Surely that can't be it??

Considering the injuries at CB, I am surprised Ince wasn't given some game time there in pre-season, it was the position he was signed for after all. He only got moved up to centre-mid when we were short of numbers.

Presumably you don't realise he really wasn't any good in that position.

Also after he proved he wasnt good enough to be CB which is why Chelsea released him. For a tall lad he is useless in the air and very erratic with his tackling which is quite important for a CB.

I'm rather delighted we're not having a big summer of signings and sales, every year we seem to line up with virtually a different team, will be nice to have some solid continuity

Nice to hear CH is still looking for 2 players - a striker and CB, so the answer to the question posed by the OP is "it isn't"...

Ince wasn't given game time there because he's atrocious at CB. That's why he was moved into a DM type role under Oscar.

We have 3 CB when fit so a short term fix would become the 4th choice Hunemier will be on the bench and in case of suspension or injury would step into the side and hie be replaced by in my example Haagerland.on the bench Haagerland is at the end of his career and has been offered nothing so I would think he would take the offer.to earn some money rather than nothing.

He's just retired. I'd like to think he's done that as a reaction to your suggestion but it's unlikely. Back to the drawing board BG.

A specialist centre back is going to be required for the Forest match on friday to play alongside Dunk.

Don't fancy Bruno against Assombalonga.

 

[warmleyseagull]

What is situation with Hunemeier? Has been long time and can't even remember what his injury is.

I agree. I remain shocked that we haven't landed an experienced CB...

He was back in training last week. Hughton suggested he should be back "after the international break".

Yes. Stability...If you look at the squad against Hull last season at the end of the transfer window
Ideally 12- 14 of these 18 will be in our squad for the equivalent fixture this year v Brentford on Sept 10th given that March and Uwe should be fit again.
The missing being those brought in since Janauary Skalak, Knockeart, Sidwell, Murray and Norwood + A.nother, + A.nother. Strong squad...


Stockdale, Bruno, Greer, Uwe, Bong, Rosenior, Stephens, Kayal, Lua Lua, Hemed, Baldock
Substitutes
Mäenpää, Dunk, JFC, Murphy, March, Ince, Zamora

Need a new CB and a replacement for Judas by Friday. Starting the season with a makeshift team and Judas up front is diabolical.

 

[atomised]

Think makeshift team is a bit harsh.

Nonsense. Muzza is a great player, and Bruno has been good at CB...

What a load of shit. We were great yesterday and seem to be carrying on where we left off last year.

Maybe we'll make a sneaky bid for the German at Man U who's name I'm not going to attempt to spell. Surplus to Jose requirements and 4m would get him. Why would he want to go back to Munich when the mighty Seagulls come calling?

Or Turkey for £100k per week.

Could be a big step backwards if Stephens is sold.

2 players required would become 3 players required.
