Sol Campbell

[Gawge]

I was reading the Sport section in the Guardian this morning, and Sol Campbell was talking about how he is looking for a club:

"Offers have come my way but after what happened at Newcastle, I want to make sure I'm truly wanted by a club and that they understand the value of having me; that I can pass on my vast reservoir of skill and knowledge to the youngsters who are there already while playing at the same time. I know a hell of a lot about football and feel I can contribute for another year."

Do you think he would be a good addition to the squad? I think we need somebody with experience at the back, and there are few free agents with that much experience. Whether he would be the right person, i'm not sure.

Better than Hobbs. Why not?

 

[Spanner82]

he'd cost too much IMO

 

[kccircle]

I reckon he will have lost his pace.

Still think we should try to tempt Kilgallon on loan

 

[HFFP]

He has the pace of a dead turtle!

 

[THETIGERZHULL]

No better than we've already got, he's a has been, great in his day but not now, he'd be another OLD man signing like Adebola & McKenna

We don't need to sort out the defence, we need to sort out the scoring goals department.

The key is getting that first goal, we proved many times last season we know how to defend leads. If we'd have scored the first goal against Blackpool, Leeds and Palace we'd have won all of them games and be sitting top with Southampton and Derby. The fact we had chances in the Blackpool and Palace games to go ahead but we just didn't take them. Even against Leeds we had a bunch of shots and corners but couldn't score.

Our defence is just exposed from lack of experience all over the pitch when we need to chase a game. Defending is about the whole team, not just the 4 players at the back and the goalkeeper.

He was a donkey when he left Pompey hes a bloody dead donkey now ffs!

 

[guitartrax]

I think we should stick with what we,ve got at the back, unless we could get him cheap say on a pay as you play basis or something similar

 

[merchantman5]

The defence is not the problem, apart from goalkeeper. We need strikers to put the ball in the back of the net.

 

[Granada Tiger]

I reckon Kilgallon will sign for us on a seasons loan.

They say the first yard is in the head but Sol has been playing so long I would worry about the second yard. I am sure there are better players out there than him.
