adamoafc Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 Just now, daniel said: I’m not opposed to the signing, and competition is great but MM says the budget is nearly gone and I agree with you in that we are shorter elsewhere, so would rather strengthen there. We still need some depth. One player to cover both full backs who is an actual fullback I thinks sensible personally 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One player to cover both full backs who is an actual fullback I thinks sensible personally Yes and he has played at a higher level so hopefully a decent steady signing if true. I would love though that OAFC themselves got there first and announced a signing before it is ruined by the ITK lads because I have already googled him and awaiting the confirmation drags on forever.

Simpo Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 Caprice can play anywhere up both the right and left hand sides, so a player of his calibre who can play in so many different positions would be very useful indeed. Also if we're gonna start the season with wing backs, and we are able to use up to five subs, we're probably gonna want to sub then both off at some point to save them getting too tired and being susceptible to late goals. Wise move if so. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guy Branston Pickle Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 (edited) 1 hour ago, daniel said: Sutton and Hobson are fine as back up at RB and Jes has played Kitchings position the last 2 games. Seems a waste to me. They're not really, especially as wing backs, and I'd rather not go back to square pegs in round holes. People have said we lack depth. This would give us depth in a problem position Edited August 7 by Guy Branston Pickle 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yarddog73 Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 I have a feeling Mellon is not 100% on Kitching and looking for an upgrade, he's favoured Uchegbulam last couple of games even though Kitching had been flying previous. I suppose Kitchings alarming dip in form back end of last season would also still be at the back of his mind. This also emphasises Mellons view that we are always trying to improve. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crusoe Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 Caprice signing confirmed. Useful experience, adds depth (as others already said). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only Blue Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 That's the defence more or less sorted. If nothing else we are definitely more prepared and fitter than the previous two seasons. It's got to translate into more wins.... hasn't it?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diggleblue Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 Really glad the club has stopped those stupid cryptic videos before a signing is announced although a picture of a pile of rocks/stones would be nice. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mick26 Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 Can you have too much experience? Still think we need some younger legs in midfield and up front but MM seems to be very much in the older ex EFL camp. Short term so needs to work this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
