Hardly surprising in comparison to what he would be acustomed to. Missed out here, us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like I’d never heard Omrani, Mouache or Menig, none of which were worth a place in the team. Sign some proven quality like Doyle, at least you know what you are getting - or likely to get. Too many chances being taken on sub-standard foreign players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeroyboy Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 We are importing a lot of players from abroad we have never heard of, very few are anything special. The goalkeeper being the big exception. I'm slightly concerned because I think we are going to need a touch of good old British bulldog fighting spirit in the next three months, unless AL comes up with a couple of worldies.

Kusunga_Is_God Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Strange one re. Menig. Nantes have no interest in playing him and want us to honor the loan contract until the end of the season... With AL now in charge I wonder if we will see him feature again.

Mum quite excited at the prospect of this Moimbe lad. We’ve needed a proper LB all season so hopefully he’ll bring some much needed balance to the team.

AlanGrovesFanClub Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Wilfried + 3 others apparently. Perhaps one is the Turkish Swede? https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/sport/football/oldham-athletic-wilfried-moimbe-wellens-14218245 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

super_blue Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 A group of players arrived last week as Wellens has mentioned and more arrived today...defo players coming in regardless of managers thoughts. Unclear if their trialists but I would say not with only 2 days of the window left unless they are all free agents. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnafoafc Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 My main concern with all these unknown foreign players coming in is whether they’re up to it. The club isn’t in a position to be letting unknown quantities cut their teeth. Hopefully there’ll be a few established players coming in to drag us out of this mess.

We currently don't have the manpower nor the infrastructure to support all these imports, its absolute commercial suicide and if nothing else fucking stupid to force these players on Wellens in this window and they are just the opposite of what we need, all the talk of getting the fans onside is complete bollocks because this lot who have arrived will see us fighting Bury for the wooden spoon.

Why is it commercial suicide? Surely Abdallah is paying for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've no doubt he is but the ramifications of relegation are huge, can't get my head round how AL thinks these players are the answer to our problems.

nzlatic Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Where has it been said we’re signing all these overseas players? Aren’t they just on trial then we keep the ones that are worth having? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep. Sending us down would make AL loads of money. That’s got to be up there with the weirdest conspiracy theories. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None of the last lot were really all that yet AL brought them in over Shez's head, RW doesn't need a load of unknown trialists clogging up the training sessions, not one of them lads he will know of yet your expecting him to get them playing for us in unfamiliar surroundings in a relegation dogfight at the arse end of League 1 - good luck with that one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
