I think this is the sort of defender we need to partner Bougherra, somebody to get stuck in about the opposition. Bougherra often has the pace to cover anyway. It would not be ideal though having a defender that is rather slow.
Credit to them for trying to make something there, it was good. Feel they have done some better displays in the past though. Cannot question the groups effort to create an atmosphere.
I cannot remember the last goal that we scored from a decent range, we try to walk the ball into the net in the final third. Then in our own third all the defenders do is punt the ball up to the strikers.
There will be several teams monitoring him, once his court case is over, if proven innocent I can see a bidding war. We should try and get a deal in place soon, pending the court case decision.
