I don't think he'll go two up top unless we're a goal down with 20 mins to play.cabbles said:
What do we think then - maybe a front line ofSage said:I remember he was excellent for Shrewsbury, was very influential for them and one of the most trickiest and skilful players in the league.
This is a replacement for Holmes, and Mavididi will hopefully move more central as well.
Fosu/Marshall Mavididi KaiKai
Magennis
I was hoping this might be a signing to give us more chance of going 2 up top. KaiKai, Marshall & Fosu competing for the wing positions and Mavididi and Mag up front
Up at Oldham we won 3-4 without Magennis, but with KAG up top supported by Fosu and Clarke (and Holmes). It worked well that day. Problem was when we came under pressure we didn't have enough strength in midfield, and without Magennis looked weak defending set plays.0 -
They always said that Holmes' wages were available for a loan.shirty5 said:Good replacement until the end of the season to replace Holmes. Amazed that the manager has been allowed to bring anyone in even if it's only a loan.
Getting rid of the rat is number one than moaning that the fella comes from Palace.
Anyone remember a young lad from Greenwich that we signed on loan from Palace in 1992 who become a cult hero at the Valley a couple of years later.
Some people are two faced.1 -
Eh?JonPenderFan said:Another journeyman loan joins the club. Just what we needed.
Good luck to Richard Wiseman and Steve Clarke when they meet with Murray tomorrow. One of their questions should be how is it possible to replace Ricky Holmes with Sulley KaiKai, and still keep a straight face when talking about promotion?3 -

Fosu/Marshall ....Reeves......KaiKai
Mavididi
With Reeves as the playmaker and his being a out main creator i think he will get better for us, as i thought he struggles when he isnt involved and we would play through Holmes
Why not utilise a 4-4-2 or 3-4-3?
Plan B would be 4-4-2

Works in a 343 easily, and has the right mix of players too.
With hardly any strikers in the squad, I'd argue we are more suited to this than a 4420 -
notr sure if anyone has seen/mentioned this being reported in the Scottish sun
Hibernian could offload forward Anthony Stokes with Charlton Athletic and at least one Polish club keen on the 29-year-old.

Nonsense statements about the player ?Super_Eddie_Youds said:
I think you're confusing people arguing with your nonsense statements about a player, with the non existent people saying it's a sign of a healthy regime.JonPenderFan said:On paper then KaiKai has a better career record than Dodoo. But the bottom line is that Duchatelet has still sold our best creative player and Murray said only a % of that money would be used from Holmes' wages. So we have lost another highly effective player on a long term contract and brought in another loan.
The trajectory of the club and the short -termism is all wrong. Remember when Pardew embarked on his panic loan spree [ironically under Murray..] and how that ended up.
As Parkinson said to Pardew at the time [he told us later at a fan's gathering]
"You are signing too many loans"
A recipe for mediocrity.

Signing loans is a symptom, rather than the problem.
The lad is 24 & has knocked about at the likes of Cambridge & Stevenage.

Nonsense, he's younger than that, he's 22 and he played for them at 18 and 19 respectively.JonPenderFan said:

Also, Holmes at the same age was "knocking about" at Chelmsford and then Barnet4

Fairly sure we nearly signed Stokes about 5 years ago0

Options in attack from the bench:
Marshall <
Reeves >
Mavididi <
Magennis >
Fosu <
KAG>
That defence did well for the most part of the last cup game.
Obviously though the sooner Bauer and Sarr are back the better. As they'd take Lennon and Jackson's positions.

Not seen enough of Mavididi to know if he could play central in that formation, but if he could then yes, Fosu on the left and Mavididi in the middle0

He would help us out of this league, but I am sure Hibs would want a big fee for him.0 -

Although I've seen enough of Magennis to know that, on current form, he can't play central in that formation. :-)0 -

he has just been done for driving without a licence and is always out on the piss.
he is a massive twat.1 -
Anthony Stokes! Hahahaha. He's up there with Hayden Mullins in rumoured-to-be-joining stakes.
Wouldn't touch him with a barge pole incidentally - think he still demands big wages.0 - Sponsored links:

Same age as Fosu, who was knocking about at the 'likes of' accrington before us.

Kaikai career is similar to Lambert, Holt and Vardy at the age of 22. In fact being at a premier club he is ahead of that trio at the same age.JonPenderFan said:

Kaikai made 25 appearances for Cambridge United on loan. My apologies for stating that he also played for Stevenage, it was a much bigger club, Crawley Town.Stu_of_Kunming said:
