Danny Holla

[Marshy]

Simply not good enough to play in a 442.

You can see how he has some merit in a central 3 but we need better regardless, hes just taking up a chunk of wages for nothing

 

[One Teddy Maybank]

He was the best dead ball specialist we had until Knocky & Skalak arrived. The pace was too much for him in the championship. He'll perform well in slower leagues - good luck to him.

Exactly this.

 

[Simster]

I thought he was a terrible player to be honest. It's not his fault and I can't say I'd wish him bad luck or anything because he worked hard and had one or two good games for us, but overall has been a complete waste of wages.

Because of him and Manu, I now shudder whenever we are linked to someone from the Netherlands.

Bergkamp was a wee bit of a letdown too.

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Bergkamp was a wee bit of a letdown too.

Apparently when one of our managers (Hinch I think) was invited up to Arsenal with a view to picking up a couple of loanees, he asked if we could have Bergkamp

and of course Kemy Agustien is another from there.

 

[West Upper Seagull]

Elvis looks to be on the way out as well.

COG perhaps more difficult to shift ?

Nigel Clough seems to rate COG highly, really wanted him when at Sheffield Utd - I'd put money on him trying to sign him for Burton. Would probably be a big signing for Burton to get a proven Championship striker (and before anyone reacts, he had a proven track record in this league with Barnsley before signing for us !)

That would be excellent.

If not, maybe Barnsley would take him.

 

[Cowfold Seagull]

An amazingly bad signing

That's easy to say in hinsdight! To be fair I think he played well in a few games for us particularly after he first arrived. He wasn't helped either by the midfield due of Kayal and Stephens, who of course have been magnificent since they arrived.

I feel slightly sorry for Danny, he hasn't performed that badly and has done as well as he could in the circumstances.

Good luck to him in the future.

The Holla - Ince midfield came in for plenty of praise on NSC a couple of years ago.

 

[West Upper Seagull]

The Holla - Ince midfield came in for plenty of praise on NSC a couple of years ago.

I still think Ince has a bright future with us. It wasn't long ago when people were waving off the loss of Bridcutt because Ince was more than filling his shoes at one point. Yes, he did go off the boil before he went out on loan but he doesn't suddenly become a bad player because of a dip in form. His original position was a centre back - with game time and coaching in that position (cup games or U21's) he could be our natural centre back cover to replace Greer without having to spend money on someone else giving us more to spend on strikers.

Yep, people, (especially on here), have such short memories.

 

[Machiavelli]

I gave them a bit of praise after the Fulham game but, then again, it did constitute a welcome development from the Gardner-JFC axis.

Every once in a while, another name I attempt to expunge from my memory pops up, and I can't help thinking:-

'what f******g chance did Sami have?'

The Gardner-JFC axis might have performed a bit better if they weren't having to cover for the full backs stationed on the half-way line.



NB, please note, I did say might.

Quite, it's highly likely Sami would have screwed up the Kayal Stephens partnership too.
But then again Hughton, or any other manager, wasn't going to get a top 3 team out of the shower Sami had at his disposal.

I just read that, does that mean we are getting him match fit to ship him out, is CH having another look at him? Seems that Elvis is back in the frame and only an illness stopping him playing against Fulham?

 

[ewe2]

I like Holla and Ince as reserves,the problem as i see it is that they will not get to play ........
