  • 💬LB: "Saturday will be tough. They got a good home win against Fulham. We have to respect them because they finished above us last year. It will be tough, like every game, but if we apply ourselves the right way & compete, then hopefully we get the result that we want." #cafc
  • 💬LB: "No fresh injuries to worry about, So we’re all good." #cafc
  • If we can’t get Hamed then the good news is Llorente, Sturridge and Odemwinge are all still available as options!

    I wonder whom the two we missed out on are?  Oztumer and Taylor or Tooney?
    I'd say Taylor at Bristol city was definitely one, as they signed a replacement (Afobe) too late.

    We don't need Oztumer now, we're overloaded in midfield.
    Not sure I agree with this.
    Signing Oztumer now would allow us to send  Lapslie or Morgan out on loan.
  • Harriot is better than any of the front 4 on Tuesday. Has to be a money decision.

    Not better than Chucks.

    Didn’t I read that Harriot is injured - might be more to do with that..

    Or Bowyer doesn’t rate him that highly. We know he’s a lower Chamionship player at best, and a very inconsistent one.

    Pretty unacceptable, the FA's attitude towards Hemed. Unlike the EFL their organisation is groaning with money, they should be able to settle these issues promptly.

    You are wrong. He isn't better than Aneke or Bonne. The midfield against  the Vegans Couldn't feed them. Harriott doesn't have a football brain unfortunately. If Bowyer thinks Fosu can't hack it then Calum has no chance.

    Bonne should have been the designated Penalty taker in the absence of Taylor.
    Good record from the spot and needed the boast.

    Bowyer and the coaching staff have had plenty of time to look at him, and I am sure there would have been money for him if he wanted him.

    I think he would be a step back for us if we had signed him.

    Were you there on Tuesday? The attacking threat was negligible from our reserves against a fourth division team. Harriot on his day is better than any of them just now

    When was the last time you saw Harriot play in order to judge that?
    “On his day” is the clue there, unfortunately he was never blessed with consistency.
    I don’t think we can afford the luxury of having  a player in our squad that is going to blow hot and cold on an ongoing basis.

    It's all a matter of opinion of course but specifically on Tuesday night Aneke just seemed to be going through the motions and Bonne's first touch was poor. They scored 5.04 and 4.86 in the statbank accordingly. I'm and probably @Southbank 's not saying Aneke or Bonne are worse than Harriot but that he would have had to go some to score lower albeit he has managed that in the past on more than one occasion.

    As I've mentioned before I saw him for Reading at Stoke end of last season and he did ok but he certainly has his detractors amongst our fan base who have no time for him. On the performances of the attacking players against FGR Sothbank's observations were valid IMO.

    Hopefully the Hemed situation turns out for the better but if not a fit Harriot would be better than what we saw up top on Tuesday. Beggars can't be choosers but maybe it's best that Harriot hasn't signed as he would have easily leapfrogged Solly as this season's potential whipping boy. However in Bowyer, who may be keeping some of the budget back for an out of contract full back*, we trust.

    Edit; * Or Oztumer!  :D

    Complete lack of ambition...

    I wouldn't say we 'need' him, but it's another player in and i certainly won't complain.

    Get Hemed sorted and we're set up very nicely for the next few months.

    Certain it'll be Albie. 

    Lapslie has actually been of use so far. Albie merely showed a flash of class against Blackburn.

  • Football Focus,  BBC1 - Saturday 17th: Interview with Lee Bowyer at 12:45.
  • Good interview. 
  • Good interview. 
    Completely agree and nice comments from Solly and Cullen.  Comes across as so straight and honest.  Have the feeling that if he wasn't at Charlton - then he wouldn't be anywhere else.  Seems to have a real affinity for the club.
