Mer tilfreds med denne signeringen. Han var god i Leicester, men har spilt lite i Tyrkia. Spent på matchfitnessen. Bamba og Cooper resten av sesongen?

Mannen har en obligatorisk kamp denne sesongen. Tviler på at to benkeslitere  fra Tyrkia og serie A er løsningen på problemene våre.

Bellusci er jo rett og slett ikke type for Championship.....han blir for veik i duellspillet - så gjerne for meg!

Dessverre på denne hyllen vi må legge oss, når vi ikke kan betale noe i hverken overgangssum eller lånepenger. Da blir det benkeslitere...

BAMBA SEALS UNITED MOVE
International defender completes loan switch to Elland Road...

PUBLISHED 23 JANUARY 2015 AT 02:00


11 1SOL BAMBA
Leeds United can now confirm Ivory Coast international Sol Bamba has completed a loan switch from Palermo for the remainder of the season.

The former Leicester City defender becomes United’s first signing of the January transfer window.

Bamba, an experience centre-back, is an established part of the Ivory Coast set-up with 44 caps to his name, and completed all three of their World Cup group games over the summer.

The 30-year-old progressed through the youth system at Paris Saint-Germain before going on to spend five years in Scotland with Dunfermline Athletic and then Hibernian.

January 2011 saw him move to English football as he re-united with former Ivory Coast boss Sven-Goran Eriksson in the Championship with Leicester City.

Bamba made a dream debut for the Foxes, scoring with his first touch in a 2-2 FA Cup draw with Manchester City.

The defender made a total of 55 appearances at Leicester, scoring four times, before going on to join Turkish outfit Trabzonspor in 2012.

He made the switch to Palermo last summer, penning a three-year deal, but has been restricted to just one appearance in Serie A so far this season.

Sett intervjuet med Sol og artig at Gradel har tekstet han og fortalt litt om klubben i positivt fortegn.

[Jon R]

God debut. Krysser fingre for at han får en annen prestasjonskurve enn 90 % av stopperne vi har brukt de siste 5 åra.

22 clearances; 11 battles won: Sol Bamba solid on Leeds debut

Leeds United defeated Huddersfield 2-1 on Saturday with debutant Sol Bamba impressing for the visitors.

Leeds United made it four games undefeated and two consecutive victories as they overcame local rivals Huddersfield 2-1 this weekend.

The game looked to be heading for a draw when late substitute Billy Sharp popped up to score a vital goal for Neil Redfearn’s side.

That came after Sam Byram had seen his early strike cancelled out by Huddersfield’s Harry Bunn.

Leeds have seen some changes to their playing squad in recent times with Sol Bamba and Granddi Ngoyi arriving at Elland Road, and the former made his debut on Saturday.

The 30-year-old Ivorian looked solid throughout, and a quick look at his statistics below shows just how important he was to the club’s victory.

Bamba will want to work on his passing accuracy, which was just 69 per cent on Saturday, but his defensive contributions were considerable.

   Passing Accuracy   Touches   Duels Won   Aerials Won   Interceptions Won   Effective Clearances   Effective Headed Clearance   Mins Played
Sol Bamba   69%   49   7   4   7   13   9   90

Leeds' new centre-back won 11 battles (seven on the ground and four in the air) while he made a remarkable 22 effective clearances to keep the opponents at bay, with 13 of those coming with his feet and the other nine with his head.

Bamba also made seven interceptions and he already looks like being a cool and imposing addition to Redfearn's side.

Now the trick is to do that week in, week out, and if he can, Leeds may soon be heading further up the Championship table once again.

Den derre HITC websiten er ganske irriterende:


Leeds United defender Sol Bamba has suggesting to the Yorkshire Evening Post how the club can progress after one appearance in the first team.

“We play very good football sometimes, but we have to dig deep now. It doesn’t matter how good you play, you have to get some points,” said Bamba.

Billy Sharp f.eks. ...... og Redfearn:
Sharp on Redfearn's message

Leeds United striker Billy Sharp says that Neil Redfearn is trying to keep the squad focused on the task ahead.

The Whites could be forgiven for getting carried away after beating Huddersfield Town 2-1 last weekend, but Sharp says that Redfearn is repeatedly ensuring that they only look ahead to the next game.

"Redders keeps telling us to take it game by game," he said to the club's official site. "Every game in this division is tough. "We have to go into each game with a gameplan and always stay in the game. Then we can pick up as many points as possible."

Men Bamba bomma litt. Det var motsatt på lørdag; ikke spilte vi bra og enda tok vi tre poeng...

Denne signeringen tenkte jeg måtte bli klasse. Har ikke turt å si noe fordi det har en tendens til å backfire, men nå tenker jeg å dele det jeg tenkte da vi signerte denne stopperen. Da han sist spilte i Championship for Leicester imponerte han stort. Han var Championships beste stopper og føler egentlig han er på samme nivå. Tror ikke han passet inn i Italiensk fotball og derfor aldri fikk etablert seg i Palermo. Nå spiller han kamp inn og kamp ut og han passer mitt i blinken her i England. Håper vi signer denne klassestopperen fra Palermo og har absolutt ingen tro på at han blir en ny Zaliukas(eller ka han nu het). Vårt missing link var ikke en etterlengtet ving, det var godeste Sol Bamba. All hail the new king in the heart of our defence!

Uheldig for Cooper at han ble skadet, men flaks for oss da Bellusci er hakket bedre. La oss håpe Bellusci og Bamba fullfører sesongen sammen der bak

[p0ndus]

Håper ikke han også blir en spiller som briljerer første 5 kamper, og som reduseres til stallfyll når 3 års kontrakten er signert.
