Threlkeld to Belgium? (joins Waasland-Beveren - confirmed)
- Thread starter jimsing
- Start date
It's a shame that he he has departed, but I trust DA to find a good replacement for him.
He was a very steady right back, but perhaps not as dynamic as we all thought he would be once he had a good spell in that position - the injuries didn't help of course.
When I think of good Argyle right backs, I think of Gordon Nisbet, Mark Patterson, Garry Poole and Kenny Brown. That's the standard we should be aiming for in finding a replacement.

I've got a colossal waist and I'd like to thank him for his input and wish him all the best. Enjoyed watching him :thumbs:
Maybe he is a Europhile and realises that 2019 is no time for a young man to be living in Theresa Meh's Little Britain?

Good Luck to him. Quality professional and did a fantastic job for us. Easily one of the best timers of a headed ball I've seen for a while.
No brainer to move to a top league and the exposure to top level football that will bring. I don't understand the comments comparing Belgian top flight to upper league 1 level? Seriously!!

I think it's a real shame and I think Oscar's talents were the sort that passes under the radar. He certainly gave everything this season, he was completely spent at the end, nothing left in the tank.
My worry is that now we have an unknown quantity, a TBC, rather than a known, dependable player. DA's record isn't perfect when it comes to signings, I have been let down too many times by the likes of Cifci, Nardiello, Church, Paton etc.
I really really hope we get some decent transfers this summer.

It's a shame to see him leave as he was a real grafter in the team and threw himself in front of the ball every time. However I thank him for his efforts and wish him the best for his new experience abroad.
I feel we can replace him and that Emanuel player on loan at Rotherham would be the type of right back to fill the gap and some.
Adams has always replaced players with better players so with his increased budget I'm looking forward to seeing what we are able to get.

We don’t know what offer he had but you know, if I was a young man, I’d be up for a bit of European adventure, and in a top flight (Ok not a major league, but still top flight). Takes a bit of gumption to move abroad and far too many English players don’t. Thanks for the shift and good luck.
Adams and Threlkeld had a massive falling out over his injury in the autumn and unfortunately their relationship never recovered so he was always going to leave at the end of the season. Threlkeld played professionally for the rest of his contract and will go on to better things I am sure. However Adams will bring in a decent replacement- he has had one lined up for a while.
