On your Bikey

Not sure about you, but I’m still trying to get my head around last night. In the meantime the Addicks have made their 4th summer signing with 29-year old André Bikey joining the ranks on a 2-year deal.

Bikey can play at centre-half or at right back and has played 150 games between the Premier League and The Championship. What I like most, is that he is a bit of a brute, and we could do with that as I think we’ve shown a little bit of a soft underbelly in recent seasons.

Bikey was in Greece last season and I would think Peeters is keen to put him through a rigorous pre-season. Bikey will compete with Joe Gomez and Harry Lennon for the berth next to Morrison. Whether Peeters feels he needs Tal Ben Haim as well, we’ll have to wait and see.
