Correct Bidley and I believe both were as subs - 1 in the Carling Cup and 1 in the FA Cup (when his sole contribution was to give away a penalty). Kind of petty to labour his awful 1st team record when he had the two Hs and Senderos in front of him. Also, in fairness, since he got over his little pout in January he has performed pretty well with the Reserves. But them's the facts.
Surely there is a reason for that though? With Senderos out of form and Hughes out of favour, it would appear there was an opening for him last season to stake a claim for a place, but Jol decided against it. Harsh on the lad, but he has a long way to go to get into the first team ahead of those three it would appear.
Yeah, he's rubbish! Might be a bit harsh, but if he was up to it he would've played, at least when Hughes was in charge.
I don't want to jump on the bandwagon here. Shipping Halliche out would be a positive though, because that spot will hopefully be going to young Dan Burn. Halliche has looked okay, but he certainly doesn't have the upside that Burn has.
Excellent point, Surlyc. Dan 'The Beast' Burn has been playing really well pre-season and, I believe, turned in another solid performances against MK Dons tonight. I know Baird and Grygera can slot in at CB but with the continued absence of Senderos we certainly need another recognised player in that position.
