ABC123 Posted October 9, 2018 Report Share Posted October 9, 2018 Just going off twitter rumors, looks like we have signed Baccus (the older brother) from WSW. His not the best player, I must say and not sure why we need another mid. His the guy who got subbed against us two weeks ago and cracked the shits as he left the field.

Possibly an injury replacement? Subject to FFA approval we would probably be entitled to sign an injury replacement for O'Halloran, and for Malik if his injury is long-term. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rayv36 Posted October 9, 2018 Report Share Posted October 9, 2018 Surely the Baccus rumour is bullshit, he wouldn’t even get on the bench. If he’s going anywhere I’d imagine it would be the Glory to follow Popovic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neio Posted October 9, 2018 Report Share Posted October 9, 2018 I'd take the younger baccus, he is a really good kid The older one is OK, but we have adequate cover in his position, seems pointless Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hakz7 Posted October 10, 2018 Report Share Posted October 10, 2018 Would obviously only be a backup at best but what a nothing player. Never seen him do anything whenever I’ve watched him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neio Posted October 12, 2018 Report Share Posted October 12, 2018 Baccus as a player isn't bad, neat player who can play a variety of positions. Not the best, but not the worst. We just don't need him though. He comes into an already stacked midfield, it's a strange move Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haz Posted October 12, 2018 Report Share Posted October 12, 2018 Not too keen, but I dont expect him to even make the bench somegames. Maybe he will turn into another Fitzy type player? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With MOH injured it actually means we might see Wales geting more games (hopefully improving). or less conflict between players who can play CAM & LW/RW. I doubt Baccus will even make the bench most games Edited October 12, 2018 by haz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Afif Adam Posted October 12, 2018 Report Share Posted October 12, 2018 Despite his issues, he’s played some decent games last season...he’s quick on feet determined on brave passes and has the height to win air balls...potentially some competition for Griffiths Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jw1739 Posted November 4, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2018 11 hours ago, haz said: If only we had signed Ikonomidis... There was media speculation that we were talking with a number of players during the off-season - and previously - but in the end these players signed elsewhere. CFG might be attractive to young players, because they can see a pathway to elsewhere if they're good enough. However, I'm not convinced that we're an attractive proposition to more mature players. Not convinced at all. We're not a successful club on the field, and some of our more highly publicised departures don't exactly reflect well on our player management. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mus-28 Posted November 4, 2018 Report Share Posted November 4, 2018 It's a big risk signing foreign players and hoping they'll adapt to the league, surely if there is a foreign player who comes into this league on a short term contract and excels we should be looking to sign them at the expiry of their contract for an immediate impact. Two from last season that come to mind are Leroy George and Pato Rodriguez, both would've made a huge impact in the final third instead of signing DeLaet and Berenguer. If CFG don't want to sign big name marquee players with over inflated wages at least stump up the money to sign players who are proven to be elite in this competition if they have genuine interest in this club being successful.
