Jermaine Jenas
oh ok... thought I remembered him being on the bench a few times while Chiriches got the nod
I might be wrong mate!

Live? 4 times - each with the Sounders. On TV - often as I watch the MLS because of the Sounders and Whitecaps. I hope he makes the transition - I'm not hating on the kid - I just don't want people thinking he's going to step in and replace Walker.
Yep, Naughton isn't as bad as some make out imo and offers a more defensive head. He's also pretty decent on the ball.
Hasn't Friedel got a British passport yet?
As a back-up RB for a team which is 5th - 7th in the league, I agree he's OK. However as a like for like replacement for Walker, Yedlin is infinitely better and better for teh style of our team as we desperately need the full backs to give us width
Also, if we're aiming for a top 4 spot and to be able to have a realistic shot of that top 4 position not just being a one-off, then you need two decent players per position. Yedlin means that at RB we now have that, as with GK,....there's not many other positions though
I hope we give him time to settle into a new country and style of play before we start ****ging him off if he does not start well.[-o<
Yes, and you do that by not rushing him in to a standard of football he's clearly not ready for - I can see him going to somewhere like Millwall on loan for the rest of the season - do him the world of good.
He doesn't have to be overly good for now: just better than, say, Naughton. And I think his pace will allow him to accomplish that even if Naughton is somewhat better defensively atm.
Maybe we'll get him a loan to a Prem club. We loaned Walker to Villa iirc, Naughton to Norwich too.
Harry might take him at QPR, let him adjust to the league that way. Naughton as Walker's backup i fine for the 2nd half of this season imo, then we can have Yedlin in the squad for the summer.
