New Players for Next Year

[LFC Blue]

Another day passes and no new name pinned down. Good to see O'Flynn signed but it's Ogbene and Aganovic I want to see announced in a glitzy Markets Field press conference before the week is out.

[bluewhitearmy]

At least it wasn't Ogbene playing with Cork tonight.

[Jofspring]

Any of the foot.ie scouts out at training today?

[bluewhitearmy]

Ogbene announced. What a signing.

[Jofspring]

Ogbene announced. What a signing.

Cracking signing.

[blueblood]

Ogbene announced. What a signing.
Keep them coming lads

[fieldofmarkets]

Are we going to line up with 2 of Clarke, Turner, Kenny & Ogbene on the wings with Mulhall starting upfront? Or will one of those wingers play as a striker?

[thomas72]

Clarke ogbene on the wings for me.

We still need a top striker and a centre half of real quality.

Anyone hear of anymore players coming in.

[bluewhitearmy]

Striker there at the minute looks proper quality really hope we sign him up.

[thomas72]

Well known striker??

[Westside]

So who is it then???

[LFC Blue]

Massive relief to have Ogbene in the bag. Well done to Russell and Pat Sullivan what a statement of intent. With possibly Aganovic and this mystery striker our prospects are really looking up. The super blues for Europe !

[Lim till i die]

Reckon cork will get agnanovic which leaves us still short at the back.

The striker training is an actual Brazilian :D

[Lim till i die]

Ogbene is a fantastic signing aswell.

Him Clarke and Brazilian in a Russell team is potentially very ****in crowd pleasing!

[Jofspring]

Reckon cork will get agnanovic which leaves us still short at the back.

The striker training is an actual Brazilian :D

As in Brazilian Brazilian or driving down from Gort?

[Jofspring]

Our only chance of getting Aganovic is he would be guaranteed football here where as he would have a fight on his hands at Cork for a start at CB. From clips I've seen he looks like he can play ball from the back, exactly what russell wants.

[Charlie Darwin]

Reckon cork will get agnanovic which leaves us still short at the back.

Diego Costa, nailed on. Huge statement of intent from Pat.

[thomas72]

Lads can we just give a name you swear it was going to impact on if we sign him or not lol

[bluewhitearmy]

Lads can we just give a name you swear it was going to impact on if we sign him or not lol

It very easily could.

[thomas72]

It very easily could.


You think clubs don't know he is training with us?
When people on here even know stop ffs

[harpin]

Lads can we just give a name you swear it was going to impact on if we sign him or not lol

What's the point of a name its not someone famous...and why wouldn't it affect our ability to sign him...won't it be better if he actually signs

[CraftyToePoke]

Delighted with the signing, well done to the club.

[bluewhitearmy]

You think clubs don't know he is training with us?
When people on here even know stop ffs

They know someone is training I'd be very very sure they would have no idea who this actually is. What's the point putting his name up for fellas that wouldn't have a clue who he is anyway.

[topfan]

Heard one de coaches recommended him. Fingers crossed he'll sign n we'll all be dancing the samba!!!

[topfan]

Anyone know wot lenght of contract Ogbene has signed, hopefully at least a two year deal.

[bluewhitearmy]

Not 100% but I have heard it is a 2 year.

[LFC Blue]

Any chance this Brazilian is the one and only Rafael Ramazotti de Quadros

[Jofspring]

Any chance this Brazilian is the one and only Rafael Ramazotti de Quadros

Mike Aherne gave the name this morning but I just missed it. I'd imagine you are right though as Gamble suggested him.

Nope.

[Jofspring]

Nope.

Sounded like a nickname almost to me but couldn't make it out. It's a pity, 41 goals in 51 games for the lad mentioned above.Good return.

[thomas72]

Just listening to Live95 this morning they had a interview with Martin Russell he said he expects 1 or 2 more players in and will be more than likely coming from overseas said they be new to the league.

[LK37oldskool]

Rodrigo Tosi new superblues striker. 34 yr old. Much travelled Brazilian. Fierce exotic team we're putting together.

[bluewhitearmy]

This lad looks very very good in training strong lad great in the air and very good with his feet really excited to see him get going.

[Jofspring]

He has played in a lot of strange leagues but in fairness he has scored a lot of goals. Could be a gem for us.

[bluewhitearmy]

Players I spoke to about him said straight away he needs to be signed after playing with him I am very excited having seen him.

[EL_Limerick]

It's shaping up as a team we will enjoy watching especially with Martins style of play. Really positive week,now confident of having a competitive team to challenge for top 6.

[Jofspring]

We need some cover in CM and either a CB to play with Kevin O'Connor if Williams goes back to LB or we need another LB. It looks like a weak point at the moment. Squad looking good now and probably ahead of a few teams at this stage.

[LK37oldskool]

Andrew cunneen reckons at least 3 more signings. Down the spine. He's been pretty spot on so far.

[thomas72]

Excellent stuff well done club now it's very important we get a top centre half

[thomas72]

So any idea what is coming next?
Personally centre half midfield maybe one more striker.

[bluewhitearmy]

I've been hearing we are looking for down the spine anyway I think that is well known now if they are good standard we could have a very good season ahead.

[NeverFeltBetter]

Trying to ignore the Soccernomics memories ringing in my brain. Wonder how good the Malaysian Super League is?

[thomas72]

Apparently a French international midfielder is close to signing anyone also here this?

[nigel-harps1954]

Essien is from Ghana, but I can see how this could be confused.

[bluewhitearmy]

Squad at the minute.
Goalkeepers: Freddy Hall,Brendan Clarke


Defenders: Shaun Kelly,Tony Whitehead,David O'Connor,Robbie Williams,Shane Tracy


Midfielders: Ian Turner,Stephen Kenny,Shane Duggan,Paul O'Conor,Lee J Lynch,Chiedoze Ogbene,Dean Clarke


Strikers: Rodrigo Tosi,John O'Flynn,Garbhan Coughlan,Chris Mulhall

I know Payet isn't happy at West Ham but can't see it happening at the minute.

[thomas72]

Defence is very weak we need a couple of signing in that area alone one or two injuries and we are in big trouble.

Another striker needed aswell.

Midfield we are OK two very good wingers Kenny and Turner as back up is strong.
Defence a major concern

[Jofspring]

Ya the team looks extremely light at the back. I'd take two more defenders ahead of anything else Looking at what we have.

Squad finally starting to shape up nicely though.

[bluewhitearmy]

Don't forget Paul O'Conor and Ian Turner can cover in defence aswell. We need either a new starting or cover at left back though imo if we are being greedy like.

At the minute that can play in defence we have:

Right Back: Shaun Kelly,Ian Turner,Paul O'Conor

Centre Back: Robbie Williams.Tony Whitehead,David O'Connor,Paul O'Conor

Left back: Shane Tracy,David O'Connor,Robbie Williams

Considering we will be signing another centre back I am fairly certain then I don't think we are as light as it looks and given budgets I suppose we can't expect to have every position as well covered as we do the likes of out wide.

If we sign another centre back that will do fine as long as he is quality????
