buzza Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 I think Nolan will play a leading role for us next season, I hope the rumours that he is a stone or so lighter are true as he was carrying too much extra last season. I really would like to see him at 100%, I like him and think he will be the second striker behind carrol. Back to the thread, I would also go for Cambell Coloccini pairing at the back, loads of high level experience and hopefully this past year in the championship has smoothed Colo's intro to english football, still has me on the edge of my seat a couple of times a game but is getting better. Cambell also is the more agressive leading defender which I think <Colo will take to well... Another couple I think will push on are Barton (can't get any worse I suppose) and Guthrie (ver consistent end of last), I think will Nolan or whoever giving them a hand in midfield it will help them develop as a pairing, I just hope that Hughton isn't stupid enough to stick barton out wide as it would be a grave injustice to our wide boys.

ponsaelius Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 Nolan was just as immobile as last season if the Carlisle friendly is anything to go by. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest icemanblue Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 Nolan is a Hughton favourite and a presence in the dressing room. Makes sense to give him the band. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incognito Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 Because he scored goals plentiful at domestic and at international level,he was lethal in front of goal. However it was obvious to all with a trained eye that once his pace went through either age or injury that he would be ineffective. A world-class goalscorer?Definitely,but as his whole game was just about blistering pace and finishing,a world class footballer?No. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 Agreed looking trim there, though we really need to see from better angles. If he's fully fit mentally and physically is a cracking signing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cronky Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 My favourite Sol Campbell insight - The opponent who Ian Wright least enjoyed playing against was Campbell. Wright would spend all game talking to the opposition centre back, putting him off and winding him up. However, no matter what he said, Campbell would completely ignore him. Not the slightest flicker of a response, and Wright would end up driving himself mad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
