'At Least 3' after all the debate about what 'a couple' means, surely people realise that means a minimum of 3 through the door.2

How do you sign someone and know they're not going to be injured? - As said, would probably say Aneke has been a dud as apart from his Stoke goal hasnt really shown muchcafcfan1990 said:
I don’t mean to critcise Bows and Gallen. With the summer budget overall they have done a decent job and their options were severely limited. But I’m not having that Ledley has been the only dud. In fact I don’t even count him as a dud because he’s sitting there and for whatever reason Bows isn’t picking him. Hemed, Kayal, Aneke and Oztumer have all been duds so far.ForeverAddickted said:
They cant account for players being injured though can they?cafcfan1990 said:
Kayal for me showed glimpses of being an good player for us this season but couldnt stay fit
Same with Aneke effectively
As @RedChaser says, only dud really has been Joe Ledley and that was out of desperation
Oztumer though has shown his quality against Nottingham Forest and Sheffield Wednesday (just picking two games at random)We are signing players that are injured! How many times over the last few years have we gambled on a crock. I’m not blaming Bows but he has made the decision to sign a quality player with an injury risk of a less talented player. I have sympathy because he shouldn’t have to continually make those calls. Either way Kayal and Hemed have 100% been duds, although hindsight is a wonderful thing.0 -
Wasn't Kayal injured when he signed though or was he just unfit? On paper was a great signing so find it hard to blame Bowyer/Gallen for that, just a shame it hasn't worked out.ForeverAddickted said:

I think you could make a compelling case that Purrington has been our worst signing this year.10

God I hope not. Last time I saw him in action he missed an open goal from about 2 yards out.CH4RLTON said:Leon Clarke0 -
Nowhere near. Started the season well, admittedly has been poor recently but nowhere near our worst signing.FishCostaFortune said:I think you could make a compelling case that Purrington has been our worst signing this year.7 -

We basically have one striker and no midfielders outside of Gallagher and Pratley. Think we need to get 8 in as we can’t rely on anyone ever getting fit. When Charlton players get injured they need 4 months to be eased back into the team4
-
The only reason I say this is that we just have not seen enough of the other signings mentioned to really judge how good or bad they are, where as Ben has played pretty consistently.cafcfan1990 said:

When two blokes who are not natural left backs come in and play in your position better than you, I find that really worrying.1 -
Exactly, at least Purrington has playedwmcf123 said:

We defended pretty comfortably but for one Solly error and 3-4 from Sarr which Lockyer/Pearce had to cover0 -
The problem with Purrington is that he seems to think he is a right back and is found in that position more often than his own one.0
-
Someone like Emile Smith Rowe at Arsenal. Kid, midfielder, some previous experience, club who we have a relationship with. Pure guess work from me3

Keinan Davis, Aston Villa
Just thinking beyond the obvious ones.1 -

Yeah very fair points. He started the season well so still think it’s slightly harsh. Overall been ok, if he carries on like he has recently I will certainly agree.FishCostaFortune said:

Problem with Purrington is the same as Solly
Both are playing Wing-Back because we dont have enough Midfielders to play anything else
Neither can play that role yet at least with Solly he can be swapped with Matthews

Very short memories RE Purrington, he was Mr 7/10 not so long ago, and getting forward getting crosses in and notching the odd goal, his form has dipped with the injuries along with his confidence.19

No Murray in Brighton team today0

It's Murray.
Richard Murray that is, it's the only way he can stay involved with the club after the takeover.17 -
If we name every player to Cawley we might get it.3

I don't think it is short memories. Ben was a very consistent player in League One, but I don't think has made the transition into the Championship very well.BR7_addick said:Very short memories RE Purrington, he was Mr 7/10 not so long ago, and getting forward getting crosses in and notching the odd goal, his form has dipped with the injuries along with his confidence.
