We need a new left back!

Post by ComeOnYouOs »

We need a left back. Hunt looks totally out of his depth in league 1, and Sweeney was never really a league 1 footballer.
Teams realise this and attack down Hunts side.
If we could bring in a left back, then James could go back to being a right back, and the balance would be better.
We also need a number 10, because Moncur is never going to be a regular any more, and a striker of proven league 1 pedigree.
We might survive this league if those can be brought in during January

How does telling us this make any difference?

Our priority is in attack . Whatever money we have left must be spent in that area.

This is bullying, pure and simple bullying. To someone a little 'fragile' this might cause them real problems.
To me, i dont give a monkeys mate , I know you're a tosser, and anything you say is worthless,
Hope you feel proud of yourself for bullying
Youre a disgrace.

I'm still not sure if Sweeney is decent or terrible. Hunt is really uninspiring.

Can’t believe Sweeney doesn’t get to start
reliable gets forward what more do we need ..
No need to waste money on a new left back
he’s already at the club ..

Loved Sweeney last season but he really hasn't kicked on at all when he's had the chance so far this campaign. I can very much believe he's not starting.

Everything you said after "mate" is giving a great indication of how little of a monkey's you definitely don't give.

Did you have an overwhelming desire to post that?
What benefit to anyone is gained by you posting that?
I used to think you were ok, but it appears you're not much better than some of the idiots who constantly try to humiliate me and make me feel small.
It's not a nice feeling, I promise you

I don't want you to feel bad or small. I would still say that perhaps going on an abusive diatribe isn't the best way to show someone that you don't care what they say about you. You obviously had an overwhelming desire to call the guy a tosser, what benefit did that give to anyone? Maybe just ignore people if you don't care what they say?

I think the problem is, you need to divided these league into threes or fours, Hunt, Sweeney, James etc are all fine against two of those leagues but when the step up in class hits it causes problems but really Orient for this season only need to do well in two of them leagues and not the other two that's the main thing

We need Jan 1st
I haven’t got a clue if we have funds to bring in any new players?
Do we have to ship anyone out to bring in anyone new?
Anyone know?

If we do, any new players will prob be free transfers, so depends on who is available on a free?
If we go down the loan route we can only have 1 or 2 more as we already have 5 loans.
1 striker no.9
Goalscorer
1 attacking player who can play wide and anywhere in front 3

I was hoping we’d sign Dan Scarlett at the beginning of the season so I’d be pleased with this . However I don’t know if he’s already out on loan .

Please for the love of god can we give
Sweeney a run in the side as our full
backs are so poor ..
It seems they don’t have to put in much
of a shift to ensure they’re in the side
for the next game ..
Yesterday’s performances was clear and
evident that changes especially at full back
is greatly required..
