I’d think first and foremost we’ll try him at centre half. True - looking forward to the teams tomorrow night to find out the initial thought. Central midfielder now please!

bazka6 Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 This should have been the second announcement today which makes me think the first isn’t happening. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bazka6 Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Given Bullens own words about being heavy on defenders, surely some weight to the Fjortoft leaving story. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on Bullen wanting to play out from the back I'd think CB. As a natural RB hopefully he's decent on the ball and be similar to Ndaba ability wise. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be very surprised / shocked if an untried 19 year old walks in to the team at CH ahead of Fjortoft (if still here), Baird, McGinty (the captain) or Muirhead (vice captain). I'm not saying he shouldn't but just don't think he will. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree, Midfielder is the priority, a 19 year old defender from the Coventry youth team certainly isn't. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

City will expect this boy to get game time so either Houston will be used sparingly or Aero/Fjortoft are moving on . Interesting . So who’s it doing to be for DCM ? Liam Craig , Iain Wilson , Alex Gogic or a bolter from London again .?. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Us signing Iain Wilson would be even worse than Dunfermline signing slow Joe in terms of "why", "what are they thinking about". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems to be 1 in 1 out. I am sure there will be a post about Fjortoft in the coming days. This will be his replacement. We have replaced Salkeld, Bradley and Chalmers. I'm not sure they will change the budget based on this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's precisely my point, presumably Dunfermline brought in Chalmers to replace him and given he's only played about 20 games in 3 years wouldn't make me think he's the man to be pinning our hopes on, especially as Dunfermline have for all intents and purposes just punted him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like the priority always was getting players out and then trying to improve on it. It’s not as if we had a small squad we were just horrifically imbalanced and had players that were no where near good enough. Fjortoft and Afolabi out and hopefully one more in today with another loan sometime in February. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
