OAFC Blues Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 I wonder if this signing was happening regardless of Stones' injury. This seems to be the same type of player as Kofi Moore, quick winger that can be used through the middle. MM brought Moore on as a striker when he came on as a sub. Makes sense with Moore going back out on loan too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't immediately see anyone on ICM Stellar's client list who fits the bill for us. A quick look suggests Walker is one of theirs! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crusoe Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 (edited) Is Walker lined up to sign permanently in future? Seems like a lot of very excited stories on the fishal for a loan signing otherwise. Edited January 2 by Crusoe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quiet day at the office I’d wager. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder why Couto has never been tried switching flanks when you think players at other clubs have done it, Denis Irwin for example right to left, and its often the case with wingers, Jack Grealish for one? Couto might not be good enough, but worth trying IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couto might not be good enough, but worth trying IMO. He's weak enough tackling with his left foot so doubt it would be a career changer for him. Regarding Irwin, if Stuart Pearce had signed for United when they wanted him we may never have heard of Gary Neville !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BP1960 Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 Right back and right winger incoming I hear. Seen the winger, he's experienced, small but a box of tricks who scores goals. The right back I've not seen, but young and strong I believe. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like we’re shopping in the bargain bucket until the summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
