    Papa Souare a Senegalese LB is training with the club.
    Source?
    Just watched him play 
    cheers @AveryAddick excellent source.

    Was that in training or a game?
    Yes 1st Xl Vrs Reserves. Innis not involved and Gilbey training on his own.
    How many goals did the reserves win by?  :)

    Can you remember the line ups at all?  

    I guess Innis is being protected and Gilbey is getting fit.

    How did he look? 

    He’s got great pedigree but I’d be concerned about fitness/sharpness

    The key questions is is Souare good enough cover if Jacob Roddy is injured?
    Just heard that Souare is Keohane's nephew in law.

    He bought him a brand new bag for his birthday.

    I think if we did sign Souare he wouldn't go straight into the side - he'd probably make the bench and Gunter will keep the spot until a "proper" LB (be it Purrington, Souare or A.N Other) is fully fit and ready.

    Gunter's hardly covered himself in glory in the role but not made any real stand out mistakes either and even got an assist last time out.

    Playing a 4231, Levelle playing in a 4, Watson&Morgan, then front 4 of Stockley, DJ & Kirk, Lee playing as a 10,  Papa looked ok, certainly has decent pace and was playing up against DJ.
    Unlikely I know, but did Ronnie feature at all?

    It can’t have been very good if you couldn’t see the pitch 😉

    Average of 5 and a half games for the last four seasons, not playing at all since injuried from a car accident prevented him playing for a year. This'll be a stonking success I'm sure.
    Played 17 times for Troyes in the 19/20 season and also played a few games for Palace post crash.

    No, not the greatest record but that's probably why he's available on a free and why he's on trial.

    As someone said on here a few pages back Gallen is close friends with Freedman, the Palace director of football, so will have got the nod from him. 

    He'll also be good mates with Inniss from all their time together in the physio room.
    True but 0 competitive football for a year, only 21 games over 3 years prior to that. Even if his fitness back his sharpness won't be anywhere near. If we sign him I'll support him but it's the gamble of all gambles - really makes no sense to me.
    Zeki Fryers, Denver Hume and Brandon Mason on the other hand...
    At least he wont be over played & wouldn't need resting for mid weeks matches.

    Soares has been able to play at the highest level, just a question of whether the accident, it’s injuries caused, his motivation and mental well being are all aligned in the right place? Exactly what our management will be assessing if the rumours in here are correct.

    I think Troyes had two or three LBs (oh what we’d give for three LBs…) in their title winning side 2020/21, so no great surprise he got no games if even one of them was ahead of him in a very regularly winning side. Why change a winning formula?

    Sounds like we could be a good fit for him if he does well honestly. Adkins' reputation is built on his positivity and encouragement of players and his experience as a physio probably gives him some insight into the physical aspects of the injury too.

    Look decent and more important not running with a limp to the physio? 🤣

    A click bait site of available players .

    Not a psoition that we need but I understand that Kevin McDonald has had a kidney transplant , but he is a player I have always liked and had a connection with Nige from a loan spell with Scunthorpe .


    6 free-agents still available to Charlton Athletic if they wanted to further bolster their squad | Football League World

    A few of those players have been mentioned here previously, but I can't see us being interested in any of them now, unless we want a squad where half the players are midfielders!

    We kind of do.  Very likely 5 out of the 10 outfield players will be midfielders.

    Louis and Rick’s views of our transfer window.

    Good summaries, the main thing I’d disagree with is us being overmanned in some areas, given our injury problems in the last few years it’s great to have extra depth at CB, CM and on the wing. If we can find a decent left back on a free it’ll look more balanced. Don’t see a striker coming so we really need Davison or less likely Schwartz stepping up and contributing with goals.

    Still shocked Josh Sims hasn’t been picked up yet. I guess he’s hoping in a couple of weeks clubs struggling or trying to keep a strong start will be willing to pay out an extra few pounds a week.

    Thought somebody said he’s injured out for a while, so maybe clubs are holding fire on him?

    Good move for him, a 2 year contract is decent
