Noone to Cardiff - ** Confirmed **

[Thunder Bolt]

Who is your sauce for Orlandi - Bloom?

Natterjack has just tweeted Good luck Andrea Orlandi. At least he's going to a club that play football #BHAFC - I think he'll do well there

If Nooney does go I think we will miss him more than some people think. As well as attacking and keeping back oppositions wingbacks he also creates space often double marked allowing more space on the rest of the pitch. He also often draws fouls from opposition players getting them carded and making them more cautious for the rest of the game. I agree that his final ball has been lacking in the past but this season there does seem some improvement especially with the deadball, some of his crosses against Cardiff were spot on.

Ultimately I guess we need a striker more and if that's the only option then I can see the need is greater. Great shame though really enjoyed watching him over the last few seasons.

spot on....we're looking a bit light already and needed players coming in, not going out!

I can't see him going unless we have a replacement lined up

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

I think it's also worth noting that our full backs are much more of an attacking threat now and we dont have to rely on the wingers so much.

Bruno & Bridge certainly know how to get crosses in.

If we can get Orlandi on the cheap and use the rest to buy a striker it would be good business IMO.

Have we actually received any money for Hall yet to throw in that Striker kitty?

I've found him quite frustrating to watch recently, all his good work to then punt a ball miles away from its intended target.

This......i feel we have better already in the squad. 3/4 into 1 place simply doesn't work

i cant see us getting anyone in time if he does go

We seem to have one out and one in tonight and there is still more time

Rumour has it Andrea Orlandi is already pretty much in the door as a replacement...

 

[brightonmark1234]

that's just rumour thou and there stadium is rubbish

A strong rumour with several sources though

 

[severnside gull]

Let's assume we haven't added one and one and made three with Orlandi - the Swansea fans are quoting us as the source and we are quoting them

Havn't read this whole thread so might be on here,but interesting to see Orlandi is another sicknote.

What a scruffy looking forum there's is.

Not Prem like our home.

I'm convinced that we will. Bearing in mind this latest news came out of the blue, regardless of the previous interest from Cardiff, imagine what Gus and co are working on behind the scenes. I wouldn't be surprised if two, or even three arrive either before the end of the window, or shortly afterwards, on loan...

Oh ok,just as long as you know.

 

[brightonmark1234]

we will miss noone
