blueatheart Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 He looked good whilst Jones was on the pitch. From then on neither striker got any service. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 I am in no way suggesting we should Bin forte for Hiwat. Hiwat would a be a good addition though. Fair enough. However, at this stage, I feel a centre back, or two, is priority. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshgaz Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 He didn't really touch the ball, he had one shot which went way over. You can't say he will replace one of our best players. Let's see him in a side with Kelly Jones and Winchester all playing[/ quote] Yes would be nice to see him play with our best players behind him. He put an excellent cross in and has plenty of pace. Would be worth another look but to me picked the wrong option when he got the ball. We already have plenty of them. Dieng is only a centre half for me. Distribution isn't good enough to hold. Thompson and Kerr definitely worth another look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midsblue Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 How long is his trial? The pessimist in me is concerned that he plays well, shows promise and then is snapped up by another club. If that club is Newcastle then I don't fancy our chances him being loaned to us. Armstrong went to Coventry; quality at this level and I thought our Newcastle "tie-up" would have given us a chance to sign him. Is Watmore dead on water now?!

Postman Matt Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 I liked Thompson over Kerr aside from one stray pass he seemed quite solid and strong at the back... Hiwat did a couple of things which showed he could be a class above and that was a turn that sent 2 defenders for a paper and a quick flick and volley which although sailed over showed he has a bit about him mentally he worked hard and always made himself available definitely worth another look the Belgian on the other hand no ta.....

singe Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 We have conceded a lot of soft goals that have put us on the back foot, or lost us games over the past few seasons. So frustrating not to have remotely the same plethora of centre backs as forwards. I really weas hoping for a much stronger, settled,defence come season start. I fear this may come back to haunt us.

singe Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 Who said we could not get any trialists in..? Got to love Matt chambers post though. Matt Chambers @Matt_Chambers_ 32m32 minutes ago Got to love a mystery trialist or five. Maybe not so much 12 days before the start of a new season, though. #oafc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigfatjoe1 Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Jimmy Keohane is dreadful how is he ever getting a game for us, a waste of time that one. especially if it's two from Dunn, Winchester, Kelly and Jones. Now that's what i call depth for a promotion push. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
