I'm sure Wagner moaned about this at some point this season. Not sure if it was the travel, injury or both.

mmm I hope so, I like Sidwell and he has PL experience which could be vital but I think its probable he wants more game time than we can guarantee.
As has been said, I think Norwood will come into his own in a 5 man midfield, when that stopper is not quite required quite so much.

meh, thats what squads are for, longer breaks between games in Prem should help. Cetainly not a reason to say no for me.
Not keen on Aussies Boz? That disruption playing games on the other side of the world never stopped Jedinak being a complete pain in the arse wherever he went.
Fair enough. He's still an Aussie though.
Frightful people, aren't they? My view may or may not be clouded by having worked for an Australian company for a very long time.

Hey, as NSC resident bogan i resent that comment.
I've seen some of his interviews. He appears to be very reserved and quite shy. Quite the opposite of a stereotypical Ozzie.
There will be no games, where we are crying out for somebody to be consistently half a second late into challenges, giving away a succession of free kicks on the edge of our box.
(Sorry Siddy x)

Well, if you only take the Villa game I agree, but he wasn't the only one who had a bad game that day...
Bit harsh. Arguably Sidwell had a better season than Kayal, who seemed to struggle to regain any sort of form post injury, and wasn't particularly a stand out prior to that.
All based on the previous seasons standards of course.

Yes, true enough. Still think only Bruno, Dunk and Stephens turned up.

Would be an excellent signing for sure.

On the flip side, he's been offered a contract whereas I'm not so sure (and maybe he's not) that he would get one anywhere else. Maybe it's a case of a few PL games are better than no PL games? As you say, it's a squad game and I think he could be an important part of the squad – on the field and off it, given his experience of the league...

So what newspaper would you believe then... ??... out of interest.

Tomori was the best player on the pitch.
Stockdale was excellent too... for 89 minutes.
Thought Tomori was ok, but defensively his clearances were going to central for me where they had numbers. It's hard to believe how young he is - such a good player.
Stocko was indeed excellent for 89 mins, but sadly it's not the saves you make, it's the ones you concede. Think I gave him a 7, which still feels about right.

I think you are right. I like Siddy as a player, (I really do), but next season we are in the Premier League, and I honestly think those days are probably behind him now. He was slow in the Championship, imagine what he will be like when we go up a division.
Like it or not, l think we need as many as six or even seven new players to help us adjust to the new level, but whether Tony Bloom will see it that way is another matter.
I was more impressed by Hogg. Mooy not bad for £2.5 million (opening bid).
