If someone questions a signing from non-league, a young player or any player for that matter, it shouldn't be taken as a blanket statement on signing players from non-league or whatever. It's just a personal opinion or observation on that individual concerned. Agreed, and that’s not what I was saying really. At least I now know that Ayunga, Barrett, and Daly specifically are seen as not good enough. Wasn’t intended to annoy, was a genuine question about where the squad is now vs who we’d bring in to supplement. Barrett has potential if he's fit, Daly works hard, is versatile and is a former scholar of the year at Palace so probably has potential and the scouting department have seen something in Ayunga that they feel can develop. My opinion is it is risky going into one of the most competitive League One seasons for years relying on Ayunga and Daly to score goals at this level if JCH gets injured or suffers a loss of form.

20 year old forward Benjamin Mbunga-Kimpioka could be a decent option on a free transfer. Tall versatile player who can play either up front or as a winger. Turned down a contract at Sunderland and could be a good understudy to JCH and Ayunga.

I see Blackpool have signed Ethan Robson from Sunderland. He had a good loan spell at Grimsby last season. Good signing for them.

26 year old striker Joe Mason could add something to us. Just returned to Wolves from a loan spell at Burton where he was unlucky with injuries, perhaps wolves may consider loaning him to League one to regain his form? Another player we could look to get on loan is Sheffield Wednesday midfielder Sean Clare. Gillingham fans rated him highly during his loan spell there and I feel we could do with another CM, especially now we have no wingers. Sean Clare has signed for Oxford from Hearts for £150,000. I think that’s a steal for Oxford if I’m honest, good player.

He’s a lot better in central midfield than he is at right back, a position Hearts tried to shoehorn him into to fit in the side. Didn’t have the best spell up in Scotland but I think he’ll do better in a side like Oxford who employ a possession based style of football.

Jack Payne is similar to Kyle Bennett, starts off really well then either gets complacent or other teams start to work him out. He is a bit lightweight and we can do better if we wanted that sort of player imo

I really like the lad Ryan Cassidy at Watford and if we could get him on loan I reckon he would score goals for us. Outstanding prospect. Season loan to Accrington. www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/53700877
