Tooj Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 I heard from someone with French connections a while ago that Sam was in fact looking at their left back Jeremy Mathieu who apparently is highly rated in France. However I blew the guy off! I think it is more likely that Jeremy Mathieu is indeed the player Sam is considering. mackems.gif Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were no appendages involved, I repeat none whatsoever! Mathieu would be a top signing, young and left sided with a good future if they hype is to be believed. out of contract at the end of the season Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bealios Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 Thank fuck. I've said it on other threads, without two proper full back we will go down. Most of our shit performances this season have been when we have not had two proper full back. Most obvious example to me was the Stoke home game in the second half. Once the shape goes, it messes everything else up. The central defenders have no idea where they're supposed to be and they get pulled out of position and lose attackers. Also reference any game where N'Zogbia has played left back as an example. If we get another left back in the window and Mbia as well I would be happy and it would be a good window, particularly for a January when not much happens.

Syrette Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 The more bodies in the better. I must admit to knowing very little about him, but that was much the same for Bassong and he's been one of the few successes this season. So yeah, I'm intrigued to see how this one turns out should he sign on the dotted line. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, i understand the concept but there are not many clubs who have two good players in one position (if infact he is good) therefore one may become unsettled. We don't have a great history of managers making the correct choices. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tachikoma Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 Beye will be something like 32 by the time the next season begins, so why not? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
