Doesn’t sound like Bowyers MO to me. He didn’t even press hard for a contract under the Belgian idiot. If there is truth in this then perhaps the dynamic between Lee and Matt might not be quite as positive as we first thought and hoped.Bedsaddick said:

MS wanting to sort his contract AFTER the window, perhaps this is the “strange thing” Bowyer was talking about when the takeover first emerged.Bedsaddick said:1 -
I hear what you say but the stats don't lie we have averaged 1.8 goals against per game since the beginning of October when all of our first choice midfielders were playing. That can't be allowed to continue much longer or else we'll be revisiting the likes of Accrington and Rochdale next season. With a bit more quality at the back and a regular pairing of Lockyer and A N Other it'll give us the best fighting chance of survival along with another striker for sure even if Taylor stays and midfielder?Redrobo said:
At the moment opposition midfielders and full backs are running past our midfield. No defense can hold out for ever in those circumstances and is why I believe Cullen is the player we have missed the most. Pace up front keeps the defense back at home and creates a bit of space for your attacking midfield.RedChaser said:
At the moment we have to score 3 on average to win a game! I'd rather win 1-0 so we'll have to beg to differ. Bryan can play DM btw which still leaves room for a striker as I see Green as a replacement for Leko.Redrobo said:
I don’t agree. The defense was OK before the injuries in midfield and we have cover.RedChaser said:We have enough defenders but not enough quality IMO. Pearce is a good leader by example and always gives his all but unfortunately a penalty waiting to happen. And the QPR lad tore him a new one when setting up their second when he was trying to grapple instead of tackle. Nabby has his pros and cons but those cons can be very costly and have been.
Yes defending starts from the front and some people are saying it'll all be ok when we get an experienced midfield back. Maybe, however what I do know is that we need to start keeping clean sheets asap and I say again signing an experienced CB at this level will be key to this if we are to start climbing the table.
Don't concede and not only do you not lose but you stand a better chance of winning 😉.
We do not have any experienced strikers at the moment and none due back any day soon. You must score to win a game. If there are only two more to come in then a striker and a defensive midfield is what I think we need.
All about opinions, but I bet a whole shinny shilling that if Bows signs just 3 players that he says he wants, it will not include a center half.
We have Green. I expect a striker and a defensive midfielder.
If we sign more than 3 I still bet that we don’t bring in a center half.
Cullen, Williams and hopefully Field are nearing a return but we can't rely on on them not breaking down so yes maybe another midfielder. Provided we play a flat back four we can get by with the current full back options but Bowyer is not blind, he can see the weaknesses in the centre of our defence especially aeriallly since Bauer left so let's see how out it plays out and a shinny shilling I can afford 😉.

Not arguing, you seem to be the one getting aggressive with your capital lettersJaysusTheJay said:cafcfan1990 said:
I do agree, but he's been signed to play as a striker. On the day we signed him I raised the point that I would have preferred an out and out striker.JaysusTheJay said:cafcfan1990 said:
I agree, but we played Leko as a striker. Yes Green is a winger by trade but we are not going to play him as a winger so we have to count him as one of our strikers.JaysusTheJay said:cafcfan1990 said:
So we have bought him to play on the wing then have we? Or (like Bowyer has said) has he been brought in to replace Leko?JaysusTheJay said:cafcfan1990 said:
Davison and Green.JaysusTheJay said:cafcfan1990 said:

Blackpool Striker Today, Barnsley signing middle of next week.CH4RLTON said:I reckon one announced today
Maybe loan CB/LB and that will be it imo
At the minute, if we sign Gnanduillet, he'd be our only fit senior striker...Can you seriously say that Davison is a senior member of the team? He's been shoehorned in because of injuriesGreen is NOT a striker, as everybody keeps saying, he's a wingerI wouldn't have called Leko a striker eitherIf he's here to replace Leko's goals, he needs to double his whole career's tally...
Yes he would have to double his tally, but how many had Leko scored before he came to us?
Hence my point that we need a striker, as we keep filling the gap with people who either aren't senior members, or aren't strikers...I don't get what you're arguing then?You agree that we have no fit senior STRIKER in our team (only no-natural repalcements or youth team members)?
I am saying I don't think we are going to have 6-7 strikers in our squad who can up top. Yes Green is a winger but he has been signed as a striker, so he has to be included in that number, didn't think it was that difficult to understand to be honest.

Good. Get it sorted. He wants to stay, they want him to stay, we want him to stay. Can’t be that difficult.Bedsaddick said:1 -
Bowyer being smart with this IMO. Calling Southall's bluff. Nice increase paycheck coming0
-
Bowyer signing up to a new deal sounds like a no brainer to us.
But when you've just forked out £50 million or whatever. Live in a foreign country and know relatively little about football and the club you've just bought, I can see how Bowyers current win ratio might be a concern.
Southall going to have to explain the situation a little better to the holder of the purse strings methinks.5 -
That headline is slightly misleading IMO. Read the story and Bowyer says his agent will be at the game Sat and that MS will sort with his agent:“I want Matt and my agent Rob Segal – who is coming to the West Brom home game tomorrow – to put a contract together this weekend.“There is no reason why they can’t. They are both in the same place.“Matt has told me that is what they will do.”19

New thread for this already.0

Atleast it's a ready made excuse why there will be no signings before the weekend........0

@AFKABartram can we have a bitesize January rumours thread where we only have believable rumours from genuine sources?
It would save me reading twitter rumours from accounts with a couple of followers & "my next door neighbours best friends cat is mate's with player X and he's told him he's signing for us"2 -
Yes - Davison is definitely a striker and he is fit and IMO has improved with each game he has played. Bit raw - but getting there and shows real desire.JaysusTheJay said:cafcfan1990 said:

No where near Champ standard ATM and should not be considered a senior member of the team.cafc-west said:

Noise coming out of Blackpool suggests that we won't match their valuation and that we will more than likely move onto other targets. His contract is up in the summer, so their increased valuation from the £325k offered in the summer before the original move broke down, seems unreasonable.mattinfinland said:

Oh but I thought we had loads of money and Matt's statement was just a smokescreen for the spendathon that was about to occur.....................

There is concern with this.
Bowyer clearly rates him, wanted him in the summer and wants him now. 500k odd isn't a bad figure for a striker who has scored 15 goals this season and for who the manager wants. But we are moving onto other targets? Something doesn't seem right with that one.

If we had a full strength team, I doubt many people would have even heard of Davison, never alone call him a senior member of the team

Fuck being held to ransom over a mediocre player from Blackpool.35

It does make me laugh “Charlton can’t match Blackpool’s asking price” More like won’t match Blackpool’s asking price.ForeverAddickted said:
Either way I’m quite pleased it looks like the deal is off. It also underlined that Southall and co won’t be held to ransom, just because other clubs (and Taylor) assume that Middle Eastern money gives them the right to be greedy.Hopefully Blackpool will lose him for nothing in the summer - that will serve them right.14 -

Yeah I hope thats just a case of us telling them to fuck off because they want more money than what the player is worthricky_otto said:

The same news outlet said yesterday or the day before that a offer hadn’t even been received there side. So what deal has fallen through? I can honestly say I’m not bothered about the player think we could get better.1
