Omar Alderete 🇵🇾 Signed!

[CheersMarra84]

Not looking too far forward but I think the snidey mag f*cka's, and we all know who I'm talking about, will get a surprise come derby day if we have a fully fit squad to choose from

We’ll surprise a few teams this season, especially at home. I’ve said that from the beginning. Just hope we can maintain it until December against that shower.

Seelt was superb….important member of the squad. May not start but will do a job when called upon. Hope he is ok after yedterdsy

Me too. I'm not bothered about getting another centre back. JS is still improving and looks like he will make it. Alderete looks a different level though.

 

[BucketBiff]

Love that we’ve got some hard bastards in the team now, Hume, Ballard, Alderete, Xhaka.

Diarra spurring the crowd on also, little things like that go a long way.

The feeling of togetherness from the playoffs has continued on into this season. Getting a win in your first game at home just feeds it. Absolutely class that 2nd half performance.

 

[Billy Fish]

Great defensive header out to Talbi to set Wilson away

 

[Ohnonotagain]

Far too good for us.

I still think you need one. The way Ballard plays he’s always going to pick up injuries.

 

[Ohnonotagain]

Ballard has always been my favourite and rightly deserved MoM.

However he now has competition, this guy looks the bollocks.

 

[YorkMackem]

Loved his first touch today!

There's only one thing I loved more, and that was the gasp from the crowd.

 

[tooliohelmet]

Thought he was just going to be a bruiser type. That changed within 30 seconds, looks like a superstar.

 

[MustardAndOnions]

He was class. Early days but today was a great advert for the recruitment strategy: calmness & leadership from Xhaka, Alderte & Reinaldo & dynamism from the young lads in midfield. Seem to have got the balance spot on.

It was great

Midfield was key but This lad looked good

 

[Spaceturtle]

Great cross for the goal. Looks a beast!

Calm on the ball as well

 

[MutantParvoParmo]

Immense, hope its not Stan Vargaesque debut. But no i think he is the real deal.

 

[Houghtoner]

Barely on the pitch long and he plonks one on Mayenda’s head for our first goal. Class.

 

[Magical Storyteller]

After a couple of touches you knew he was good.

 

[Mboma]

Aye, the lad looked calm and composed with a few nice touches and then casually pulling a 40yrd pass out of his arse!

Got a feeling he'll quickly become a fan favorite.

 

[Technics]

The boyo

 

[HettonSAFC]

Good post, but I can't be calling him Cyril. CLD just sounds wrong

Nice one..

 

[Hetty]

Starts next week then?

 

[mini-x2]

He was fantastic from his very first touch. I saw him play in the flesh last season when I went to watch a Getafe match, unaware to me obviously. Unlucky for Seelt like that he had to go off, Alderete will probably start next match now.

 

[YorkMackem]

Starts next week then?

Absolutely
