RobertMack 0 Posted July 28, 2009 As the season draws closer I was trying to think of people in other teams to look forwards to watching; and unfortunately came up with quite a blank. Can anybody suggest particular players they are looking forward to watching, and bear in mind this can be for any reason at all (i.e. England youth player, former City player, wicked player on Football manager, etc...).First game up being Col U so any suggestions...

The Chirp 0 Posted July 28, 2009 yes. I think though with the loans in place (omusuzi rb, kennedy cb) roeder deemed he didn''t need the extra cover on top of that. Sadly we all now know (if we didn''t guess already) that a team full of loan players doesn''t work. Peltier is a fair player and one who would be worth a place in the squad but i am not sure if he is better than what we already have at L1 level. time will tell.
