Lamare Bogarde

We're looking to bring Bogarde on loan till end of season so they say

thoughts on his strengths  . decent player ? OK for championship football etc ?

I really could not comment as not seen that much of him.

But if he is from us then he is going to be half decent i believe

[pablo_picasso]

He's very quick.

He can play CB, RB, CDM, so is versatile, but seems to prefer CDM of late.

He's 6'1", comfortable on the ball, can pick a pass, can break up play, has good energy, & likes to drive forward with the ball at his feet from CDM.

He's highly rated at Villa, but with all youngsters, he's far from the finished article & is still a bit raw all round the edges.

But physically, especially with his rapid speed, he is pretty decent, so with the rest of his skills, he should be half decent & get better as time progresses.

Weirdly, I think it was Joey Barton who has got the best out of him at Bristol Rovers so far, but he was mostly in defensive mode.

If he can get a loan to a club that play possession football, we may see a more creative role from him as a deep laying playmaker.

Might be better to check on a Bristol Rovers forum as he's had a couple of loan spells there, so they've seen more of him recently than we have in our reserves.

Is your keyboard broken Dinas? Tsk!

Sunderland are meant to be in for him as well.

[AV84]

Never mind.

A non-Villan starts a player thread that, who knows, may grow to 100+ pages (50 if you're Legion). Unintentionally ballsy, fair fucks.

A mate of mine is a Gashead and says he is skilful and decent on the ball, as expected. He has been pleasantly surprised by how well he has coped with the physicality of League 1  I have no idea if this means he is ready for the championship.

Pretty much exactly what I hear from my Rovers mate.He wanted them to keep him for the season. An upgrade to the championship sounds like a positive for the player and us.

I thought it was poor that Bogarde wasn't with a championship team this season.

To have him at a League one side and not even get a game is ridiculous for such a talented player!

Whose coat is this jacket?

[dorsetvillian]

I saw him play for Bristol Rovers at Forest Green. Looked very calm on the ball and able to handle the physicality of men's football.
