Tins Posted July 24, 2010 Report Share Posted July 24, 2010 So far we have 2 signings, but are they the right ones?? We have Albert - a right winger, but we already have Sproule and JCR and we have signed Cisse - a defensive midfielder, but again already have Elliott and Skuse. Does anyone really know why we signed them? i know albert is a youngster and has scored some pre-season goals, but it is baffling me with these signings. People also say look at Coppells previous signings but the "gems" such as Doyle came from alot smaller clubs than Brenford and Reading. So is really signing a journeyman such as Stead a good signing as he is very unlikely to be a "gem" like Doyle. Thoughts please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveF Posted July 24, 2010 Report Share Posted July 24, 2010 We'll have to wait and see. I have no complaints so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dargla Posted July 24, 2010 Report Share Posted July 24, 2010 I am a little worried as the squad is looking thin, will have to wait and see what SC brings in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newarkred Posted July 24, 2010 Report Share Posted July 24, 2010 If Orr does leave and with McCombe left I do feel that we are short at the back. Ribs and Wilson injured and Jamie Mac not properly fit I do worry for the start of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terjon Posted July 24, 2010 Report Share Posted July 24, 2010 More than happy with the signings so far and would welcome a player like Stead - landlord of my local is a Blackburn st holder and he said that Stead was top class when he played there, very good player but needs the right manager, the opposite of Keane to get the best out of him. Albert looks like a good signing as well. Cisse ? Not sure where he will play but signs are at centre back as thats where Coppell played him at Reading apparently. Very good pedigree with good Premier League experience. Plenty of time to go and would hope to see more players coming in over the next few weeks. I don't expect us to be challenging anywhere near the top this season, but would hope for a realistic shot at it the next season. Blimey, how many more years have we got to consolidate, I EXPECT CITY IN THE TOP 6, otherwise pointless employing the guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bristolian76 Posted July 24, 2010 Report Share Posted July 24, 2010 Two good signings so far Cisse was clearly brought here to play in defence and Albert will be a good squad addition. There are two weeks left but some seem to be panicking when theres no need, and we are also judging players who havent even signed for us!! Sounds like a normal day on here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCAGFC Posted July 24, 2010 Report Share Posted July 24, 2010 Cisse is a good midfield player but a very poor centre half (not mobile/agile enough). Adamoh obviously has bags of potential but could be inconsistent at his age. What really worries me though is the depth of our squad, no RB, no 'proper' cover at LB, no dominant CBKs, no playmaker & our strike force is very poor without the injured Maynard & Haynes. A lot of work to do in 2 weeks............................... BCAGFC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Casual Connoisseur Posted July 24, 2010 Report Share Posted July 24, 2010 Coppell said a lot of deals would be done in the last 2 weeks of the transfer window, be patient and trust him and the chairman who employed him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
