CONFIRMED Djibril Soumaré signs on Season Long Loan (obligation to buy)

[ben1987]

Alex Matos in the CDM role for me. Our own, good pedigree and has the attributes to excel in that position.

Love Sydie Peck and his passion but he's not a CDM destroyer that we need. He's a ball carrying, box to box forward thinking player

I’m not exactly sure what type of player Peck is.

He’s not an out and out defensive midfielder but he’s really not a forward thinking player either because his first instinct when the ball is played into him is to spin backwards. Compared statistically to Arblaster his forward going contributions are miles off.

He’s young, developing and has a lovely touch but I think he needs to work out his identity as a player and also work on dictating a game. He’s certainly got the ability but I think he slows us down in transition quite often. He also needs to learn some composure in front of goal as he snatches at eveything where he’s got a pretty cool head everywhere else over the pitch.

He worked well in a two with a beast like Souza, he’s been chucked under the bus a bit this season but he’s also ran himself into trouble a fair few times

He'd do well to watch some Michael Carrick footage, potentially a player of a similar mould.

Even better for the lad if Carrick becomes his manager in a few weeks time

When is he due back mate?

Club says another 3 months minimum ...

When?

Sellés very definitively didn't give a date for Arblaster's return in yesterday's press conference. Christmas was brought up by Andy Giddings as he probed away.

That's were I must have heard /read it then...,just trying to help a fellow blade

Nah Wilder comes across as a bite your ear off, thumb in your eye sort of guy...

Hmmm I dunno, I reckon he'd more start it all then slink into the background watching it all unfurl with a beer in hand.

Last season his role seemed to be to get the ball and get it forward, whether that be carrying it or passing and move.

I think he's maybe got a bit ahead of himself, probably misses the Vini partnership too. Having Vini there as support must have given him a huge confidence boost. Definitely has potential if he can keep his feet on the ground and develop.

Mmm m..mmmmmm

A month maybe six weeks tops

Fucking hell. Poor bloke, hope he comes back stronger for it. He comes across as a determined bloke to me so don't think there's any worries there, just a case of getting him fully fit

Ok then, a crow with a sub machine gun, or a tiger with an axe?

Crow, definitely.

Agree entirely. Air superiority, init.

I'm not sure how good a crow's feet are operating a powerful firearm, but I'd be very worried about the tiger putting the axe down, looking at you and licking his lips.

Fair.

Though the arse of a crow, as we know, is a powerful weapon in itself.

Good point.

One of us could distract the tiger, while the crow flies to shit on Hillsborough.
