Site Supporter Biggish Dave Posted May 26, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted May 26, 2021 A summer without turmoil, brilliant. Happy enough with Isgrove staying, i've certainly changed my opinion of him from around Feb onwards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimmyRiddle Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Isgrove always reminds me of a poor man's Stelios. Not quite an out and out winger, and rarely flamboyant, beating people etc, but clearly grafts and has the confidence of the manager to fit into the team shape. Good signing.

Members Rudy Posted May 26, 2021 Members Share Posted May 26, 2021 I will say this in defence of Dapo, when he doesn’t have time to think and is closed down quick he’s excellent, when he’s given space he can be a bit sloppy, I think he’ll flourish in being in a quicker league next season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But league one we drop down we sell them on, stay up and have a load of players on 1 year deals it’s a lot of graft and dollar to resign them again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmjhb Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 (edited) Matt Smith is 6ft 6, would give us something different, might give us a chance from set pieces for a change Edited May 26, 2021 by jmjhb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deanu Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Great grafter is Lloyd Christmas & he seems to have a good connection with Jones developing on that right side. His agility allows him to turn full backs inside out & have them on toast so hopefully he continues with the extra bit of quality in the final third like he showed at the last push of the season. He's also 28 now & has played very little football in his career so far for whatever reason but he should be at his physical peak now & have a lot to give to our squad. Dapo will be a quality pick up, the sort of signings we should be making. His ability to carry the ball under pressure & get us up the pitch will be priceless. He obviously has a lot of raw ability & has a great attitude to match in terms of work rate. Evatt did say he wants his wingers to get in at the back post & get goals so hopefully they can kick on. If we get Dapo/John & add them to the likes of Rico/Politic/Thomason theirs a good few players who we can mould into assets for the club which is much better than overpaying journeymen like we used to.

Mounts Kipper Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 (edited) Ched evans was shite against us for Fleetwood, don’t think he’s the type we need, would be a big no for me. Edited May 26, 2021 by Mounts Kipper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
