Have just seen on Twitter that the useless, lightweight fart George Tucadean has asked to leave #cafc, and loan to Bucharest is currently being negotiated. Good news. He couldn't hit a cows's arse with a banjo.
he wasnt as bad as people are making out. saying that, i'll never forgive him for that miss in the last minute when he tried to take it over the keeper and run it in, instead of just burying it in the bottom corner.
I think there is a queue forming outside Luzor's office at the training ground (surprising because Luzor is in Sidcup sightseeing) but some players are waiting for tomorrow because the queue is rather long.
Other than Reza, none I reckon. Given the recent signing of Tony Watt, he's gone from 1st Team Starter to now, third/fourth choice striker.
It's all when and good losing players, but we need to bring replacements in. And not another Liege reject. RD has got everything horribly wrong since the end of summer. Everything.
I know of at least one of the youth team who is not signing the pro terms offered because he is worried about what is happening at the club
I genuinely thought George would eventually click, but the ongoing idea of recruiting sow's ears in bulk in the hope of producing silk purses continues to bear the fruit most people in football knew it would. Could RD be persuaded to bring in people who 'know' the championship. It would work out cheaper long term.
I would not want to miss out on Lapslie, Edwards, Lookman, Barnes or Hanlan. Any others it would really hurt to lose? Ahearne-Grant, Gomez, Kennedy and Mitov have already signed?
Yes, I welcomed his signing but said it would take a year to come good at Championship level for physical reasons. Hard to judge any player with our shambolic set-up but he does not seem to be any better now than when he joined. Gudmundsson seems to have gone backwards and I never had much faith in Buyens. A useful squad player but should not be used to impede Cousins' progress and not good enough to build your team round as the Belgians have been trying to do. Bulot and Moussa not much to go on. Both have some talent but do they have the stomach for Championship football?
Can't be happy at Tucudean going. Firstly, Vetokele is better with him in the side. Secondly, he's created more than he's given credit for, last minute sitters for Bikey and Igor spring to mind. Thirdly, most importantly, because ultimately I'm defending someone mediocre, we don't have anyone better.
You cannot carry anyone in the team just because they create the odd chance now and then. Costa, Aguero, Austin and Sanchez are the top scorers in the Premiership but they still work their bollox off all over the field, chasing, harassing and tackling. Tucudean cannot tackle, cannot ride a tackle, cannot head the ball and is not particularly quick. Gudmundsson is similar though offers more otherwise, and you cannot have two like that in the team. It leaves too much for the midfield to do in the modern game.
Like you, I have seen most if not all of Tucadean''s performances this season. Two goals from around 20 odd appearances, many as sub. In away games in particular he simply goes missing. It is like playing with ten men. He simply lacks the physicality for this league and the heart for a battle. Judging by his Twitter page he sees himself with his red Ferrari as a bit of a playboy, so maybe Montenegro or Monaco should be his next port of call. Not many casinos in SE7.
