I rest my case. What has he ever actually done for us?
I dont understand it, people slate Bozzie and rate Carole?! Bozzie was 5 times the player.

He's ok to bring on in the second half to run at a tiring full back, but as a long term solution I don't think Carole will be a worthwhile signing.

For once, I have to agree with you.
Thus far we have signed a 2nd division Spanish right back who no one wanted for 6 months and now we have signed a player who was awful last season and is a defensive liability.
We still don't have a left footed left winger and have we improved the squad or brought in better than what we have? no.

He'll be on minimal wages... and a week by week contract. So really we have nothing to lose. If he turns out to be horse turd then we can easily ship him out.
But if we have championship ambition we need to get some real quality in!
So far Carole and Calderon are not the money spinning transfers we all expected!

What money? Why do you think Brighton have a load of money to spend?
We didnt need a right winger! As withdean wanderer says, we have three already, and i believe 2 of those are easily better than Carole (cox and Bennet) which takes a lot to say as i dont rate cox at all. What we needed was a left winger, and we are still lacking that position, i dont see why we dont focus on those positions instead of ones we are already strong in. Im more than happy to give the right back from spain a chance, but this carole signing is dissapointing, even if we do have nothing to loose. If the idea is to play Carole on the left, it still leaves us with the same problem, imbalance and players being played out of position.

I didnt say we have loads of money. but so far have spent ZERO.
I am hopeful that calderon and carole will do well, but any club that has championship ambitions should have the ability to spend at least a little money on transfers.
but i guess its early days.. so who knows what the window will bring.

There is the possibility that Gus is playing the transfer game very astutely & not showing we have no options & nobody in place therefore not leaving us wide open to getting scalped by Hartlepool or whoever we are negotiating with over players. Maybe.

I liked Carole the first time, however I do think that we are taking a backwards step. But this does lead me to believe that Bennett will not be with us come Febuary 1st

I totally agree with murraymints and Withdean Wanderer. Poyet said in his own words we needed a left sided midfielder and an experienced centre back so what are these signings about. Sounds like jobs for the boys, Poyet knows Carole and has intimated he knows the RB. Does that cloud his judgement here? Again, dissapointing.
