HomerRed Posted September 6, 2016 Report Share Posted September 6, 2016 Another player who comes across very well in his interview on official site. Sounds confident about his fitness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just shows how far we have come since promotion from league 1. I was concerned that all the hard work we had put in to get him here would be over shadowed by another club saying we can offer you X number of pounds per week now you have proved you are fit enough to play Championship football so well done MA and LJ. If he is fit and ready to go I hope we can extend that 1 year deal. I am pleased but I expect they don't want to give him too long in case his knee flares up again and if he has a good year I would not be surprised if he gets a longer deal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For odd games here and there, or parts of games where it's needed...why not? The signings of Moore and Ekstrand, suddenly mean we have not just cover for Flint and Magnússon, but competition. Again, proof of building a squad of first team players, not 13-14 plus back-ups. We will get through injuries, suspensions, loss of form, etc, without necessarily fielding a weakened team. It means we can cope with Sat-Tues-Sat-Tues runs of fixtures much better than last season. It means we can field a strong team v Fulham and give ourselves a chance to progress (think Paterson is cup-tied though). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he has been training with us since 15th August so I'm sure he was keen to resurrect his career. If that was with us or someone else I'm sure eventually he would have found a relatively big club if not with us. So I think we did well in getting him in and would like to think a longer deal would be good for him and us. LJ is pleased I'm sure to have him on board.

Up The City! Posted September 6, 2016 Report Share Posted September 6, 2016 I'm beginning to get a headache trying to decide what our best starting 11 is now. We have so many options. I have never known us to have a squad like this before. There is genuine quality competition for every position. Our squad now reminds me of baking a cake. Separately the ingredients don't offer a lot, but put them all together by a master chef (LJ) and they make the most fantastic cake ever made.

Offside Posted September 6, 2016 Report Share Posted September 6, 2016 Looks like a good signing. We seem to be developing real strength in depth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bar BS3 Posted September 6, 2016 Report Share Posted September 6, 2016 He's been on trial for long enough, you can only assume that his injury nightmare has been fully tested and (for now at least) is behind him. Great signing if he's able to get fully fit again. If this works out well, then we've just bagged ourselves a top player at this level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only that, with his experience then he will teach our young players a lot. Do you see where I'm going with this.

Negan Posted September 7, 2016 Report Share Posted September 7, 2016 Welcome Joel! About time too! The Watford fans are full of praise and most are saying he should walk into our when fully fit! I expect we'll see him properly at Fulham away in the cup. Can't see LJ dropping Magnusson at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
