New Season underway...New signings for Walsall F.C

After easily winning promotion to the Championships, I've now embarked into a new campaign that is well underway with a few new arrivals but the team is pretty much the same  from last year Sky Bet One campaign.

New arrivals:

Mark Little,  right wing backs, signed on free transfer from Bristol City......after Carlos Edward retired, I really needed to fill this hole and Little was the best I could afford and so far, he's done well in the Championship.




Baily Cargill: Ball-Playing central back...Really needed left footed central back with composure and passing ability to fit my system and Baily attribute had what I was looking for. Cargill was signed on a free from league-1 Gillingham F.C.




Harry Wilson: right side inside forward, loanee from Liverpool. Needed an additional left footed right winger to compete with Kieron Morris who hasn't particularly played well so far. Wilson has dribbling and technique ability that would suit my Walsall team well.


Other acquisition were George Dobson, a defensive midfielder who was on loaned with me from West Ham. Decided to signed him on a free transfer.

Central backs Jason McCarthy and Kevin Toner who were both on loan with me last year, have also re-joined the team on another loan spell. Both played well last year in helping me obtain promotion into the Championships.


WonderKid Jesus Noriega had suffered in injury that forced him to missed the entire pre-season training camp, but he's back now and has already scored 3 goals in 5 appearances.

Sadly, Erhun Oztumer who was out the entire last season because of injury, again injured himself during training camp and will be out for an additional 4 weeks.
