Does this signing basically mean we have no room for Cullen, even if we wanted him?

No, Oshilaja coming in means we now have 4 centre backs.NapaAddick said:Does this signing basically mean we have no room for Cullen, even if we wanted him?
I don’t see Dijksteel moving into midfield either.
No doubt Bowyer still wants 2 or 3 midfielders and 1 or 2 strikers.

Not to say we will get all 6 more but that’s the ideal.3 -
Just to remind you: there is promotion from The Championship too. With Bowyer at the helm, we could be in for another ride like that of Lennie.LargeAddick said:
I somewhat agree. Maybe this is forward planning.oohaahmortimer said:Good to see we are building a proper promotion squad ......

I think it's OK. He's quite a small fella. He'd probably fit in the middle of someone's back seat for away games.NapaAddick said:Does this signing basically mean we have no room for Cullen, even if we wanted him?1 -

We're just unlucky though, right?2

If this means we bring in an extra body then can't say I'm too disappointed. Don't really rate him tbh.

Here we go, in terms of picking up numerous injuries already.
Gilbey, Pearce, Oshilaja out and all 3 are first team players for us. 2 injured mid/long term from training.
Agree with Talal in that Deji is so hit and miss that if we can improve in that area, that will be handy with him returning as cover. There must have been a reason he was captain at his old club, AFC and released too, I think we get to see why in games.0 -
Any one got Les Berry's number for Saturday ?2

Pratley centre half for next week then. I'm ok with that but it surely means we will bring in another CB this week.4

Out of contract at Wimbledon, Free Agent. Deji rejected another contract at Wimbledon because he wanted to play Championship football, I believe.
Hadn't he not also been on trial at Luton last year before signing for us?2 -
Bow said today in the SLP article that CB was a priority because of Deji's injury.MuttleyCAFC said:Pratley centre half for next week then. I'm ok with that but it surely means we will bring in another CB this week.

What on earth do they get up to in training?
Injuries happen so often it can't all be bad luck. Or is it?4 -
Bowyer said that they play the same in training as they do in a competitive match.Fortune 82nd Minute said:What on earth do they get up to in training?

If what he said is true, it could be the root cause.2 -
No such thing as luck. Everything happens as a result of something else.Croydon said:We're just unlucky though, right?
The players are breaking down and it could be anything from:
1. Not enough recovery between training sessions
2. Nutrition is wrong
3. Training sessions are too intense.
4. Post training stretches and upkeep routines are not being maintained
5. Freak injury
Personally think it's likely a mix of all the first 4. If your training is too intense and you don't have the correct nutrition & recovery you increase the likelihood of injuries.

I don't suppose for a minute that Roland's penny pinching left the medical department with sufficient funding and resources, which probably doesn't help either1

I don't think he can be blamed for players getting injured now. Oshilaja and Gilbey have come to the Valley with historical injuries. The players need to ensuring their recovery is managed to ensure they don't breakdown. A medical team can only advise and assist so much.MattF said:I don't suppose for a minute that Roland's penny pinching left the medical department with sufficient funding and resources, which probably doesn't help either1 -
Not the worst stroke of luck really tho is it?Croydon said:We're just unlucky though, right?
Erratic player of limited usefulness now unavailable. Charlie Barker to his more familiar central role, alongside Pratley and Gunter, will be a much more reassuring defensive line than anything with DO starting.
The fact that Purrington's spell in the middle of the backline was far less troubling than anytime DO has played there tells me all I need to know.0 -

It'll be him and Prats at CB on Saturday. Barker will be cover on the bench - unless a new CB joins this week.
Bowyer will know it's best not to overplay raw inexperienced youngsters.

Shane for Deji that he’s picked up an injury, how longs he out for?0

There's no time frame put on it yet, so assume weeksMendonca In Asdas said:Shane for Deji that he’s picked up an injury, how longs he out for?0 -
Given the wording I'm going to assume 2-4 weeks.MattF said:

Guess so, my post meant to say weeks. Assuming the worst and anything shorter will be a nice surpriseDazzler21 said:

Think we need to get at least 1 more centre back if not 2 now0
