    Bielik can play CB and a DM role. If he is a loan, Arsenal will expect us to play him regularly, providing no more injuries at the back, who will he replace Bauer or Pearce? If he plays DM, then it is Aribo or Pratley. The trouble with loans is that you are expected to play them all the time and that means one of our players gets pushed out, unless they are happy to be on the bench, but I doubt it. We have to strengthen the squad, but need to start with the best 11. He could be cover for Page and Solly

    Three at the back with Bauer and Pearce. Sarr gets dropped.
    ....or Sarr place DM.
    Ahead of Pratley or Aribo? No way
    Sarr up front then?
    Ahead of Recco, Lyle or Karlan? No way

    No, in 3-5-2.

    Ahead of Tony Keohane? OK fair enough

    I don't think they'd expect an unknown and unwanted defender to start every week, it's not as if he's their star youngster

    He'll plenty of match time, whether at the back or to stiffen the midfield, I can imagine him playing alongside Pratley against the better sides away from home for example

    I’m told we had a player ready to sign on the dotted line last week until Roly put paid to that. He wanted to come, his agent had set everything up but Roland wanted to focus on another position.

    I imagine it makes things difficult for the management team!

    Really struggling to believe he has any interest in Charlton in general let alone the playing side.
    Trust me. He refused this signing because he wanted a goalkeeper first.
    By the time that was done our target went elsewhere.

    Are you saying that RD is taking that much interest that he knows about Dillon Phillips, his lack of first team experience & that we need more cover there ??

    I can only assume updates on our squad (or lack of it) comes from LB & so he probably suggested the urgency for a gk first & foremost. More likely the budget at that time meant just one player coming in - LB really wanted a gk & so that's what he got.
    RD will still have Driesden or similar in his ear about something like this and take their advice over a caretaker English manager because RD is, as proved too many times now, a complete idiot when it comes to all things Charlton.
  • Naby will be dropped. But in three years he’ll be playing for PSG ;-)

    Steve Gallen is in charge of recruitment
  • Seen Belik(if spelt correctly) in a couple of Carabao cup games for Arsenal and looked solid, so will definitely do a job. Think my DM than CB but could be a useful addition, anyone will at this rate lol
  • As dear grandpapa used to say... "we'll sign any old shit"
  • He'll be a good signing for us IMO.

    Hoping the extra additions they keep banging on about are not a spin story
  • Apparently another one close as well. Fell through last week but the player wants to join us and its just down to him sorting it out with his club.
  • Welcome Krystian.

    Gooner at work reckons he will do ok for us, at least he has heard of him..

    Does this mean we will have 7 subs?
  • shows how excited everyone is. Announced twenty minutes ago and only three comment and he hasn't even got his own thread.

    Where did you hear this?
  • Good signing. Another piece of the jigsaw filled.

    LB and CM next, or are we relying on Bielik to be cover for both CB and CM?
  • Spent the majority of last season sidelined with injury. I'm sure he'll get on well with the rest of the lads in the treatment room.
  • edited August 2018
    We'll be able to field a full bench in no time
  • if we've been after him for a few weeks, i wonder if Bowyer was originally told no by RD. But then once JFC got injured, then RD gave in?
  • Also close to another signing and hopefully know more today, so could potentially go through tomorrow..?
