Hopefully he's a good player and ball winner. I don't really understand signing these young loanees from other clubs though when we need experience. If we want to try and improve our youngsters then may as well play our own. Not that it helps our youngsters but he's not a loanee and has signed for an undisclosed fee.

Shout out to Hugh something on here for calling it. Must say I was a bit more excited before when he said ‘we’re signing a championship midfielder’.
Still, can’t judge him until we’ve seen him. Would really like a striker tbh, that’s what 8 CMs now? Didn’t Ben want a squad of 20? He’s nearly got that just in CM 😂

I would of preferred it if we had just given someone like Tom Mehew or Cameron Hargreaves a bit more time in the first team rather than getting in another young midfielder from elsewhere if I’m quite honest but prepared to give the lad a chance. We’ve bought him

That's more encouraging then, still think we need more experience though.

Agree. We know the potential Hargreaves has and I actually thought Mehew was even better in the two cup games. Good luck to the lad anyway!

defensive midfielder and apparently also plays centre back. I've read he's 5'7", so centre back? Naturally left footed will help, but I thought a priority would be striker type of player? Nevertheless, for 2 years at least, welcome...
