Christophe Lepoint to sign ? (ed. Signed)
Comments

Perhaps he should have said former international.MrLargo said:Iain Liddle's headline on the CAFC website is "Charlton complete signing of Belgium international Christophe Lepoint" - we've seen his Wikipedia page Iain, bit generous with the term "international" methinks.
That is akin to calling to calling me a neurosurgeon because I once gave someone a couple of aspirins when they complained of having a headache.

I think i've seen it all now, not only were we going into the annals of footballing history , by setting the record for the most amount of games drawn in one season, we actually sign a player called 'Le Point' to help us achieve it!17

By who? He's valued at whatever we just paid for him, which I doubt is anywhere near £1m.colin1961 said:Valued at 1 mill

''Watt's Lepoint'' is the headline just waiting to happen. Maybe Roly just has a very odd sense of humour.

Perhaps we will get more coverage now in the press. With the players we are signing it must be like shooting fish in a barrel in the press room...1

Looks like I ate my words from yesterday. Want sure we'd get someone in. However I like this signing a lot. Genk fans seem disapointed to lose him, and his first comments included him saying he will fight for Charlton from the first moment. Love his mentality3

30 years old? Blimey, he looks older than me, and I'm 59!
Sorry Dave, does this have anything to do with Specsavers ?1 -

Good good. Centre mid and defense now sorted... now how about the problem area we've had all season. Not heard a whisper about a striker (other than fan generated bollocks). If we sign one I'll consider this a good effort at Jan window from Roly the meddler.0

I read above that from the Belgium support that Lepoint is not good enough for a top 5 Belgium team. From what I have seen from the Belgium league, the top teams would struggle to make the Championship top 6 due to the physical demands of the division. The top Belgium teams may make top 6 but would struggle to get promoted. That's part of the problem. There is an underestimation of the strength of the championship in comparison to the Jupiler League.
So Lepoint a fighting character but he is reported as being a bit slow and not that skillfull. This does not look like this is a transfer that will propel Charlton up the league.1 - Sponsored links:

Welcome Christopher, beautiful British name that.
What with the window signings of Neil, Mark, Tony and Miles, Roland is slowly but surely building a beautiful British squad. Really hope the rumours of Tel moving to Israel and King George to Romania aren't true.

No idea on the correct version Jessie, but I doubt many in South London will be writing ləpwɛ̃ or ləpɔɪntJessieAddick said:So how do we pronounce his surname? /ləpwɛ̃/ or /ləpɔɪnt/ ?

Well now we'll stop playing Solly in midfield, meaning we can use Gomez at CB. Signing a CM should mean we can therefore play 2 other players in their favoured positions.LargeAddick said:

I'm not sure how 'pure' the Belgian tribal bloodlines still are, but they have survived a vicious German invasion in 1914, another one in 1940 and earlier, centuries of Burgundian, Spanish and Hapsburg colonialism, and the Belgians are still alive and prospering very nicely thank you.skywalker said:

Christophe, judging by his name is a Walloon, a 'French' Belgian. According to the 'Flemish' Belgians, the French Belgians are not Belgians at all, merely foreign interlopers.1 -
Looks like a good signing and it's the experience we have been calling out for all be in not championship experience.
Welcome Christophe2
