Poyet was awful in his last spell with us - almost invisible.
Agreed, however he was total mustard in his first season, that kind of talent doesn't disappear. Hoping Bow can reenergise him. Still has potential to be class.
If anyone can reinvigorate him it's Bowyer. Look what he's done with JFC. Although Poyet needs to sort his attitude out if he is to improve. I'd rather have Cullen or Pratley for a year though.
I disagree with JFC, I don't think he improved at all under Bowyer from what I saw. He had some decent spells last season but that was under KR.
Yes, while Bowyer was assistant and working directly with JFC.
Yeah fair point, to be honest I am not a huge fan anyway. IMO he is a decent League 1 player and that's it.
JFC is probably not quite as good as Mbappe.
close though, Mbappe only wins because of his speed.
...and his skill, athleticism, decision making and ability to perform at the highest level..
Not a fair comparison, JFC hasn't been given an England opportunity yet.
14 U-21 caps.
Plus represented England at every youth level before that. Now only needs to catch Southgate's eye to complete the full set.
But he said at the highest level. England U21 or any youth team isn't the top level.

Yes because to draw the comparison with Mbappe he would need to be given a full England opportunity, not youth level because that is the highest level

Joined Wigan last season after leaving us. Another former CAFC player at Wimbledon.
Think they could do alright this season, got some decent players for League One and Ardley always gets them working hard.
Though in this case Thomas is completely unproven. Had a look, Wigan loaned him to the National League like we did, so he’s only ever had a run of games in the 5th tier.

No, personally I never rated Thomas coming through the academy, others might have another opinion but he didn’t cut it for me.
I was just saying more in general about their business this summer. For a club like Wimbledon, they’ve done well.
So much for that midfield signing today! LB you shouldn't have even mentioned it! Your catching Robinsonitis
Bowyer didnt say we'd be signing someone today
He said that the player would let us know by today if he wanted to sign with Charlton
Bowyer also said we'd find out the identity of the player on Tuesday - presumably when the Belgian bloke returns to work.
LB said a midfielder would be here today (persumingly training with the rest of the squad) and we would know by tuesday who it was......I assume by that he means that either the club or someone else(the player, his agent, or someone on here) would leak/say something about who it was. Its not bloody rocket science.....Sparrows Lane is not Area 51 & players driving in/out/running around a pitch are quite essy to spot.
Chelsea are happy to let the youngster grasp a fresh start with the Tigers and, providing there are no late hitches, the 24-year-old will soon be a City player.

Dont think anyone knows then as BBC and Hull OS say loan

Isn't the trialist here either way? Didn't sound like they were only coming in if the mystery player signed.

Maybe Eddie Stobart is off to Dubai.
Doesnt count for the loan that gets mentioned
