There were a few performances that were not good yesterday, Akin looked like he’d played there for us for years, hope we can get Matthews and another decent centre half in to play alongside him.
I personally thought he looked very very good. Good weight of pass with both feet (apart from one bad one). Decent in the air and positionally looked good too. Fair play to the scouts because he is a very good option by the looks of it
A little too much love for the up left-field pass and not turning into to his CB partner to keep the ball moving, but can't fault him as may have been a tactical reason. Looked assured, definitely a promising signing who should have no problem pocketing a few L1 strikers along the way.
Farke is actually bemoaning his lack of CB options now! Norwich sold Ben Godfrey, sent on loan both Timm Klose and Famewo and Zimmermann is injured. They signed Ben Gibson but I think that they only have him and Grant Hanley. This is what he said:
“We know we are a bit thin and in January we definitely need to do something because you need four proper centre back options with so many games. That is the only position that worries us a bit."

Hopefully, they'll go out and buy someone else. I'm loving Akin's work so far; hope he sees the season out.

The sensible thing though, if you need a CB and have one just a division below playing really well, is to recall him...If Lapslie was playing really well in L2, and we had a lot of injury problems in midfield, I dare say we'd recall him
The Gallagher situation was a bit different, as it was a financial recall, sending him to Swansea - a direct rival to us - because they could pay more of his wages. Much more of a kick in the teeth

Also didnt help the fact that we'd gone from paying Chelsea something to nothing, so thanks to ESI we effectively broke the terms of the loan agreement

I hadn't heard about ESI missing payments to Chelsea. Surprised it didnt leak at the time.

Bowyer mentioned it when we signed Levitt - We weren't missing payments to Chelsea, we just weren't paying Gallagher any wages, sorry could have worded my bit about Chelsea in the original comment a bit better
As a result they took him back as Swansea said they could pay the wages and more it seems

But wasn't that because we were NEVER paying his wages, rather than doing so for half a season and then stopping?

The way it sounded, we were able to pay the portion of his wages that we agreed with Chelsea, the embargo came in which for some reason stopped that from happening
Unless of course it meant that we weren't paying anything, Swansea came in with their offer yet we couldnt match it because of the embargo

He could not of trained with the team much so thought he fitted in very well.
And I'm going to make a prediction. Sadly, if they are able to, I can see Norwich recalling him in January.
We'll lose Famewo and no doubt have Levitt all season.

The last centre-back we signed from Norwich (I think) was Gary Doherty... what a contrast!
