Darel Russell, an essentially defensive midfielder joins on loan until January 3rd. Very much a cover signing, my only concern about him is his disciplinary record. Only four games played this season, and already two yellow cards collected doesn't bode well, but it could be argued that he has had such little game time that he is being caught out due to lack of match fitness. The contra to that is that historically he doesn't have a very good record with referees either, having also managed to pick up two back to back red cards that effectively took him out for nearly a quarter of a season three years ago at Norwich.
What he does have though is experience at getting out of this division, and that combined with a tenacious fighting spirit are qualities that Charlton may well need to call on in the next month or so. Does this also mean that we will never see Alonso in the first team?

ReplyDeleteSadly not true. He is only out on loan, but should Bournemouth still want him come January, I will of course remove him :-)
