Definitely, although different types of player.

Lee with little darting runs, short incisive passing and reliable defensively, ghosts into the box and can finish; Sadlier plays more long range, can beat a man and shoot/pass/cross accurately from distance, he can even head a ball offensively. 

We don't have anyone of that type, unfortunately defensively he's behind the others and he's not got the pace to justify playing wingback, so he isn't getting a regular starting place. 

IE never gave him a chance because he couldn’t play wing back,

So, begs the question, why did Evatt sign him in the first place?

His crystal ball must have been broken that week.

It did seem a strange signing

I still expect him to move on this summer

Whats worrying for me, is now Evatts saying Sadlier has a future with us, when he just been playing his football in the basement league? Very concerning, although i think Sadlier is a good player

Evatt has already said that Sadlier doesn't fit into our current system, just the usual spin that he's still got a future and he's a good player etc, just a matter of time before he's gone imo.

I hope not and maybe if IE actually tried him in the No10 role for a period of games he may settle into it better. He’s not a defender but I’m sure he could be coached/encouraged to press better from a more forward position. I just think Sads has so much to offer offensively that it would be a shame to lose him because he’s played in the wrong position. At the end of the day though it’s down to IE and if he doesn’t fit then it probably is better to let him go and bring someone more suitable in instead?

He signed him in January when we were still playing 4-3-3 then he switched to 3-5-2 and it worked which meant Sadlier couldn’t play as a winger anymore

Did lack a bit of foresight with that one. If 3-5-2 hadn’t been as successful at the start then we would probably be playing with Dapo left and Sadlier right next season

Crikey, I’d have loved that and I’m damned sure we’d be scoring a lot more goals if we did.

Saying Sad’s and talking offensively disqualify anything else said in that post

Wondered if Evatt might go for Peter Kioso from Rotherham as our second RWB with Dacres-Cogley.

Turf or grass seed, it shouldn't matter. Both need proper preparation. 

Seeding ought to be a lot cheaper, but takes longer to establish. 

Swings and roundabouts.

I saw some pictures and i dunno how much work got done but they were definitely doing more than a bucket of seeds and a watering can

So, ive no doubts itll be fine

Would have thought fresh turf would take root and knit together better than reseeding ?

He signed him after the switch of formation
