SPECULATION - Carlos Bocanegra

[Top Flight]

Fulham have released the classy & Versatile US international leftback.

He could be a very good replacement for Nicky Shorey. At least in the short-term anyway.

[southsideroyal]

Could be a good move. I doubt wages would be a problem.

one of the US players I rate

Bocanegra is absolutely abysmal on the wing. He's good a fouling people in the most inopportune time in the most dangerous position possible.

We were talking left back not wing MrYankee. We already got Convey and Hunt as wingers.

Good short term fix at LB. Someone who could do a fine job in the CCC while we wait another year to find out what Golbourne's got.

[Row Z Royal]

Yes please!

So you dont think a LB should be able to go forward?

FWIW wikip says primarily a CB but used at LB and holding CM by Fulham, and CB by USA

Not seen him so cant comment, his record looks ok, international breaks could be a problem though.

Someone above wanted to replace Shorey with Bocanegra. That's a disaster. He's a CB only. That's why i said he's terrible on the wing. Watch in the friendly tomorrow. He gets beat with pace and most of his tackles are whistled. He'll give up at least one free kick in a very dangerous spot tomorrow.

Brian McBride is leaving Fulham despite wanting to stay.

He would be a superb signing IMO.

Because he wants to move back to America...

In fact that whole part is completely inaccurate.

McBride was offered a new one year deal which he turned down to move back to the States, so why would he move to the championship?

[Alan Partridge]

Just spotted this, I agree

Annoying though last January, in our first season in the Prem, he signed a 1 year extension at Fulham.

We couldn't have done much worse than making a move on a 1 year basis for him then.
