Breaking News Jamar Loza Joins Southend

[Forever A Shrimper]

Details TBC. Confirmed by CP on Facebook.

Excellent. If he can play like he did against Oxford on that televised game, he's worth his weight in..... something reasonably valuable. With Tyrone here now Loza's pace could be very valuable indeed, and I recall he was a good crosser of the ball.

Let's be optimistic - this could be an excellent new striking partnership for us. Onward and upward!

 

[Forever A Shrimper]

I plan on determining an immovable opinion on the Loza/Barnett partnership by the third minute of the Shrewsbury game.

You won't see that partnership at the Shrewsbury game

Especially if he's not in the starting 11.

Especially if he's not in the starting 11.

I presume you are referring to Barnett ........ and I also presume that you are confirming that Barnett will not be allowed to play. Please confirm.

As for Loza joining, I wonder if that confirms that other players (particularly Worrall) are moving away. I also wonder about McLaughlin's fitness for the remainder of the season.

Still, interesting times. How long a contract has Loza been offered? Just till the end of the season with an option to extend? Or a longer term deal?

 

[Ricey]

Good bit of business by PB. It's looking a better strike force than it did at the start of the season.

Welcome back Jamar.

Who we dropping for Loza then?

He wouldn't be getting in my team till he earns a spot. Can't drop anyone after beating Cov 3-0

 

[Ricky Otto]

I'm pretty sure Tyrone can't play as per his loan agreement so Loza may start, i'd give Hunt the nod personally though

Indeed - that's why I am thinking he will be on the bench instead of Worrall or Mooney or McQueen ....... come to think of it, it's all a little crowded isn't it?

Perhaps - but that is just the one game and I am sure Browny must have more than just cover for a game in Salop in mind.

We are going to need a bigger bench!!

Forgot about that but yeah Hunt all day long. Have to stick with the formation and Hunt will certainly win more headers up on his own than Loza.

Obviously
Can see Loza getting most of his minutes off the bench when we need an injection of pace

 

[tottenham541]

Brown has one hell of a selection headache now for the Shrewsbury game, a good one tho:smile:

 

[Sandbach Shrimper]

Don't think we really needed another striker but he does give us a pace option off the bench. Is Brown starting to build a squad for next season, perhaps?

 

[ChalkwellShrimper]

Correct, TB won't feature for us v Shrews.

He does offer an alternative to what we have so if he can add quality to his pace then will be useful. Needs to be more than just "quick" though, but they took a good look at him and thought he would be useful so cant argue with that.

 

[Shrimpet]

:thumbsup:As long as jack payne plays,pb can select who ever he wants! Best player by far

 

[RobB11]

Barnett and Loza in, Williams and Pigott out.

Upgrades and good business done by Brown :thumbsup:

Also pushes the woeful Mooney further down the pecking order which is only a good thing.
