Chris Solly looks a decent right back. Calderon and Bruno can't go on for ever.

Georgios Samaras - big, strong forward, good at holding the ball up and can play on the left of the three behind a striker if needed. Apparently Pulis wants to move him out from the other Albion. They got him on a bosman, so...
 


Bring back Bryan wade!!

Isn't that a tad pedantic considering it's clear I meant Kansas City when I said he was an MLS player? Isn't it a bit too similar to when we say we support Brighton but it's ACTUALLY Brighton AND HOVE albion?

NO! If you only knew the war that exists between Kansas and Missouri. People from Kansas City, Missouri don't want to be called Kansas!

It would be as if Brighton's name was actually Essex City. No one in Essex City would want people to think they were from Essex when they are actually from Sussex.

While we're being strictly accurate (pedantic, some might call it, although I wouldn't), will people stop referring to the American Express Elite Football Performance Centre as the Academy? It's the training ground for the whole club, and while the academy is based there, other stuff happens.

Was thinking the same myself, although you can't really go about quoting 'The American Express Elite Performance centre' in general conversation easily either...
The abbreviated 'AEEFPC' doesn't really roll off the tongue either does it?

So we need to find her a new nickname??

I get that they are two different places (state and city) but there is only one team with Kansas in their name within MLS. Thus my claim of pedanticism as I feel it was glaringly obvious to which I was referring.
