Quoted from Les Brechin
It's Alabi, in fact to be totally correct his full name is James Bamidele Oluwatemi Alabi.

Looking at the (few) stats on Alabi I've found on the internet (6 feet 1 inch, beefy, left-footed) he might have a sub's role replacing Monkhouse - who can't last 90 mins of every match IMO - allowing us to continue with the same style of play. PH clearly likes to play that way as he's always picked a fit Monkhouse to start, and at the moment we have to play rather differently when we sub Monkey.

Given that Alabi can be used as a 'battering ram' centre forward too, looks an interesting signing to me. Can't believe there'll be any issues with his ability, having read the Ipswich fans' comments about him.

As long as we keep Jones looks like a decent addition.

I think he will probably keep Jones, he's a different option and looks a player.


Hope so. I like the look of Jones but we can't accommodate them all in the matchday squad, so is it feasible to have 2 loan strikers? Depends on the injury situation i suppose.

CAN WE BRING HIM ON EACH TIME WE WIN A CORNER ?

Why do we hardly ever score from these dead ball situations?

Will Jones move backwards into a central midfield role if he stays?

To be fair, a power forward could be another option, in tight games when opponents play ten at the back !
