    It should be mandated that we have at least one three syllabled named player from Portugal, Senegal or Nepal in the squad at all times.
    or failing that, Montreal

    Does anyone remember the old Laurel and Hardy film where Ollie accidentally sticks a glued paint brush on the end of his chin, and Stan has to cut the brush off with a Plane just leaving the stubble.

    Apparently the gaffer has been bringing him on and off every 15 minutes in training games while singing ‘Papa was a rolling sub’

    Really tickles our Nige it does….

    Will the club supply a new kitbag?

    This is the guy that broke his leg in a car crash - not clear how much it affected him.
    From my Palace supporting mate (sorry!)

    ”Yes, we signed him from Lille, really good until a major road accident, not the same afterwards.
    Saw him play for the U-23s at Dulwich away.”

    Guess we'll primarily use him for the Papa Johns Trophy?

    I don’t think we’d spend money on a player of his pedigree just to play in the Pizza cup. 

    I’d expect him to be starting most weeks if he’s fit to play 90 minutes

    Interesting one this. Presumably Freedman has given enough intel to suggest the car accident and subsequent patchy appearances haven’t dimmed his ability. And Nigel must have liked what he saw during the trial.
    Could be a decent signing. And we have Purrington who, when fit, is more than good enough at this level.

    This is an interesting list: https://www.transfermarkt.com/league-one/marktwerte/wettbewerb/GB3

    Pape Souaré is ranked as 65th amongst all League 1 players, and the 590th best left back in the world. Obviously such a website, giving him a market value of 700 grand, has to be taken not too seriously, lol

    If he's rubbish, it might be a bit of a Souare spot given his Palace links

    Only if they can offer a Souaredough pizza base.

    I wish Papa Souaré well but the last player we brought in after a bad car crash was Christophe Lepoint !

    By my calculations, Charlton now have 24 players that qualify for the squad cap. Presumably two out of Forster-Caskey, Dempsey, and Schwartz will be left out until January at least. 

    Included Excluded
    Adam Matthews Aaron Henry
    Chris Gunter Albie Morgan
    Akin Famewo Charles Clayden
    Jason Pearce Charlie Barker
    Ryan Inniss Craig MacGillivray
    Samuel Lavelle Deji Elerewe
    Ben Purrington Hady Ghandour
    Pape Souaré Jacob Ruddy
    George Dobson James Vennings
    Harry Arter Johl Powell
    Ben Watson Nathan Harness
    Alex Gilbey Wassim Aouachria
    Ben Dempsey  
    Sean Clare  
    Jake Forster-Caskey  
    Elliot Lee  
    Corey Blackett-Taylor  
    Diallang Jaiyesimi

    I don't think its that much of a gamble to be honest. Only a one year contract and with him being out for so long you would imagine he is just desperate to play and therefore shouldn't demand too high wages. Got a good feeling about this signing, squad shaping up nicely.

    We needed a LB, he has a decent pedigree. May work out very well and he will get my support when he plays; but I can't get that excited about a 30+ ex Palace player with a recent record of injuries and lack of game time.

    Oh, and makes me laugh that posters come on here, make no comment on the player but just dig out other fans.  The most tiresome bit of this site as of late.

    Seems like a Roland acquisition. 
    I've heard Mark Reid is still useful up the left flank...
