester in some ways but for a CB he lacks size and physical presence. I'd still like to see more of him but I'm pretty clear that Okore and Clark are the better centre backs with more potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marley the Bognor Villan Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 So, busy day tomorrow hopefully. My predictions: remove and replace Richards. Adama and maybe Ayew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure he looks too dynamic from this pic, but perhaps he is easily looking over the heads of these two at the ball at their feet, and going to hook his right leg around them both (the long way round), to make the tackle without even moving. Sign him up, can't wait for the chants.... It's an optical illusion, those two players on the left are actually lying down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know what world you're living in mate, you're judging De Laet after one game after a week with the squad... against Hutton who is one of the worst RB's the club have ever had. And Okore and Clark premier league quality... relegation quality... Delusional Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like him as well. He has heart which is an underrated quality in a player. He may not be the best going forward but if we had proper creative players ahead of him and a strong CB partnership there would be less pressure on him and I think we'd see a better player. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every time I've seen him play live on TV the commentator has urged him to have confidence and use his pace to run at people. He seems to slow his stride and dally on the ball rather than just using his raw speed to go past people. Having said that, I'd rather have him than Traore as we will at least see him and he's good for a handful of goals each season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In some ways Okore remains an enigma and who knows what a long injury free/ good run of form might have led to- Clark however is in my opinion accident prone and cannot be trusted for a long hard season and for us to get the money we have done for him, represents a great piece of business .
