The Kraken Posted 14 June, 2013 Share Posted 14 June, 2013 Excellent news. Has also played right back and left back for Lyon so he also offers some versatility. Very happy. CB was our posirion in most need of prioritising for improvement and we've done it, and done it early. Well done SFC. A top striker next and the squad is really starting to take shape.

pingwing Posted 14 June, 2013 Share Posted 14 June, 2013 Awesome!

Edmonton Saint Posted 14 June, 2013 Share Posted 14 June, 2013 Anyone know much about his main attributes? Is he quick? as I think pace at the back is a prerequisite with the way Poch will have us playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I don't think he's particularly quick but if pace at CB is a prerequisite as you suggest then we wouldn't have signed him. In fact, we were defensively better under MP with little pace at CB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobM Posted 14 June, 2013 Share Posted 14 June, 2013 Great to see us doing our business early this year and strengthening a position we knew needed attention. Lovren + Forren as our new CB pairing? It will certainly push JOs and Fonte to improve if so, giving us great depth in that position for once! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
