Is he better than Williamson? If so, he adds something. He plays in a different position.

I wouldn't have thought so. We have less cover at LB than at CB. We were also trying to buy a LB in the summer (Pieters). I really hope that's the case. Maybe Mick Lowes was right... I still think we need a LB, no need to blow the bank but makes sense to be looking. I could make a case for us needing a player in almost every position. I think I'm satisfied in terms of goalkeepers and in the midfield, but the defence and striker situation is stinking: Debuchy S. Taylor Coloccini Santon > Simpson Williamson Perch R. Taylor Cisse > Shola > Ranger

He is.

We've used 31 players this season, if that's any help to anyone.

Definitely the right thread for this.

Aye but he had Steven Taylor and Cisse available as well, just opted to stick them on the bench.

According to Wiki he signed a four-year deal in summer 2009, so he'll be out of contract at the end of the season (of course he might have signed a new deal in the intervening period). 30.06.2014 according to transfermarkt who are usually quite accurate. That's where I was going off, but there are other sources saying 2013 as well Would certainly make more sense if his contract was out in June given how we operate. International footballer for relative peanuts. http://www.va-fc.com/fr/saison/actualite/article/7258/G-Bong-au-VAFC-jusqu-en-2014.html Definitely 2014. Glad to know Transfermarkt is still reliable.

Reports in Italy suggest Santon's agent is meeting with us to try and sort out a deal to Milan. Seems to be coming from this guy, not sure how reputable he is, works for Sky Sports in Italy http://www.gianlucadimarzio.com/calciomercato/santon-milan-gli-aggiornamenti/

Depends. If cheap enough it would be good to have two players for left back. Especially if he's a left footed left back. Would think though that we're after Isimat Mirin though. He's one of the top LB's in France, would just appear an odd move to go from being guaranteed a start every week in Ligue 1 to being a backup player here (unless someone is on the way out, of course).

Nah.

Bong's a left-back who's contract us up in 18 months. Seems an odd one.

He's on the bench.

Yeah. Happens every Monday morning @ 5am - last about 10 minutes.

I feel the same way about N-O posters at the minute tbh.

Thought that was a tough listen all-in-all. Not what I was expecting really, but didn't realise it was from later on in his career.

Find him fascinating like, will definitely give that a listen. Cheers Big Geordie
