Le Fondre is a Royal !

Ah, and now hear that Brett Williams is going to the Millers on loan until (at least) end of January 2012!

A goalscorer is always a goalscorer imo and given chances he will score, just depends on how he can improve with the step up in defending to how many chances he will get. Great move for Williams, still hasn't played professional level football yet so vital that he gets minutes.

My worry is we just don't look to be at the sharpness we need to and only seem to start playing when behind, with Ledge and Kara in midfield if the two wingers can't get in the game then without Shane to do his one man act we really struggle to create chances which will hinder Alfie before we start, as since the opening game we haven't really looked like scoring from open play, and haven't from what I remember Haven't even mentioned our inablity to keep a clean sheet.

Hopefully I'm overanalysing and Brian has turned these runs around before, if don't move up a gear or two and without someone stepping up to the plate, looks like a tough season, Watford and Donny at home next are going to be nervy games!

Alfie's debut tomorrow v. Watford very, very likely ...
