Premiere League Season 2023-2024 - Walsall Lose first game

After a decent transfer window bringing a few new players in, Walsall manages too lose their first match of young season, going down in defeat 2 to 1 against Newcastle United. Despite controlling possession on a 55% clip and putting more shots on target 23 to 13, we still could not manage to come up with the 3 points to start the season.

Guillermo Arastey scored Walsall lone goal which was set up by Jesus Noriega.

2023-2024 Walsall new Arrivals so far

So far we've signed 3 new players,  Forward Gareth Bale,  striker Wayne Lockwood and  Cental-Back Carlos Delem.

Wayne Lockwood was signed from Championship outfit Crystal Palace and will be counted on to replace the soon departing Odsonne Edouard who hasn't been the same since his first year with Walsall when he won the FWA English player of the year.

Gareth Bale is now 33 year olds but still retain great mental attribute, so we decided to sign him to help out with the younger players and give the team an extra left footed forward that can play across the 3 forward positions.

My key signing for this season is French central back Carlos Delem who will strengthen our defense and start alongside Cameron Carter-Vickers which means Hause will have to move to LB in which he has plenty of experience playing.
