Another player to add into our squad with little experience and expected to step up without any leadership around him.
They're not learning from their mistakes it seems.6 -
What leadership from the likes of 30 yo May, 28 yo Fraser and Captain Dobson you mean, ok.SELR_addicks said:Another player to add into our squad with little experience and expected to step up without any leadership around him.

GetYerCoreyOut said:Why is this Dabo signing being dragged out so much, surely means he's weighing up his options?
I'm trying to play catch up on this thread.
Only on page 419 but didn't Dabo fail a medical ?

Twice now apparently but played for the U21s the other week and put in a good performance according to reports.soapboxsam said:GetYerCoreyOut said:Why is this Dabo signing being dragged out so much, surely means he's weighing up his options?

Etete is 6ft 6 and scored last night for Cardiff. 3 in 13 for Cheltenham in 21-22 season.0

As much as I'd like to see a more proven forward come in its a fine loan signing, got some idea of professional football and spent some time at one of the top European clubs and a youth international, he's no more useless or out of his depth than kanu who people are currently raving about with 3 goals to his name this season already.
Anyway, half of you would be raging if we brought in someone expecting to start as then it'll be "but but but.. Leaburn" "CHUKS IS THE BEST SUB IN WORLD FOOTBALL HOW DARE THIS MAN TAKE HIS PLACE ARRRrraaggghhhhgghhghgh"

Alf has experience playing with him :https://www.newschainonline.com/sport/mens-sport/football/alfie-may-and-kion-etete-earn-praise-as-cheltenham-thrash-doncaster-257557
These types of big strikers will be good cover while Leaburn makes his way back in the team. No issue with signing them as long as they are seen as bit part players as I certainly can't see either making a huge impact.
Takes the pressure off of Kanu too9 -
I actually think he'd be a decent signing for this reason. Both him and Tedic look like they'll compliment May without being so good that Leaburn is on the bench all seasonBraziliance said:

He'll do that for us too when Leaburn is back.YannTheMann said:If our answer is a lad who has spent 50% of his career on the bench at standards of football either adjacent or marginally higher then I don't want to know the question
With Games going on for 100 minutes we need both Leaburn and I assume Tedic to job share the central striker role.
With Miles having had 2 or 3 injuries already in his short adult career no way can he play 3 games a week being battered by hairy arsed 3rd tier CB.

I’m being serious, if we have an extra man in our forward line. Chuks could literally play the cameo role for the second half of the season. You may laugh but let’s see how he fairs! We all know what he can do when he is utilised in that role for short spells.Chris_from_Sidcup said:
I think i see a problem here.......cafc_se7 said:People need to remember that we have Leaburn back to whom I actually think May will form a formidable partnership. Tedic will help and hopefully Chuks and Kanu can feature where possible.No I am not Charlie before someone calls it. I am being deadly serious thinking about it logically. I would love to see Nombe or JCH as much as anyone else. I am just glad to see our Miles back!1 -
Rumour, and it's only a rumour, is that McGrandles is injured and out for a couple of months.
And while I don't rate him at all that is bad news because it means we can't move him on this week, possibly meaning one less player in.9 -
Unless that's why Payne is off? I know they're different types of midfielder but would free up a bit of spaceHenry Irving said:Rumour, and it's only a rumour, is that McGrandles is injured and out for a couple of months.

Etete would be an intriguing option.0

I always remember your post when the news broke that we'd signed Yann Kermorgant ....... "UNDERWHELMED"
Sorry, mate. Forgive me. Just couldn't resist!

Kion Etete I think would be a far better partner for May.
In 10 starts for Cheltenham, they scored 13 between them. He scored 3, May scored 10, and the 3 assists Etete had were all for May to score.
Hope this is the striker we bring in.
We are unlikely to sign another even though I would love us to sign another 2 strikers on top of the others we need.31 -
Not at all @Oggy Red you are 100% right. Happy to acknowledge it and be humble enough to admit that even people as perfect as me get things wrong roughly once every twelve years :-)Oggy Red said:

No way Cawley tweets this unless he's been told there's definite interest from us.fenaddick said:15 -
I don't know a huge amount about Etete but it looks like he picked up towards the end of the season when he had more of a run in the team. He's young but he's played a season of Championship football. Would be an interesting one

Based on Cardiff responses to this it sounds as if Cardiff are trying to get Kieffer Moore from Bournemouth which would open up the possibility of Etete leaving.8

Wonder if Tedic is the back up plan to Etete3
