Nordstrom Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 I have to say that Williamson has been a brilliant catch for the club. We turned our back on large transfer fees and stupid wages and we were rewarded with a player like Williamson. He has performed relatively well since we signed him and has certainly repaid the fee which we paid to Pompey. Compared to some of the centre backs at our rival clubs, Willi is miles apart and I'm sure that his partnership with Colo can keep us tight at the back for seasons to come.

Punk77 Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 Hes good, just dont pass to him. His passing has improved by each game after taking over for Taylor..Rock solid yesterday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, it's one of the best signings we've made for years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their CB partnership is as much about him as it is about Colo. It's balanced, it's simple and it works well. Which makes yesterday's decision all the more insane.

Yorkie Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 There's no doubting he's represented brilliant value-for-money. I'd still be looking at replacing him as a starter in the summer, though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisMcQuillan Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 There's no doubting he's represented brilliant value-for-money. I'd still be looking at replacing him as a starter in the summer, though. In an ideal world. But I can't see us bringing in more than 6 players if Enrique goes. 2x strikers, 1x LB, 1x RW, 1x back-up RB, 1 back-up CB to replace Campbell would be greater priorities than replacing Williamson, surely. Not saying we don't eventually need better, but I'd have thought he'd do until the next summer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 If we've got any ambitions of Europe etc, we'll be looking to bring in a genuine quality partner for Colo. I'd be annoyed if we weren't atleast in the market for a centre-back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be annoyed if we weren't atleast in the market for a centre-back. Rather have a couple of promising 18-22 y.o. centrebacks, maybe one from the lower leagues and one from abroad. Stick them in the 'developmental squad' and have them as back up for the main trio (Colo, Williamson, Taylor) along with Tavernier, Kadar (if ever fit) and James Perch () Presume Tozer isn't going to be good enough?

EthiGeordie Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 I think we played champions league with Bramble if my memory serve me right. Williamson is 100% better player than Bramble. It is better if we spend the money in another positions. Buying quick players will help us to the great deal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've handed them contracts because we need four CBs. If Sol leaves (which is likely) then we'll need one more unless someone like Kadar or Tavernier (I know he's predominately a RB) steps up.
