Well we do need someone to fill the obligatory 'Tony's old boy' role now Downing's moved on.

Pouring petrol on a car crash there!

I'm telling you... It's either Messi or Rodriguez.

Rodriguez is off to Everton, so it must be Messi.

Don't fancy he's displace Dack though.

Hmmm...Car crash signing.  

Have we resigned Sam Hart at left back?

I was gonna suggest David CrackingJohnson* to fill the void left by Graham. 

*If he's still playing football that is.

Glen Murray signed for Watford, getting on but will do well at this level again.

Hopefully Deeney will move back to premier league

That’s funny because for some reason that’s what I thought.

Yep first name that came to me too!

Hope its not Morsy, was it not him who "nudged" Dack when he did his cruciate?

 

 

[chaddyrovers 6027]

I wonder if its another signing under the radar and no link to us similar to the Kaminski transfer

Sarr is supposed to be steady enough isn’t he, so I don’t think signing him would warrant a ‘brace positions’ post - particularly when most of us probably realise deep down that Kipré is unlikely to join.

Just looked on transfer market. Sarr valued at £720k, Kipre at £1.08m, so not a lot of difference between the two.

Marcus Maddison (decided to get himself a new pair of jeans)

Them transfer values are fairly meaningless. Sarr has a value of 0 because he doesnt have a club. Kipre is a far better defender but ultimately is worth 900k.

[Ruaney 367]

Luca Toni finally putting pen to paper?

That has taken a while even by our standards.

[pjt 84]

What I cant get my head round with Mowbray is his apparent willingness to offer contracts to certain players (downing and rodwell) and then leave them open for ages, but if a younger

player who has the chance of going to a PL team, then its sign for me or on your bike?

It does sound like Kipré is the better of the two, and I still hope we can get him in. But ‘brace positions’ certainly makes it sound like it’s a signing that most wouldn’t receive well at all, whereas Sarr would probably generate a ‘meh’, mixed reaction....don’t think anybody knows enough about him or has watched him enough to have a strong view either way.

[OssyLad 174]

Charlton fans seem to love him 

[PeteJD13 459]

Its not Kipre as people have said my guess is Sarr which is a little bit underwhelming but heyho

I think its more of a "brace yourself, signing incoming" rather than a bad signing.

Good that Josh likes your post.

I think I’d have preferred “strap yourselves in” (rocket launch) rather than “brace yourself (plane crash) though!

Good write up here on Sarr, bit on website: https://www.cafc.co.uk/news/view/5e01defbc2b43/100-up-the-charlton-journey-of-naby-sarr

Brad Smith? Greg Cunningham?

[roversfan99 8610]

Greg Cunningham played for Cardiff earlier today in a friendly.

Sarr might be a decent option ideally as one of 2 if it is him. Badly need a left back ASAP too.

Sarr was not fully trusted I dont think by Bowyer at Charlton.

[OssyLad 174]

Could be our new back up keeper

why wasn't Sarr by Bowyer? something you know for sure or just your opinion? 

Yes we do need a left back before the start of season
