He can move anywhere he wants now. The three-club thing only applies within a season, and the English league season has finished so his clock is reset, so to speak.
Didn't know Fredericks was out-of-contract. West Ham linked also - http://www.skysports.com/football/ne...yan-fredericks
Yes, a host of clubs now linked with Fredericks so it very much looks like he will be on the move, with West Ham still the frontrunners.
This is probably why Fulham got Christie in . Good forward planning from Fulham . Their plans are working well at the moment .
Yeah, makes sense. Fingers crossed they don't replace Fredericks without giving Christie the chance. I think he can step up. And I think that facing better players will make him better for us. Trying to keep an eye on Eden Hazard will surely draw improvement over time.
Nice to See him Start. Apart From fosu mensah who ARE The othe competitors för him At right Back?
How he and we could do with one or three of those from him while in a green shirt.
Came in for heavy criticism on MOTD2 as the weakest link in fulham's Fragile defence.
I dont think he is anywhere near good enough to be a right back in international football. His positioning is as poor as ive seen for years
Tbf I though he got a bit too much criticism last night - he was criticised for being too far forward and not tracking back enough, but it looked to me like Fulham wanted to really press Arsenal high and keep them in their own half as much as possible. It was a tactic that failed miserably, but it would help to explain his positioning.
Fulham's coach strikes me as tactically naïve, but he seems to have a lot of faith in Christie.
Christie is a high risk, high reward player. He will create chances for you almost every match, but inevitably get caught out of position and expose your defense.
Arsenal appeared to target him or at the least Fulham's right side, and had great success.
I think Christie has value for us against equal or inferior opposition. I have serious concerns about using him against superior opponents.
I would also add that he is a tremendous athlete and it could be worth using him as a winger, even if he is all over the place positionally.
Appears to be having some success raiding down the right against Spurs today, winning the corner that led to Fulham's goal and sending in a good cross that almost led to a goal for Ryan Babel. I know people seem to rate Doherty higher as a full-back/wing-back, but I've also read that Doherty doesn't have the pace to be an out-and-out winger. Christie, on the other hand, does. With that in mind, is there a case to be made for accommodating Christie further up the pitch, especially as we don't really have any pure right-sided winger currently?
It couldn't have been the first goal as some Fulham defender should have cleared the ball, so they must have been talking about the winner. Christie was easily outfoxed as the spurs player sent in a gorgeous inswinger which landed with pin pointed accuracy directly on the head of Winks who was virtually a yard or two out from the goal line, I thought the Sky pundits were critical of the fulham defender who let Winks get goal side.
Christie was quite reasonable at this level and one of the better Fulham players , though he has only one gear - hyperactive, if he stops for a second and pauses there's a good chance he'll be mugged.
Definitely wasn't at fault for the first. And I would have placed blame on the keeper for the second. Needs to take charge there.
He has a lot of tools but is missing one or two. He went on a delightful run down the right after the 80th minute and when he got into the Spurs half he passed it straight to one of their players and they broke. It summed up a lot of his performance for me. He's quick, strong, powerful running but allows himself to be punished by top level players for lapses too frequently.
