Solbakken quotes post Aldershot Town

[Metro Wolf 2007]

I have read Solbakken's comments on the official website. I am struck by the straightforward and sensible remarks in plain English. A bit more straightforward and sensible than Comical Connor or Merlin.:alberteinstein:

 

[JOSWolf]

Also very interesting that he is quoted in the Sunday Mercury as saying he hopes to being in two more new players before the Leeds game.

 

[kidder_wolf_II]

The more he talks the more I think he knows what he's doing.

Maybe we have just been used to Connors comical quotes to the point we get overly impressed by a straight talking manager.

Surely one will be a Jarvis replacement, anyone's guess about the other one.

I think both are true.

 

[wolf of sedgley]

I feel he will do well for us, but he needs time and patience from the clubs more demanding supporters.

 

[GoldForever]

Id like 3 more, Geromel, Oviedo, A.N.Other.

Back 4 of . . Zubar - Johnson - Geromel - Oviedo - yes please.

 

[JOSWolf]

I can see us signing another winger if Jarvis goes.
Stale was bemoaning his lack of wide options after the game.

 

[goldfish]

A centre-half and a replacement for Jarvis, I suspect. Wouldn't be surprised/would like to see a full back (either side!) signed too.

 

[wolf97]

We need a left back. Now.

 

[Oldgold Wolfcub]

Are the two players Kello and the 17year old (Jacobsen?) ?

 

[SimplyTheWolves]

Plain and simple talking is what we need and it appears that's what we're getting. A bit like his intended football tactics in a way.

 

[JOSWolf]

Are the two players Kello and the 17year old (Jacobsen?) ?

I wouldn't have thought so. Jacobsen is very much one for the future.

 

[Sedgley Gold N Black]

We need a left back. Now.

Agreed. The fullbacks are very important to Ståle by the looks of it and I'm astounded we haven't signed a new LB.

 

[North West Wanderer]

Maybe he considers Ward more than good enough? I know I do.

 

[wolf97]

I bloody hope he's looking for one!

 

[wolf97]

We need back up if he does. Elokobi is useless.

 

[North West Wanderer]

Not a fan of George the player but he's adequate in reserve. O Hara can play there too and we have Reckord

Forgot about him.

 

[AW]

Forgot about him.

He didn't exactly set the world alight at S****horpe but did on the whole look solid. A prospect for the future.

Doherty played left back against Bray and he looked good in that position (even though it was only Bray).

 

[luckyjim]

Ward isn't the best fullback defensively, but as Staale wants attacking fullbacks he will be a big threat in this league.

 

[Dewsburywolf]

Didn't Ward take the majority of the set pieces? Corners & most free kicks, say what you like but "McCarthy's love child" embarassed is very much rated by Stale it seems

It's stronger centre halves we need

 

[Perton Wolf]

Maybe he considers Ward more than good enough? I know I do.

The amount of times he gave the ball away made me cringe yesterday. Not a good enough player for Stale's system.

I didn't go yesterday so I can't comment.

I also wouldn't judge on one game.

He only took the ones from the left hand side simply because Ståle likes inswinging deliveries and Ward was the only left footer on the pitch. Forde took them from the other side.

We desparately need a set piece taker in the side ASAP. SEB even took a corner late on because no-one else seemed to fancy taking it.

Milijas??

I'm not, just confirms the thing that I already knew. Ward gives the ball away way too often.

 

[haden-wolf]

Does seem like JOH needs to work on his set pieces when he's fit as we seem to have a real dearth of dead ball specialists
That was also the case when Kites was here and Jarvis wasn't tilting at the windmill of more England caps too - much as I like them both neither could take a decent corner

 

[Perton Wolf]

Back 4 of . . Zubar - Johnson - Geromel - Oviedo - yes please.

Zubar is a nutter with no brain and lost his man for the goal yesterday. Would prefer Foley there tbh.

 

[haden-wolf]

Discounting Ned - think he'll be moved on first half decent offer we get sadly

 

[LG Wolf]

Milijas??

This isn't American football. We can't just have a player in the side purely for set pieces.

Hopefully Peszcko or one of the new signings coming in will be adept in this area.

 

[Dewsburywolf]

So he's staying then?:goodnight:

 

[haden-wolf]

lol - hopefully better than a couple of bags of training balls - if he was fit i'd have thought he'd have made the bench at least yesterday if he was in the plans

Have you lost count on how many goals against Foley enabled with his ballwatching last season?

Maybe we need a new right back then

He is more than good enough for this division, so much so he won 'Player of the Season' when we got promoted, despite the embarrassment of choices we had for the accolade. However, I wouldn't say he is a fullback with attacking intent hence why Zubar is perhaps preferred.

 

[PeteWolf]

Need a new left back? Need a new set piece taker? Need a new tactic to break opposition players shins without getting sent off?

Lee Naylor is available.

 

[PREM.L.L]

Good honest comments. I think doubters like to presume the manager is oblivious to the $$$$ in front of his eyes. SS clearly isn't and is prepared to say so. Yep fine.
